Answer:

The answer is statement 1, 2, and 3

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a starting point for further investigation, therefore a hypothesis will always be a possibility at least until it is tested.

Variable is a factor that is liable to vary or change.

A hypothesis without being tested is merely a statement or an explanation made on the basis of limited evidence. Therefore it is unsure whether the said statement is true or not.

A hypothesis can still be proven by further investigation with different variables

Answer:

The correct option is C) maternal mitochondrial mutations are inherited by all of a mother's offspring.

Explanation:

Mitochondrial inheritance is one of the ways in which a disease or a trait might be inherited from the maternal line.

Most of the DNI is located in the nucleus, but there is also DNI in mitochondria. Sperm cells hardly carry mitochondria, so mitochondrial DNI is mostly inherited from the maternal side. If there exists any mutation in this DNI, the whole progeny of the mutated woman will be affected, as they will get the mother´s mitochondria carrying the mutation. On the contrary, if there is a man affected by a disease caused by a mutation in mitochondrial DNI, non of their descendants will get the disease.

In the exposed pedigree, we can see that the mother is affected by the disease, but the couple had two daughters, and only one of them was affected, while the other one was not. This tells us that the mutation occurred on a nuclear chromosome. If the mutated allele was in mitochondria, both daughters would be affected.
