Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.
For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.
Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.

Answer:
C) translation rate
Explanation:
The process of gene expression involves DNA transcription into mRNA and translation of mRNA into protein.
During transcription, genetic message in DNA is encoded into mRNA. The encoded messages are then translated into their respective amino acids during the process of translation.
<em>Hence, if a virus uses its genome as mRNA, the next stage will be to translate the messages in the mRNA into amino acids. Translation rate is expected to be measurable.</em>
The correct option is C.
When Went placed the agar block on one side of the decapitated shoot, the shoot curved away from the agar as it grew. This demonstrated that some kind of hormonal signal had diffused into the agar from the coleoptile tips. ... Went's experiment represented the first time that anyone had isolated a hormone from plants.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-formation of heterochromatin
Explanation:
Methylation of DNA is the epigenetic mechanism which controls the expression of a gene by adding a methyl group to the cytosine bases in eukaryotic DNA.
The methylation of DNA converts the cytosine residues to the 5-methylcytosine catalysed by DNA methyltransferase enzyme. This results in the silencing of the gene and transcription get switched off.
Studies have shown that DNA methylation is involved in the formation and maintenance of the heterochromatin structure which is the condensed form of the chromatin in which transcription is switched off.
Thus, the formation of heterochromatin is the correct answer.
