ATP is the main energy-providing molecule in living organisms.
Answer:
The correct answer is "option a. it is likely it will pass to the offspring; option b. it is not very likely that it will pass to the offspring".
Explanation:
In order that a mutation could be passed to the offspring it is necessary that the affected DNA can be transmitted to the following generation. A single bacteria that contains a positive mutation in its DNA is likely to pass its mutation to the offspring since it multiples by binary fission. On the other hand, a skin cell most likely will not pass its mutation to the offspring since a skin cell is not involved in the organism reproduction, such as a sexual cell.
Answer:
Option (A)
Explanation:
The Precambrian represents the time period, right from the beginning of the earth to about 540 million years back. It is divided into 3 parts, namely the Hadean, the Archean and the Proterozoic. Throughout this geological time, vast changes have taken place on earth. The first life forms of about 3.8 billion years old, that existed on earth were the simple unicellular organisms, whose traces were only found at some particular places. These organisms were very small and are comprised of soft bodies, so they were affected by the earth's dynamic processes. The organisms in order to get fossilized must contain hard parts. Due to the presence of soft bodies, the organisms were not fossilized and so it took a long time to demarcate that the late Precambrian organisms were animal-like life.
hence, the correct answer is option (A).
