Answer: The correct option is B (self-replicating molecules, such as RNA and DNA)

Explanation:

The current theory of the process of evolution makes use of present day knowledge of genes and chromosomes to explain the source of genetic variation upon which natural selection works. These genes are discrete units of inheritance which determine hereditary characteristics. All the information for the inheritable characteristics of an individual are contained in these genes.

When a cell divides, the genes duplicate themselves so that each daughter cell has an identical set of genes as the original parent cell. These genes are passed from parents to offspring in the gametes of the parents.

Gene are found in the DNA( Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules or RNA (Ribonucleic acid) molecules. These molecules are capable of self replication due to a process called mutation. Mutations are random changes in DNA that alter genetic information and sin introduce new characteristics. They may occur

--> in body cells or

--> during gamete formation.

Thus, evolution from vesicles to true cells is through self replicating molecules through the process of mutation which is the raw material for evolution

Answer:

C. Sprout every year, year after year

Explanation:

The perennial plants are the plants that live for more then two years, thous some may argue that they are plants that live more then three years. Whichever the case, they are not short-lived plants, but are capable of surviving for numerous years, unlike the annuals and biennials. Theoretically, the shrubs and trees would fall into this category, but they are classified separately, and this term is not used for them, but for smaller plants that do not have or have very little woody parts. These plants tend to sprout every year, and even though they seemingly die in the autumn, their roots are alive, and they emerge and grow again in the spring, sprouting again. That process repeats itself for numerous years.

hichkok12 [17]

In order to survive the winter, monarch butterflies "migrate to warmer areas".

Option: B

Explanation:

The survival for Monarch butterflies is not possible in any of the United States 'cold winters, therefore they are needed to migrate south and west every autumn to avoid the cold temperatures.
This species migration usually begins around every year in October, but may begin quicker if the weather turns cold earlier than that.
Thus they spend their winter hibernation all year round in Mexico and some areas of Southern California where the temperature is warmer.
If the monarch stays in the Eastern states, typically east of the Rocky Mountains, then they will migrate to Mexico and hibernate in oyamel fir trees.

Which statement accurately describes an aspect of human reproduction

Nitella [24]

Ans.

Human reproduction involves release of sperm (male gamete) and egg (female gamete) and their fusion to form zygote that develops into embryo. In females, an egg is released each month as a part of a monthly cylce, called menstrual cycle. The release of egg is termed as ovulation, in which tiny eggs are send into the fallopian tubes for fertilization.

Hence, the correct answer is 'a). an adult female usually releases an egg from an ovary each month.'
