A mistake in DNA replication before meiosis produces an organism that is better able to outrun predators.

Explanation:

The genetic variation results from the different alleles of a population. The mutation or mistake in DNA replication would cause gene variants which may be beneficial. The variation in the DNA sequence of genome results in variants in small population.

Genetic variation is the cause of natural selection and eventually, evolution takes place with beneficial traits.

It is mentioned in the question that resulting offspring having received the mutant allele could result in better surviving capabilities or phenotypic traits as they are able to outrun predators.

A plant is homozygous for flower color. Its flowers are pink.
Mashutka [201]

The correct answer is A. Flower color is a recessive trait.

The recessive gene does not show its effect in heterozygous condition according to Mendel’s law of dominance. Thus, in heterozygous condition, dominant gene determines the phenotype for a trait. In this question a plant is homozygous for flower color. This indicates that pink flower determining gene can only be expressed in homozygous condition. Therefore, flower color is a recessive trait.

Which of the following is mainly responsible for the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Kisachek [45]
I could be wrong here but I think factories and animals are 2 ways carbon gets into the air because animals breath out carbon, while factories pollute the air with carbon. If anything I would think plants are responsible for removing it because they give out oxygen.
