Answer:
Function. Ribosomes are minute particles consisting of RNA and associated proteins that function to synthesize proteins. Proteins are needed for many cellular functions such as repairing damage or directing chemical processes. Ribosomes can be found floating within the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum
Answer:
Natural selection leads to adaptation, that is, to a population dominated by organisms that are anatomically, behaviorally, and physiologically well suited to survive and reproduce in a specific environment. ... Species become extinct because they can no longer survive and reproduce in their altered environment.
Explanation:
It is a complex cycle of mostly phosphorylation (adding or removing phosphate) and oxidative (electron removal) chemical reactions whereby 6 molecules of CO2 are converted into one molecule of glucose. It requires the energy-releasing cleavage of high energy bonds of 18 ATPs and 12NADPHs .

Please find the explanation below.
Explanation:
Changes in the genetic sequence of a DNA is called MUTATION. A gene is a segment of the DNA that holds information for the synthesis of proteins, which are responsible for the observable traits in organisms. The expression of a gene brings about the synthesis of a protein that effects a particular trait in an organism. The gene is expressed in two major stages viz: transcription and translation.
Transcription involves production of an mRNA molecule using the encoded information in the genes of a DNA while translation is the synthesis of a protein using the mRNA as a template.
Since, the order of the sequence in a gene determines the order of the sequence in the mRNA which ultimately determines the order of sequence in the protein, a change in the gene of an organism will affect the observed trait of that organism.
More detailedly, a change in the gene will cause a change in the mRNA sequence during transcription. A change in the mRNA sequence will cause a change in the amino acid sequence during translation. A change in the amino acid sequence will affect the protein produced i.e. might not be functional or may not be produced at all. An affected protein will cause a trait in that organism to be affected.
