The production of numerous small offspring followed by exponential population growth is the defining characteristic of r-selected<span> species. They require short gestation periods, mature quickly (and thus require little or no parental care), and possess short life span</span>
Answer:
The rate of energy coming from the Sun changes slightly day to day. It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate both directly, by changing the rate of solar heating of the Earth and atmosphere, and indirectly, by changing cloud forming processes
The Sun warms our planet, heating the surface, the oceans and the atmosphere. This energy to the atmosphere is one of the primary drivers our weather. Our climate is also strongly affected by the amount of solar radiation received at Earth.
The mutation in the somatic cells is known as somatic mutations. As they do not take place in the cells, which give rise to gametes, thus, the mutation is not inherited to the next generation by the sexual means.
On the other hand, the genetic mutations take place in the germline cells, that is, egg and sperm, because of this the mutations possesses the tendency to get passed on from one generation to another.
Thus, mutations are only passed on to offspring when they take place in germ cell DNA. The other kind of cells, the somatic cells refers to the rest of the cells in the body and mutations, which takes place in these cells do not get inherited further to the offspring.
Hence, the correct statements are mutations to gametes can be passed on to an organism's offspring and mutations to somatic cells are only present in the type of cell in which the mutation occurred.
Answer: a. adipose connective tissue
Subcutaneous tissue also referred to as the hypodermis, is the innermost layer of skin which is made up of lobules of fat and connective tissues. In the deepest level of the subcutaneous layer, adipose tissues are located, providing insulation from heat and cold.
