Answer:

mutation in DNA

Explanation:

Mutations are changes in the genetic code that can occur in many ways. Each time a cell divides, say, DNA must be copied into two copies, one copy for each new cell. Although this copying is very precise, it is still not perfect - for about every billion accurately copied databases, one is mistranslated.

Another source is DNA damage, which can occur spontaneously through the normal life of the cell, or through external toxins or negative influences (ultraviolet radiation, for example). Through evolution, cells have developed a very complex system for repairing changes in DNA, but these systems not only have limitations but can sometimes cause additional errors themselves.

Answer:

C. requires the restoration of ecosystems better designed to serve the needs of humans

Explanation:

For a very long time, the survival of plants and animals has been dependent on each other. The plant depended on animals for oxygen and the animals depended on plants for carbon dị oxide.

In recent times, this balance has been altered as humans (higher animals) have started engaging in activities that hurt the ecosystem such as Bush burning, deforestation and other agricultural practices.

In view of this, there is an urgent need for the restoration of ecosystems that suit human needs. This can be done by planting of more trees, reduction in industrial activities that involves emission of harmful gases and wastes into the air, land and water.

What microscope magnifies up to 100,000x
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

electron microscope

Explanation:

An electron microscope is a microscope that uses a beam of accelerated electrons as a source of illumination. As the wavelength of an electron can be up to 100,000 times shorter than that of visible light photons, electron microscopes have a higher resolving power than light microscopes and can reveal the structure of smaller objects.
