Answer:

The correct answer is - A. Producing offspring that are genetically identical to the parents

Explanation:

Genetic variation is the difference between the population or individual on a genetic level. If there is a change in the DNA of individuals or among the population, it is genetic variation in these organisms.

There are several factors that result in genetic variation such as random mating, random fertilization, mutation, crossing over during meiosis, and many more. Producing genetically identical offspring to the parents is not a factor as there is no variation is taken place on the genetic level.

A researcher claims that a newly discovered microorganism is an autotroph. Which observation would support his claim?
Maslowich

Answer:

The microorganism creates its own energy.

Explanation:

Based on the pattern of nutrition, a living organism can either be autotrophic or heterotrophic. Autotrophic organisms are those organisms capable of synthesizing its own food or energy source using light (photosynthesis) or chemicals (chemosynthesis). Heterotrophs, on the other hand, cannot synthesize their own food, hence, they depend on other organisms for energy.

According to this question, a researcher claims that a newly discovered microorganism is an autotroph. For this claim to be true, this means that the microorganism must be capable of CREATING ITS OWN FOOD/ENERGY either by photosynthesis (light) or chemosynthesis (inorganic chemicals).
