The right answer is C. sex cells.

Like all cells, a somatic cell can mutate.

* A somatic mutation, if it is "viable" (if it does not kill the cell, organ or organism that carries it), and if it is not controlled by the body (apoptosis, confinement of the mutated cell) can give rise to new identical cell lines, thus carrying the same mutation.

* In so-called evolved animals (which can not clone naturally), this mutation affects only the organ or the organism concerned, but will not be transmitted to the offspring of the individual.

Answer:

C. But see the answer under C. Apparently C is the accepted answer.

Explanation:

A. Not A.I don't think that's a problem for gulls especially on beaches.

B. Not B.  Their feather do not look like they need much help in keeping their feathers attached when in flight.

C. This is not really the answer, but it is the best answer of these 4. The actual answer is that the bones are porous for better air intake which provides more oxygen and hence they are better able to fly.

D. Not D. Food has nothing to do with the problem. Birds get an adequate amount of food without their wings being porous. See the answer for C.

The prevalence rate is the total number of cases of a disease existing in a population divided by the total population.

The prevalence rate of disease A = 225 per 100,000 population while the prevalence rate of disease B = 500 per 100,000 population.

Therefore, the burden of diseases A and B in country Z is that Disease B has a higher prevalence than

disease A.
