The answer is a. Nitrogen
Hereditary mutation - may be passed to another generation, occurs in gametes, variation that may enhance survival.
Somatic mutation - not passed from generation to generations, occurs in body cells.
Both- changes in DNA.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Mutations are defined as sudden changes in DNA that takes place by changing a particular nucleotide or a portion of DNA, or even a whole chromosome which has potential to change characters of an organism. Mutation was first proposed by Hugo de Vries who is also known as the Father of Mutation Theory.
Mutations can occur in any cell of body. It may occur in somatic cells, or in germ mother cells. But the mutations that occur in germ mother cells are actually the mutations that are carried forward by the gametes into next generations. Mutation in somatic cells get obliterated as the organism dies. And the Mutation in gamete cells are those mutations which are capable to cause variations in progenies which can led to better survival of the progenies.
To answer this question, let us first mention what is food danger zone. Well, this refers to the temperature range in which bacteria grows faster in the food. The range is defined as 30 to 140 degree Fahrenheit or can be converted into 4 to 60 degree Celsius. Going back to the question, the maximum number of hours that a food can be held in the food danger zone is only 2 hours. Beyond this 2 hours, the food is not safe to be eaten and the person who dares to eat this food might get some illness and worst might experienced food poisoning.
