1)The answer is D.

Thorns are an adaptation that some plants have evolved in order to discourage herbivore from eating the plant. Plants would try to survive when there are environmental pressures (herbivores eating them in this case) so they would evolve to have thorns.

It is not A because bigger leafs (more surface area for absorbing the sunlight) would help plants produce more food from photosynthesis, not thorns.

It's not B because it is an adaptation, not JUST mutation, but it did happen from changing some letters in the DNA sequence to evolve.

It's not C because thorns doesn't help conserve resources from getting used by others. The thorns of cactus decreases the loss of water from the sunlight because it is normally in the desert so it can survive, not protect resources.

Andru [333]

There are mountain ranges in the middle of the ocean floor. Because of the higher elevation gravity pushes down on the edges of the plates. This is called ridge push.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Ridge push is a simple explanation of the height of the landforms based on the gravity and the elasticity of the underlying rock. It says when a landform gets too much higher, the weight of the overlying rock and soil pushes the landform back to plains. Thereby an equilibrium is maintained.  

Slab pull is a theory proposed which visualizes the earth interior as a pool of hot molten lava that has a convection current going on. It explains why the crust of the earth continuously moves slowly and forms mountains and other rift valleys.

A challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species came from embryology, when it was discovered that embryos of dissimilar organisms, such as sharks and humans, resemble each other. Embryology involves the study of the formation and the development of an embryo and the fetus. It is one type of evidence of evolution such that the embryos of many different kinds of animals, mammals, reptiles, birds, fish among others, are similar showing a common ancestry.
