Answer: Node
Explanation:
Cladograms are a graphical representation of the evolutionary relationship between organisms. These are usually shown as branches from a central point, which represents a common ancestor. In rooted cladograms, the branches are shown relative to the time elapsed since evolving from a common ancestor joined at the node, or point of divergence.
Evolution typically occurs after accumulating mutation, and natural selection of beneficial traits that confer greater chances for survival.

C. It will increase in size.
Explanation:
Scientific laws or laws of science are statements, based on repeated experiments or observations, that describe or predict a range of natural phenomena. ... Scientific laws summarize the results of experiments or observations, usually within a certain range of application.
Answer:
basale - spinosum - granulosum - lucidum - corneum.
Explanation:
The order of strata in the epidermis:
- Basale: it is the deepest stratum. It has one layer of cells called keratinocytes, which are stem cells for the epidermis.
- Spinosum: The keratinocytes in this layer have spiny shapes. They synthesize cytokeratin and lipids. In this layer, we can also find macrophages.
- Granulosum: The keratinocytes of the previous layer ascend and synthesize keratohyalin, which is in granules. The keratohyalin helps to join keratin filaments. Also, the cells release the lipids synthesized in the previous layer, and they form a barrier that stops dehydration.
- Lucidum: it is only on thick skin, like the one in the sole of the feet. The keratinocytes in this layer have expelled the nucleus and now are dead cells. The keratinocytes have a flat shape and form a thin layer.
- Corneum: it is the most superficial layer. It is made of dead keratinocytes filled with keratin in their cytoplasm. It is a thick layer that suffers desquamation when new dead cells filled with keratin ascend from the previous layer.
