Answer:

a. ATP

Explanation:

It is ATP which is used for energy in body. An ATP molecule has three components a sugar to which a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group is attached. There are three inorganic phosphorus atoms in the phosphate group and it is in the bonds of these inorganic phosphates high energy is stored. When these bonds break, energy is liberated which we use in our day to day activities.

As such NADH and NADPH molecules are also high energy molecules but we cannot use their energy directly. They have to be first converted into ATP and only then we can use their energy. Glucose is a sugar which has chemical energy stored in it but we cannot directly use the energy of glucose either. It is only when glucose is broken down through cellular respiration we obtain these high energy molecules NADH, NADPH and ATP. In short, glucose is the source of these molecules.

Mistakes can happen during DNA replication, and if they are not repaired it can result in a mutation. Certain mutations can lead
polet [3.4K]
Mutations result either from errors in DNA replication or from the damaging effects of mutagens, such as chemicals and radiation, which react with DNA and change the structures of individual nucleotides. All cells possess DNA-repair enzymes that attempt to minimize the number of mutations that occur

Because of genetic variation, a species of beetle has two different body colors, red and green. This species exists in a grassy
pshichka [43]

Answer:

1. Green beetles and red beetles exist in the environment.

2. Birds that eat the beetles move into the environment.

3. Red beetles are eaten by birds, but green beetles aren’t eaten.

4. Green beetles pass on their color trait to future offspring.

5. The entire population of beetles eventually becomes green in color.

Explanation:

According to the theory of natural selection, only those species survives which fits closely with their environment. According to the conditions given, there are two genetic variations of the same species based on the color, i.e. green and red. Initially, both red and green are living together in a grassland (green in color). Then, birds enter the same environment because they have food there (beetles). Now, green beetles will take a competitive advantage because of the color and avoid getting eaten by the birds. However, red beetles would be prominent and eaten fast. The green beetles will pass on their genetic variation causing the color to be green in their future offspring and a time will come when there will be on green beetles in the area.
