This argument would not be valid because it fails to take into account the <u>mechanisms </u><u>through which </u><u>evolution </u><u>occurs</u> and misunderstands the <u>second law </u><u>of </u><u>thermodynamics</u><u>.</u>
The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system must always increase. The argument stating that this law disproves evolution given that evolution can be considered as a <u>decrease in entropy</u>, fails to realize that the <em><u>second law</u></em> states that the <u>total entropy </u>must increase, this does not mean that entropy cannot decrease at one point, to then increase more so at another.
The other aspect of evolution that this argument fails to account for is that evolution is a chaotic process. Evolution, though having a final product that may be considered as increasing in organization, is at heart <u>a </u><u>chaotic process </u><u>caused by</u><u> random mutations</u><u> and the fragile process of </u><u>natural selection</u><u>.</u> Therefore, rather than disprove it, the<em><u> second law of thermodynamics</u></em> is actually the driving force behind continued evolution.

The answer to your question is A or true.
I think you should put a check mark by 2, 3,
5, and maybe 6.
Hope this helps.
I would guess that the answer would be :'<span>These organisms dig more shallow burrows than they used to.</span>' If the crabs actively dig burrows, as many crab species do, and a layer of oil has persisted in the lower soil strata, it makes sense that the crabs would be reducing the depths of their burrows to avoid contact with the oil. The other possibility is that the crabs might might migrate to deeper waters, but this is less likely because the crabs would be evolved to utilise the intertidal zone.
Answer: Option E
Maintaining very long telomeres promotes cancer cell formation.
Explanation:
Telomere refers to either of the sequences of DNA at each end of a eukaryotic chromosome.
Usually, in eukaryote chromosome replication, telomeres are not replicated.
Hence, they are usually lost resulting in the shortening of the telomere ends after repeated cycle of cell division. This also leads to cell aging and stoppage of cell division.
The shortening of telomere combined with stoppage of cell division, and cell aging initiation prevent CANCER, which thrives on lengthy telomeres
