<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
D) Mutations lead to new genes, which may have an advantage over the old forms, causing the species to evolve.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Mutations are sudden, random changes that occur spontaneously in the genetic make up of an organism.</u></em> Mutation are caused by various factors which includes errors in meiosis, and other factors such as chemical mutagens.
- <em><u>Mutations may be beneficial and may play an important role in evolution as they are raw material of genetic variation</u></em>. <em><u>Mutations may lead to genetic variations in the genetic make up of an organism . Therefore mutations are important to mutation since they create new DNA sequences for a given gene and thus resulting to new alleles.</u></em>
Answer: Earth's shadow extends about 870,000 miles (1.4 million km) into space
Explanation:Like all shadows, the shadow of Earth is always opposite the sun. So you'll want to look eastward after sunset for the shadow (or westward before sunrise). Earth's shadow is the dark blue line above the horizon in this photo by Jörgen Andersson in Sweden. View larger.
Answer:
They deliver pollen from the stamens of plants to the ovaries of other plants.
Explanation:
Volcanoes form at different plate boundaries because of the plates divergent and convergent nature. the plates are always in motion, however minimal they may be. When the plates move apart from each other, the magma from below comes up to fill in the vacant space and thus a volcano is formed. It may be the other way round also and that is the magma forces the plates to move away and this results in the formation of a volcano. When one of plates dives under another plate, then the pressure creates melting of the mantle and thereby forms magma which in turn creates volcanoes.
