Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Genome is not a steady entity, it is exposed to various kinds of heritable modifications, a sudden and heritable modification in the arrangement of the genome in an organism, which produces different forms of any gene is called mutation.  

The mutations provide the raw material for genetic evolution, mutation leads to the generation of alleles, in the absence of mutation all the genes would prevail only in one form, and the organism would lose to the tendency to evolve and amend with the changing environments.

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

If the calcium levels in blood increases, then there is increase in blood glucose level.

Explanation:

Calcium in blood plays a vital role of homeostasis in regards to level of secretion of insulin. If the calcium level is altered, the homeostasis mechanism is hampered. Several  researches have shown that alteration of serum calcium level affects the metabolism process of carbohydrate and makes the person vulnerable to risks of diabetes mellitus and associated complications. Hence during calcium supplementation, the person's blood glucose level must be considered.

what does the global conveyor belt reveal about the connectivity of water in the oceans? how could a change in the path of the g
skad [1K]
General paradigms of species extinction risk are urgently needed as global habitat loss and rapid climate change threaten Earth with what could be its sixth mass extinction. Using the stony coral Lophelia pertusa as a model organism with the potential for wide larval dispersal, we investigated how the global ocean conveyor drove an unprecedented post-glacial range expansion in Earth׳s largest biome, the deep sea. We compiled a unique ocean-scale dataset of published radiocarbon and uranium-series dates of fossil corals, the sedimentary protactinium–thorium record of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) strength, authigenic neodymium and lead isotopic ratios of circulation pathways, and coral biogeography, and integrated new Bayesian estimates of historic gene flow. Our compilation shows how the export of Southern Ocean and Mediterranean waters after the Younger Dryas 11.6 kyr ago simultaneously triggered two dispersal events in the western and eastern Atlantic respectively. Each pathway injected larvae from refugia into ocean currents powered by a re-invigorated AMOC that led to the fastest postglacial range expansion ever recorded, covering 7500 <span>km in under 400 years. In addition to its role in modulating global climate, our study illuminates how the ocean conveyor creates broad geographic ranges that lower extinction risk in the deep sea.</span>
