The DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the carrier of genetic information from all forms of living organisms. This is the main reason of the inheritance of traits, behaviors, attitude, physical appearances, and many more that helped, not just the human being, but all living organisms in the planet to adapt, adjust, evolve, and survive for generations and generations. The DNA is carried by the cells of the living organisms' body and is stored and shared eventually. Though it was discovered that the DNA is a long complicated helix that contains mostly all the information of life, this is stored in the nucleus of a cell because it is folded and condensed together with the other genetic materials.
<h2>C) option is correct </h2>
Explanation:
Natural selection as proposed by Darwin is a selection pressure which operates in a population and allow the best fitted genotype to survive in changing environmental conditions and eliminate the other genotype which are not fit
Causes of natural selection include: Genetic drift, mutation(changes allelic frequency) and sexual selection
In the given example, condition necessary for natural selection to occur on the mouse population is traits that affect the survival of the mice vary among individual mice, in this condition superior genotype will get the opportunity to reproduce and inferior genotype does not get opportunity to reproduce thus their genotype in population does not increase rapidly and hence they become eliminated leading to genetic drift
Mostly the sun. Producers use energy from sunlight to make energy combining Carbon dioxide and water to form organic matter
