Answer:
Your answer is B) Mutations lead to genetic variation.
Think of it like this, when rays were first starting to develop, they probably started with only one kind, stingless. Somewhere down the line, the genes of the rays started to mutate and eventually, there were stingrays and stingless rays. Now at this point there are predators that frequently feast upon the rays, so which of the two rays are more likely to defend themselves, and get away to live long enough to reproduce and pass on their genes? The stingrays! The mutation that may have occurred millions of years ago, has determined which organisms were more fit for a changing environment.
Answer:
Cold blooded organisms are mostly reptiles, like lizards, for instance. Cold-blooded animals are able to survive when it is cold, and they behave as they normally would. Some animals, such as alligators, will lie in the sun at an attempt to warm themselves. They behave like this because just like us, they are just organisms trying to live their lives.
