Answer:
Adaptations develop from variations within a population and help organisms to survive in their given environment. Changes in populations accumulate over time; this is called evolution. The fossil record shows us that present-day life forms evolved from earlier different life forms.
Answer: The given statement is True.
Gene can be described as the segment of DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid), which codes for a particular protein. The protein thus formed, corresponds to a specific trait ( such as skin color, hair color, color of eye) of the individual organism.
They possess set of instructions for making a protein in the form of nucleotide sequences. Gene undergo transcription to form mRNA ( messenger RNA), which is then converted into particular protein through translation.
Genes are inherited from parents by their offspring and in this way specific traits are inherited by offspring from their parents.
Thus, given statement in the question is correct.
Answer:
The increase in the human population and waste it produces, deforestation , peat bog destruction and global warming are all reducing biodiversity
Explanation:
Gene therapy affects a cell by A) Cells with functioning genes are replaced with mutated genes.
Answer: Increase in species numbers and diversity
Explanation:
Upwelling is an oceanographic phenomena in which the water from the bottom layers of the ocean usually above the seafloor get displaced and reach upto the surface layers with the effect of wind currents. The water carries away along with it the nutrients and the organic matter to the surface layers which allows the efficient growth of plant and planktonic diversity which favors the growth of sea animals like fishes and others. Hence, by this way the species diversity and numbers increases by the process of upwelling.
