Answer:

homeostasis

Explanation:

Living beings maintain the constant environment of the body. It is called homeostasis. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment of the body. It is the result of all of the body’s regulatory processes.

For example, the blood glucose level is normally maintained between 70 and 110 milligrams of glucose per 100 ml of the blood. A rise of blood glucose level is counteracted by increased secretion of the hormone insulin from the pancreatic cells. Therefore, cells and higher levels such as organs and organ systems, contribute to maintaining homeostasis.

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The answer is E.

Explanation:

In vivo or in vitro evolution (Directed Evolution) is a technique used by genetic scientists to push the change in nucleic acids or proteins in a specific direction to get the end results that they want.

And high-fidelity polymerase is used to get a replica of the target DNA that has less errors.

So the situation given in the question where researchers use a higher-fidelity DNA polymerase in vitro evolution, the mutation rate would most likely be lower because of the high-fidelity DNA polymerase.

I hope this answer helps.
