Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.

For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.

Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.

mixas84 [53]

The right option is; it interprets signals from the external environment  

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is made up of all parts of the nervous system, except the brain and spinal cord (parts of the central nervous system). The peripheral nervous system functions as a channel through which neural signals are transferred from and to the central nervous system. Two types of neurons (sensory and motor neurons) functions in the PNS. The motor neurons transfer neural signals from the central nervous system directly to various muscles, glands, and organs (effectors) throughout the body.

Answer: sunlight.

The independent variable is referred to as the variable which causes a change in the value of the other variable (dependent variable). It is also known as the explanatory or predictor variable as it lead to changes in the dependent or predicted variable.
