Answer:
D. The offspring of multi-cellular organisms tend to be identical to the parent.
Explanation:
The offspring of multi-cellular organisms which reproduce through sexual mode can never be identical to the parents because of <u>crossing over</u> which is a phenomenon which occurs during <u>meiosis</u>. All the individuals which have sexual dimorphism and reproduce sexually have germ cells in their gonads. Meiosis is a type of cell division which occurs only in germ cells not in somatic cells. <u>During meiosis the genetic material from both the parents is exchanged leading to new combinations of genes</u> as a result of which offspring is neither 100% identical to father nor to the mother. Offspring displays traits which are a combination of both the parents thereby showing variability.
Decomposers are like the housekeepers of an ecosystem. Without them, dead plants and animals would keep piling up with the nutrients the soil needs trapped inside. Decomposers clean up the dead material by processing it and returning the nutrients to the soil for producers.
A.) Convention currents in Earth's mantle

Easter Island is a small 63-square-mile patch of land — more than a thousand miles from the next inhabited spot in the Pacific Ocean. In A.D. 1200 (or thereabouts), a small group of Polynesians — it might have been a single family — made their way there, settled in and began to farm. When they arrived, the place was covered with trees — as many as 16 million of them, some towering 100 feet high.
These settlers were farmers, practicing slash-and-burn agriculture, so they burned down woods, opened spaces, and began to multiply. Pretty soon the island had too many people, too few trees, and then, in only a few generations, no trees at all.
