The answer is <span>C) Species are populations that interbreed and produce fertile offspring</span>

Species is a group of similar organisms able to reproduce (to exchange genes and interbreed) only within the group and produce fertile offspring. That means that organisms from different species could not exchange genes. Even if they do in some cases, there are pre- and postzygotic mechanisms which prevent having them fertile offspring.

ehidna [41]

Theory of natural selection by Charles Darwin explains the moth appearance in England. The theory of genetics describes this as a mere shift of trait due to environmental factors.

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

Peppered moths are the moths found in England from a long time ago. The environment before the industrial revolution was pure and pollution free, which led to the growth of the white variety of moths as they were able to camouflage better with the bark of the trees from their hunters. The white trait were the parents, and fertilization between the two recessive traits gave rise to the recessive traits only.

But with the industrial revolution, the pollution increased to a huge extent, leading to deposition of smokes and soot on trees bark where white variety of the white moths got easily recognizable. This led to the black moths which now can camouflage better. Thus the nature selected black variety over white variety for better survival, and the white variety reduced dramatically.

Predict which responses would occur in cells exposed to the a+b signaling molecules
lukranit [14]
<span>Cell responses b and c would both occur when cell exposed to the a+b signaling molecules. The presence of the C signaling molecule will lead to cell response c. Cell response b occurs because the activation of c2 in the C pathway stimulates b1, leading to cell response b. Cell response A remains inactivated because it is inhibited by pathway b activation and its signaling molecule was not present.</span>

Pavel [41]
The statement above is TRUE.
T cells are part of the white blood cells and function in the immune system response of the body. T cells function by destroying infected cells. T cells can be activated either by T cell receptor engagement with the antigen or by the signal that is produced by the receptor ligand interactions.
