Answer:
Mutation is important as the first step of evolution because it creates a new DNA sequence for a particular gene, creating a new allele.
Explanation:
The building blocks are amino acids
The cell in the middle differs from its surrounding cells by having a double cell membrane hence the cells do not have the exact same structure and most likely do not come from the same cell. For cells to produce food molecules, I am not too sure but I feel that the question is referring to plant cells that are able to photosynthesize. Plant cells have a cell wall and a cell membrane hence is unlikely to be represented by most of the cells in this diagram. Thus by elimination, the answer could be having the same function
C.) depend on the same resources
