I think it is...A or C Sorry if I am wrong. :(
Answer:
A.producing changes in the genetic code
Explanation:
Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).
Answer:
produces tremendous amounts of energy
Explanation:
Nuclear fission involves the split of the nucleus of high energy radioactive elements to produce a smaller nuclei with a high amount of energy which is often used to generate electricity.
It is also a very clean source of energy due to its inability to produce carbon compounds which are mostly associated with air pollution. It also doesn’t involve a large amount of matter.
The bacterial species,<u> Listeria monocytogenes</u>, accounts for 12%-15% of infant meningitis cases.
Explanation:
Listeria monocytogenes is a group B strep gram-negative bacteria, one of the main causes of meningitis.
This species is psychrotrophic in nature which means that it can grow at low temperatures like refrigerator temperature and mostly found in areas with a temperature around 15-20 degrees Celsius.
These organisms also become psychrotolerant or psychrophiles and can grow at places where the temperature fluctuates.
This is the main reason for the spoilage of food stored in a refrigerator. So leftover baby foods, bottles stored in a refrigerator can be contaminated with these species.
When the infants ingest the contaminated food or use the bottle, they also get infected. Listeria monocytogenes cause meningitis in infants especially who are immunocompromised infants.
