Explanation:

Surprisingly, until recently, not much was known about the genes that control melanin production. 6 were known (MC1R, TYR, OCA2, SLC24A5, MATP and ASIP) and 17 more have been recently identified (DTNBP1, GPR143, HPS3, KITGL, MLPH, MYO5A, MYO7A, SLC45A2, TYRP1, ERCC6, GNAS, HERC2, IRF4, OBSCN, SKC24A5, TPNC2 and MITF), all of them directly or indirectly related to the process of melanin formation and distribution. Since there are so many different genes, if we count all the possible alterations, many different color variants can be produced.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Cerebrospinal fluids  is a  colorless fluid  that is secreted in the choroid plexus,and  circulates in the ventricles system  and sub -aranchinoid space  of the brain and spinal cord. its provides nutrients  to the surrounding  neurons, cushions the effects of trauma, pressure, acts as buffer and provides protection through immune  system .

it plays a vital role in regulating  blood flow, through a process called cerebral auto regulation,This is needed to maintain efficient cerebral blood flow of oxygen and other metabolites, and withdraw of metabolic wastes from the brain.

in order to analyze it to diagnose some neurological diseases  its sample is usually taken out in a process called lumbar  puncture.

Traits that enable an organism to reproduce, without necessarily helping them to survive, are often selected for. Darwin called

The example that does not exhibit sexual selection is:
D. male elephant seals fighting over territory and potential female mates
The competition for territory is also one that helps the elephant seals survive. This is because a seal with a larger territory is likely to have access to a greater amount of resources, ensuring its survival.

When you hear the term mutation, you usually think of change. But how do mutations influence traits that may be inherited?
lana [24]

Hereditary mutation - may be passed to another generation, occurs in gametes, variation that may enhance survival.

Somatic mutation - not passed from generation to generations, occurs in body cells.

Both- changes in DNA.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Mutations are defined as sudden changes in DNA that takes place by changing a particular nucleotide or a portion of DNA, or even a whole chromosome which has potential to change characters of an organism. Mutation was first proposed by Hugo de Vries who is also known as the Father of Mutation Theory.

Mutations can occur in any cell of body. It may occur in somatic cells, or in germ mother cells. But the mutations that occur in germ mother cells are actually the mutations that are carried forward by the gametes into next generations. Mutation in somatic cells get obliterated as the organism dies. And the Mutation in gamete cells are those mutations which are capable to cause variations in progenies which can led to better survival of the progenies.
