Variations can be genetic or environmental, the traits are passed from one generation to other generation of snail is from from both parents to offspring and through the environment.

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Genetic variation in an organism is passed to the offspring by its parents.

environmental variation is the the result of different environment with which individual adapt.

Natural selection is a process in which a suitable trait which is well adapted to the environment is passed on tho future generations.

Genetic variation is the change in DNA or gene of the individual trait. The tree snails having different pattern in their shells is due to the habitat they are living in.

The snails which have well adapted to the environment are able to reproduce and pass on the traits to their progeny. The variation is due to the traits passed from parents through the environment also.

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The Pepsi he drinks at 10 pm

Explanation:

Pepsi is a caffeinated drink that has caffeine in it. Caffeine is a stimulant which means it keeps the body awake and alert. Caffeine works by mimicking adenosine. Adenosine is produced by neuron cells and when it binds to its own receptors (autocrine signaling) it triggers the neurons cells to continue firing. As the adenosine levels fall as the day progresses, the brain is signaled that it is time rest. Adenosine levels are at the lowest when its almost bedtime. However, when Jon takes Pepsi, the caffeine in it bind to the adenosine receptors and make the brain neurons to keep ‘firing’.

A hypothetical three-step metabolic pathway consists of the intermediates W, X, Y, and Z, and the enzymes that catalyze the reac
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

ZBWCYAX

Explanation:

Equation for the intermediates: Z↔W↔Y↔X

1) B catalyzes the breakdown of Z, therefore inhibiting B leads to the build up of Z.

2) If enzyme C is inactive then the organism will not  receive Y to grow, thus Y is a by-product of C.

3) If A is inhibited then W, Y and Z build except for X, thus it make sense that A catalyzes a reaction that leads to X as a by-product.

4) Inhibiting C leads to the reaction toward making Z and W, thus it catalyzes the breakdown of C directly and Z indirectly.
