Answer: The correct answer for the first question is- B) Mechanical.
Adaptation can be described as a process of change in an organism over time that facilitates its survival in the changing environmental conditions. It results due to mutation or genetic change in the individual that gives a benefit to the organism. It exhibits change in structure ( like succulent plants in desert), function, or behavior.
Mechanical is not a type of adaptation as it deals with movement of objects.
The correct answer for second question is- C) Variations.
Variation among organisms in a population results from change in the genetic material or their genetic sequences. Change at the genetic level is thus reflected in the phenotypes ( like different color of feathers in birds).
Thus, difference is in the feather color reflects variations.
<span>The correct answer here is A. In a scientific experiment, the dependent variable is the variable that is being tested and then measured. The answer referenced in D, the variable that is manipulated, is referring to the independent variable.</span>
The estimated expected (mean) time for project completion is 50 weeks, time management includes all the activities necessary to achieve the target date of delivery of the project. It includes the following activities: identification of activities, logical sequencing of activities, estimation of duration of activities, and preparation of the project schedule. For the preparation of the schedule we will see various methods such as resource leveling, simulation, and the critical chain method.
