Answer:
D. Thick stems and leaves were selected because succulents with these characteristics are more likely to survive hot, dry weather and, thus, produce more offspring
Explanation:
The succulents have not always been as they are now, but they have evolved from plants that looked different and existed in different weather conditions. As the environment has been changing, in order to survive, the succulents started to develop traits that would be advantageous for them to survive in the hot and dry weather. The succulents that started to develop such traits, like the thick stem and leaves were the ones selected to survive, as they were the ones that had the advantage in this type of environment. The thick stems and leaves enabled them to store as much water as possible when there is, and also to preserve it for long periods of time, while the succulents that didn't possessed this traits died out because they were not able to sustain the new conditions, nor to be able to reproduce effectively.
Answer:
The correct answer is - substitution.
Explanation:
Substitution mutations are the point mutations that are the mutations that least likely affect the trait of an organism or have no effect at all. Substitution mutations take place when there is only one nucleotide base is substituted by another nucleotide base in the DNA or RNA of an organism's genome.
In this case, there is no effect found on the protein formed by these DNA sequences. These substitution mutations generally found in somatic cells and have little to no effect at all.

Lithium A Opaque solid with higher density
Lead B Malleable, soft, and shiny
Flourine C Highly Reactive Gas
Krypton D Non reactive gas

B - They both use protein channels (I think so at least) they differ because active transports use a pump to leave the cell and it uses atp (cell energy).
In general, a calculated answer cannot be more precise than the least precise measurement from which it was calculated
