Answer:

The correct answer is option D. a mutation in sex cells.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is the process in which new organisms are produced from the fusing or fertilization of the nucleus of a male sex cell and a female sex cell. Sex cells are also known as gametes.

Germinal mutations are those that occur in the egg or sperm cells and therefore can be passed on to the organism's offspring.

Mutation in A DNA that takes place in sex cells can be passed to offspring through sex cells. It can lead to genetic disorders such as sickle cell anemia.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

The answer is D. A mutation in sex cells. Sex cells are what affect offspring, so a mutation in the sex cell would most likely affect a person's offspring.

Heat's effect on the wind cycle is most easily observed near the sea. During the day, the ocean absorbs heat from the surface, keeping the air above it cooler than above the land. When the warm air rises from the shore, the cooler air from the ocean blows in to take its place. At night, the land cools quickly, while the ocean radiates the heat it absorbed, keeping the air above warm. This reverses the effect, causing the air offshore to rise and creating a breeze from the land. Uneven heating can also occur due geographical features. A mountainside exposed to the sun will warm more than a shadowed valley below it, creating a wind that blows uphill during the day and downhill at night.

The same principle is responsible for global wind patterns. The polar regions receive less solar radiation than areas near the equator, resulting in a global shift in temperature according to latitude. This, along with differences in temperature and density in various layers of the atmosphere, creates global wind patterns like the jet stream that help drive weather systems.
