Answer: Germline mutation
A germline mutation is a mutation in the fully developed germ cells (sperm and ovum). These defective mutated cells fuse to form zygote. The zygote rapidly produces all somatic and germline cells in the offsprings which are also mutated. Therefore, mutation is transmitted from parents to offsprings. Cystic fibrosis is a result of germline mutation. This disease is hereditary in nature passes from parents to the offsprings. If a child receives CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) mutated gene from both the parents than the child will be affected by the symptoms of this disease. If the child receives a single copy of CFTR gene from either of the parent than the child will be the carrier of disease.The mutated gene may be present in the germline cells of the parent or on all the body cells.
The value which is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining" and "Percentage remaining" is: D. amount of material that has not decayed.
<h3>What is a radioactive decay?</h3>
A radioactive decay can be defined as a radioactive process in which an unstable atomic nucleus undergoes a spontaneous transformation into one or more different atomic nuclei and simultaneously emits radiation, accompanied with a loss of energy.
<h3>The types of
radioactive decay.</h3>
In Science, there are three main types of radioactive decay and these include the following:
- Alpha decay
- Beta decay
- Gamma decay
Based on the information provided in the table (see attachment), we can reasonably infer and logically deduce that the value which is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining" and "Percentage remaining" is the amount of material that has not decayed.

Answer:
Conductors
Explanation: the substances which have a large number of free electrons and offer a low resistance are called conductors
The relative time of divergence from a common ancestor can be estimated by comparing the nucleotide/protein sequence.
<h3>What is sequence homo-logy?</h3>
In molecular biology, sequence homo-logy means the degree of similarity between sequences due to a common ancestor.
A sequence is a given fragment of a single DNA strand where nucleotides are arranged in a specific linear order.
Divergence or separation between lineages is directly proportional to the level of sequence homo-logy.
In conclusion, the relative time of divergence from a common ancestor can be estimated by comparing the nucleotide/protein sequence.
