Answer:

The correct answer is: D. a piece of non-coding DNA consisting of 2–5 repeating sequences of base pairs.

Explanation:

STRs, abbreviated from Short Tandem Repeat, are microsatellites: sequences of non-coding DNA that repeat units that are 2 to 5 base pairs in length. The number of repetitions of these sequences <u>varies from people to people</u>, which gives it a significant importance in the fields of forensics, where is used to identify a person.

<u>Non-coding DNA is a sequence that will not translate into any protein.</u> Half of our DNA is made of non-coding DNA.

According to Darwin’s theory of natural selection Why do species evolve over time
Luda [366]

Answer:

According to Darwin, species evolve because those with undesirable or dangerous traits don't reproduce as much or die before they can reproduce. This causes the organisms with the most desirable traits that allow for higher reproduction or survival rates (which go hand in hand) to pass those traits on until they eventually evolve into a different species.
