Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The earth's core is extremely hot due to which the outer core is liquid in nature and it plays the most significant role in the plate tectonic movement, where the convection cells are formed in the mantle that drives the plates to move over the less dense layer of the asthenosphere.

The scenario would have completely changed if there were no heat energy trapped in the core of the earth. In absence of this heat source, the rocks that are present in both the outer core and asthenosphere would have been entirely solid in nature. The convection current also would have not formed in the mantle and the plates would have remained stationary.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Explain the relationship between mutations, adaptations, natural selection, and extinction
Musya8 [376]

Mutations and natural selection cause adaptations. Mutations can cause instant adaptations, while natural selection is the process by which adaptations occurs over a series of generations.  

Adaptations are changes or processes of changes by which an organism or species becomes better suited for its environment.  

A mutation is an alteration of the DNA sequence. Sometimes such alterations code for the same amino acid sequence as the unaltered DNA strand during protein synthesis. In such a circumstance, the mutation is not detectable. However, other mutations alter the genetic code in such a way that a noticeable change in the trait that is associated with that gene is visible. Sometimes such mutations are advantageous and improve the organism's ability to survive in its environment.  

Natural selection is the process by which organisms with more advantageous traits (being camouflaged, being covered with the correct outer covering for the temperatures of that environment, stronger/ larger/ or faster to fight off or run from predators, etc.) are more likely to survive in a particular environment. Likewise, organisms less advantageous traits are more likely to die due to the pressures exerted by the environment (such as temperature, predators, illness, etc.). Therefore, the organisms with the advantageous traits that survive are more likely to survive to find a mate and reproduce. Thus, the advantageous traits are passed down to future generations.
