Answer:

The correct answer would be  C. With an input of energy, ADP combines with a phosphate group to become ATP.

Inorganic phosphorus and energy are added to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in order to convert it to adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

This reaction is usually catalyze by the enzyme ATP synthase. It present in inner membrane of mitochondria of the cell as well as in the thyllakoid membrane in chloroplast.

ATP synthase uses the energy provided by chemiosmosis i.e. flow of protons down the gradient across the membrane through this enzyme. Proton gradient is formed either by photosynthesis or by cellular respiration.

ADP + inorganic phosphate (Pi) + energy → ATP + H₂O

ATP is used as the energy currency of the cell which breaks down to release inorganic phosphate group and energy which is used in various metabolic processes.

Evolution creates not the best solution but the most available. Building on your answer to the previous question what does this
Greeley [361]

This statement means that evolution has happened by getting the genes of the  right trait expressed at the right time to help adaptability.

Explanation:

Evolution is a result of natural selection which emphasize on the survival of the fittest. But the occurrence of this trait has been possible with genetic variation. It means that if the genes for the particular feature is not present in the genome how would it occur and adapt to the environment. Thus, evolution promotes the most available option for the adaptation and hence for natural selection.

We can conclude that all features are not adaptable some are the results of genetic drift or mutations.

In case of cheetah,  the faster running genes would have been there they got expressed over the period of time for better adaptability.
