Answer:

C. the effects of an earthquake on blood pressure

Explanation:

Natural experiments are observational studies in which participants are randomly assigned to groups that allow the researcher to draw causal relationships between an event and a factor. These experiments are used in studies where it would be unethical and unacceptable to subject human participants to such conditions. It is most times applied in epidemiological studies.

Since the researcher cannot control an earthquake which is a natural occurrence, this can be rightly described as a natural experiment. Controls are not used in this type of experiment.

This is a DNA mutation that does not result in a change to the amino acid sequence of a protein.
ohaa [14]

Answer: silence point

A silent point mutation may be an effect of a base-pair substitution (substitution of one base pair with another in DNA). However, silent point mutations are a special case where no amino acids are affected. As a result, since the monomers of proteins are amino acids, there is no change to the sequence of a protein.

The correct answer is rapids and waterfalls.  

Rapids refers to the segments of streams with extensively vigorous currents, various obstacles, and steps in their streambeds. A waterfall refers to a vertical drop in a stream bed. Both are the locations of vigorous erosion.  

The rapids are generally produced where the resilient bedrock limits a stream to a narrow channel and forces an enhancement in the velocity of water.  

On the other hand, waterfalls are produced where the fast-flowing water negotiates a geologic contact amid the more resilient and less resistant layers of rock, or through a fault, which has analogized distinct kinds of rocks. Or it can be said that waterfalls usually produce at the end of a series of rapids.
