Answer:The ultimate source of all genetic variation is mutation. Mutation is important as the first step of evolution because it creates a new DNA sequence for a particular gene, creating a new allele. Recombination also can create a new DNA sequence (a new allele) for a specific gene through intragenic recombination.
Explanation:
I think option a is the correct answer
The main culprits in their demise are invasive, disease-carrying mosquitos introduced to Hawaii. Avian malaria and other diseases have decimated the birds’ populations.
The ‘i‘iwi and similar species have gradually sought refuge at higher, cooler elevations where the mosquitos can’t reach them. But researchers say that climate change is warming those habitats and allowing the mosquitos to reach the birds.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
As temperature increases the rate of enzyme activity increases until it reaches approximately 37 degrees Celsius. As temperature increases beyond 37 degrees Celsius, the enzyme activity decreases. The activity decreases because the enzyme denatures.
Any enzyme has certain temperature, pH and pressure to maintain its activity. Only at the ideal or ambient parameters the enzyme works. Most of the enzymes that are present in the human body gets activated by 37 degrees and gets denatured beyond that temperature.
The correct answer to your question is D. covalent.
