Answer:
A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.
Answer:
Yes! Here is your answer!
Explanation:
The geologic time scale (GTS) is a system of chronological dating that classifies geological strata (stratigraphy) in time. It is used by geologists, palaeontologists, and other Earth scientists to describe the timing and relationships of events in geologic history.
Answer:
Figure 3
Explanation:
A mixture is a substance made up of two or more different kind of atoms arranged in such a way that they are not chemically linked or joined. This accounts for the reason a mixture can be separated easily. In the figures attached as an image in this question:
- Figure 1 represents an element because it is made up of only hydrogen atoms chemically bonded together to form a molecule.
- Figure 2 represents a compound because it contains hydrogen and carbon atoms chemically joined together.
- Figure 3 represents a MIXTURE because it contains the oxygen and carbon atoms, which are not chemically joined to one another. As seen in the image, the oxygen atoms are not joined to the carbon atoms.
- Figure 4 represents a compound because it contains oxygen and hydrogen atoms chemically bonded together.
The smallest item in the list would be organelles. Organelles are tiny structures within a cell, that help it to function. Example of organelles are-- nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane to name a few. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things, therefore, cells would have to be placed second. They are microscopic. A group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function, is known as a tissue. Therefore, tissue is next largest. Examples of tissues include, muscle tissue, epithelial tissue, adipose tissue. When different types of tissues work together to perform a function in the body, this group of tissues forms an organ. An example of an organ is the heart. Inside the heart are many types of tissue-- cardiac muscle,nerve, blood, connective, etc. The job it performs is to pump blood. When various organs work together to perform a specific function in the body, this makes up a system. An example is the circulatory system. In this system are many organs that work together. Arteries, veins, capillaries and heart are all part of the circulatory system. Its job is to circulate blood containing nutrients and oxygen to cells and to pick up cellular wastes. All the systems of the body comprise the organism. An organism is a living thing. It can be as tiny as a microbe, or a complex as a human. When referring to a multicellular organism, the correct order from smallest to largest is-- organelle, cell, tissue, organ, system, organism
