8 0

Answer:

mutations

Explanation:

Mutations are changes in DNA sequence that can create genetic variation within the population and thus are the ultimate source of new alleles . Mutations are important for evolution because of their ability to form a new genetic variant (allele) that can be spread to the offspring.  If a new variant of a trait formed by a mutation is advantageous and helps the organism to survive and reproduce,  it is going to be favourable by natural selection. That  variation will more likely be passed to the next generation and remain over time.

When enzyme action stops due to a build up of end product, this control is called..?
Papessa [141]
This control is called negative feedback. Mechanism of negative feedback. Each metabolic reaction or process is regulated by several enzymes. These enzymes control the rate of these reactions and thus are fundamental in maintaining homeostasis. In a negative-feedback pathways, the end product of  a pathway binds to the allosteric site of the first enzyme, closing its active site and blocking the rest of the reactions.
