Answer:
If you measure by edge of the Sun's magnetic fields, the end is the heliosphere. If you judge by the stopping point of Sun's gravitational influence, the solar system would end at the Oort Cloud.
Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.
- In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).
- Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.
- After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.
- Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.

<span>Characteristics that mentioned biomes have in common are:
- They are all forests, dominated by trees and other woody vegetation.
- They inhabit animal life with great microbial diversity.
- They all have big carbon sinks.
Still, trees different in a number of ways in these three biomes:
- </span><span>Tropical rainforest: Trees are evergreen and have large green leaves. Canopy is multilayered and dense, so there is a little light in the forests.
- </span><span>Temperate deciduous forest: Trees are deciduous, leaves are lost annually. Canopy is moderately dense, so there is more light than in tropical rainforests.
- </span><span>Boreal forest: Trees are evergreen conifers with needle-like leaves. Canopy is thick and permits low light penetration.</span>
