Answer:
Gene expression is a strictly controlled process that allows a cell to respond to changes in its surroundings. It serves as an on/off switch for controlling when proteins are created as well as a volume control for increasing or decreasing the amount of proteins produced.
I believe carbon dating does work to determine the age of the earth but, the answer might be <u>D</u>. Let me know if it was right.
Answer:
First, it's important to get clear on the meaning of Homeostasis.
In simple terms, it refers to the capacity of a living thing (plant or animal) to react or behave in such a way that enables it to continue to survive irrespective of changes in its immediate environment.
Explanation:
In humans, the body has a system which reacts to the external stimuli of temprature. When the weather is hot, the brain through a sequence of electrical and chemical signals tells the skin to open up the pore, then we experience venting of sweating which cools the body and regulates internal heat. This is an instance of homeostasis.
This does not mean that the plant or animal is completely immune to such external changes.
In the case of the tomato plant, the hair on the leaves and stem of the plant is an example of Homeostatic responses which have evolved over the years to discourage predators such as the hornworm caterpillar from defoliating the plant.
Cheers!
Cell theory is the historic scientific theory, now universally accepted, that living organisms are made up of cells, that they are the basic structural/organizational unit of all organisms, and that all cells come from pre-existing cells.

The answer would be D, evolved from a common ancestor
