Answer:

Principles of Geology

Explanation:

J. Henslow gifted Darwin the first volume of Principles of Geology, written by Charles Lyell. The book explains about the old age of the earth. Accordingly, the slow rate of several geological processes suggests that the earth is very old.

Darwin read the book as the ship was crossing the Atlantic and learned about geological processes occurring over the millions of years. For example, he learned that the earth's surface was not formed by some catastrophic event.

In his book, Lyell explained the slow and gradual geological processes like erosion gave rise to the vast landscapes present on the earth's surface.

Darwin compared the time taken by geological processes to form the earth's surface and reasoned if these millions of years were enough to support the evolution of species.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Deletion in a nearby gene, chromosome breakage, and translocation of the gene to a heterochromatic location.

Explanation:

Transposable components (TEs), also known as "jumping genes," are DNA sequences that moves starting with one area on the genome then onto the next, in some cases making or reversing mutation and changing the cell's hereditary character and genome size.  

At the point when the transposon is extracted from the original site, it may remove a portion of the gene sections alongside it. This prompts the presence of a serious phenotype. Transposable components can likewise cause chromosome breakage. On the off chance that the whole gene is moved alongside the transposon to a heterochromatic location, the gene gets silenced
