Answer:
b- a genetic mutation must have occurred
Explanation:
In the 1980s, archaeologists from the Florida Museum of Natural History opened a formal excavation in one particular sink. Below a layer of undisturbed sediment they found nine stone flakes that a person must have chipped from a larger stone, most likely to make tools and projectile points. They also found a mastodon tusk, scarred by circular cut marks from a knife. The tusk was 14,500 years old.
The age was surprising, even shocking, for it suddenly made the Aucilla sinkhole one of the earliest places in the Americas to betray the presence of human beings. Curiously, though, scholars largely ignored the discoveries of the Aucilla River Prehistory Project, instead clinging to the conviction that America’s earliest settlers arrived more recently, some 13,500 years ago. But now the sinkhole is getting a fresh look, along with several other provocative archaeological sites that show evidence of an earlier human presence in the Americas. Around 135,000 years ago, sea levels were lower and what is now Siberia and Alaska were connected by a land bridge. That offered an easy route for bison and perhaps wooly mammoths to migrate from Asia to North America. Early humans easily could have followed, whether those “humans” were Homo sapiens, Homo erectus, Neanderthals, or little-understood Denisovans. But even if they were a different species, they were likely similar to modern humans, capable of verbal communication and with the knowledge of various survival skills. Does this solve your question?
Answer:
A) Surface-active agents, or surfactants, decrease surface tension among molecules of a liquid.
B) Phenolics exert antimicrobial activity by injuring lipid-containing plasma membranes, which causes the cellular components to leak out of the cell.
C) Alcohols exert their action by denaturing proteins and dissolving lipids.
Explanation:
<h2>Answer:</h2>
The population of the guppies will decreases.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- In the stream the fine and specific spots of guppies make them visible to their mates.
- This is their survival and reproductive benefit.
- But the predator which prey the guppies by sight will easily catch them and the population of the guppies in stream will decrease.
- There will be another way in which guppies changes their spots for survival, in this case, their mates will not recognize them and the reproduction will decreases.
- Hence the consequence will be decease in population.
