<u>Answer:</u> Mutations are the most fundamental way to add new genes to a gene pool.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mutation refers to the process through which the normal sequence of altered. It may be either acquired or hereditary. It leads to addition of new genes to a gene pool.
The reason for not considering other statements as true are:
1. It is the hereditary mutation that are passed form parent to offspring's and acquired mutation is caused by external factors.
2. Acquired mutation are caused by external factors such as radiation.
3. Germ line mutation are important to evolution because they can be inherited.
Answer: 6
Explanation:The number of protons present in the nucleus of an atom is known as Atomic Number. Atomic Number helps in determining the chemical properties of an atom. Thus it is given that the given ion contains 6 protons thus the atomic number of the ion will be six. hope this helps

Answer:
Accurate - Yes
Precise - Yes
Explanation:
Accuracy and precision are two ways to detect the closeness of measured values in an experiment. However, these two terms do not mean the same thing.
Accuracy of a measurement refers to how close a measurement (experimental values) is to a true or actual value while the precision of a measurement refers to how close the experimental or measured values are to one another.
Note that, a measurement may be accurate but not precise or be precise but not accurate.
In the case of the dart board in the image, it is evident that the measured values (represented by darts) are close to the middle target (represents the known or accepted mark). Hence, the measurements are said to be ACCURATE. Likewise, the measured values are also close to one another, meaning that they are PRECISE.
Therefore, the measurements are both precise and accurate.
