Answer:
d. Two of the above explanations are correct.
Explanation:
A frameshift mutation is commonly known as a genetic mutation that occurs as a result of the indels such as the addition or removal of certain nucleotides in the sequence of a DNA that is indivisible by three. In the presence of addition or removal, the reading frame from the initial translation to a different one. Thus, the correct option is option d.
True there are temperate rainforests in Oregon, and other places
It is true that it is possible for a population to not evolve for a while.
There is something called the Hardy-Weinberg theorem, which characterizes the distributions of genotype frequencies in populations that are not evolving.
There are 5 Hardy-Weinberg assumptions:
- no mutation
- random mating
- no gene flow
- infinite population size
- and no selection (natural nor forced).
You can see that some of these are kinda extreme and really hard to get, but with approximations, we can work.
For example, instead of an "infinite population size" we have enough with a really large population, such that genetic drift is negligible.
Concluding, yes, it is possible (but really difficult) for a population to not evolve for a while (at least, in nature), as long as the 5 assumptions above are met.

The statement “Feeding scrub-jays can lead to starvation of fledgling scrub-jays” is true because if humans feed the birds, they may become reliant on humans and be unable to get their own food, which can lead to starvation and malnutrition
Answer: The downstream components will be altered and ultimately affect production of glucose.
Explanation: Epinephrine is a hormone that belongs to a class of biomolecules called catecholamines. When it reaches the target cell it binds to a receptor that is connected to an enzyme called adenylate cyclase that converts ATP into cAMP(cyclic adenosine monophosphate). cAMP plays an important role in the phosphorylation of proteins which alters their activity. In this case the activity of the enzyme that hydrolyses glycogen to glucose. When caffeine blocks the activity of cAMP it ultimately inhibits the action of the downstream components.
