Answer:

Nicolaus Copernicus

Explanation:

Nicolaus Copernicus challenged the notion proposed by Aristotle, which stated that there were four physical elements: water, fire, earth and air. It also stated that Earth was the centre of the universe, and that the four elements were below the moon and other planets, all moving around the Earth.

Copernicus challenged this with the heliocentric theory, which included assumptions that the Earth was the centre of gravity and its orbiting moon, that the sun is close to the centre of the universe with the planets orbiting it, and that the universe is much larger than the scale that Aristotle suggested.

In 2006, scientists found a fossil that seemed to have fish-like scales and four legs. It also had a bone structure in its neck
lianna [129]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Scientists found a fossil of a fish with four limbs or legs. The fossil was estimated to be around 375 million years old.  

The fossil showed the fins and scales of a fish but they also possess the bones of proto-wrist, shoulders and the elbow.

The presence of these bones can be a clue that the fish evolved the limbs to walk on the land and will later evolve into animals belonging to amphibians, reptiles and mammals. Therefore, the Tiktaalik is considered the missing link of how life evolved from water to land.

Thus, Option-C is correct.

Blood samples were collected from 19,000 children of people who were within 2000 meters of the atomic blast in Nagasaki, Japan.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The mutations that were found in the parents were mostly somatic mutations

Explanation:

It has been mentioned in the question that leukemia was mainly found in the persons who were directly exposed to the radiation and it was absent in their children so this fact suggests that the mutations that were found in the parents were mostly somatic mutations and thus they are not transferred to the children from their parents. As these mutations were induced due to exposure of radiation so it was induced mutation. And such induced mutations do not get inherited to the offspring.
