Answer:
Mutations are important to the evolution of a species because is creates new DNA for a certain gene, creating a new allele.

Answer:
homozygous
Explanation:
when an individual both copies of a given gene have the same allele
A-plant Vacuoles are the largest in plant cells.
Answer:
Any sort of prexisting rock whether sedimentary, igneous, or even metamorphic rock must change under extreme conditions like extreme heat or pressure.
Explanation:
An igneous rock is a rock that has been created via cooling of magma.
A sedimentary rock is formed from sediments, whether they be natural like seashells, or other pieces of older rocks that have worn away. usually formed under pressure.
A metamorphic rock is a rock that's changed, because it was put under extreme pressure or exposed to extreme heat.
Think of the part morphic in the word metamorphic-it literally means that it morphed or that it changed dramatically.
There are two ways for a rock to become metamorphic under <u>extreme pressure</u> or <u>extreme heat</u><u>.</u> and there are two types of metamorphic rocks, <u>contact</u> <u>metamorphism</u> and <u>regional metamorphism</u><u>.</u>
Those mean pretty much exactly what they say.
If you have any more questions, ask, but i think I covered the most important parts of the answer.
best of luck
Answer:
Gene pairs segregate randomly and independently of each other.
Explanation:
Genes are the basic units of hereditary and are located on chromosomes. According to Gregor Mendel's law of independent assortment which states that the alleles of two (or more) different genes are sorted into gametes independently of one another. This means that the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele the same gamete receives for another gene.
For example, in a the pea plants used by Mendel in his studies, the genes for seed shape and flower color were inherited independent of each other by the offspring of the parent pea plants. Therefore, Mendel concluded that the inheritance of each trait was independent of the other.
