Mutations and natural selection cause adaptations. Mutations can cause instant adaptations, while natural selection is the process by which adaptations occurs over a series of generations.
Adaptations are changes or processes of changes by which an organism or species becomes better suited for its environment.
A mutation is an alteration of the DNA sequence. Sometimes such alterations code for the same amino acid sequence as the unaltered DNA strand during protein synthesis. In such a circumstance, the mutation is not detectable. However, other mutations alter the genetic code in such a way that a noticeable change in the trait that is associated with that gene is visible. Sometimes such mutations are advantageous and improve the organism's ability to survive in its environment.
Natural selection is the process by which organisms with more advantageous traits (being camouflaged, being covered with the correct outer covering for the temperatures of that environment, stronger/ larger/ or faster to fight off or run from predators, etc.) are more likely to survive in a particular environment. Likewise, organisms less advantageous traits are more likely to die due to the pressures exerted by the environment (such as temperature, predators, illness, etc.). Therefore, the organisms with the advantageous traits that survive are more likely to survive to find a mate and reproduce. Thus, the advantageous traits are passed down to future generations.

The answer is C, DNA sequences of populations that are closely realted
Answer:
i. Maize seed is a monocot seed whereas bean seeds are dicot seed.
(ii) Maize seed only have a single leaf inside, most of the space inside the seed is reserved for endosperm but bean seed have two leaves, both of which store and provide food to the seedling in absence of endosperm.
(iii) Corn seeds (maize) germinates in three days but bean seed takes seven days to germinate.
Explanation:
Die is two, mono is one
Answer:
The correct answer is-
Hypothesis: Antibiotics cause weight gain in cows.
Independent Variable: Antibiotic pill
Dependent Variable: Weight of cow
Control Group: a group of cows gets a placebo pill
Experimental Group: a group of cows gets an antibiotic pill
Explanation:
The Independent variable is the variable that causes the response from the dependent variable or affects the dependent variable in this study the antibiotic pill affects the weight of cows so The independent variable is an antibiotic pill and the dependent variable is the weight of cows.
The control group is the group of subjects that did not get the treatment in a scientific study in the case of this study group of cows that receives the placebo pill is the control group and the experiment group is subjects that receive the treatment which is a group with the antibiotic pill.
