Answer:
option c punctuated equilibrium
Explanation:
Punctuated equilibrium occurs in a process whereby evolutionary changes occurs in some organisms in a rapid burst of time rather the conceived gradual changes that occurs over a long period of time. this burst of time might be in about 500,000 years. It is assumed that the organism has maintained/lives in stasis for a long period without a need for change, but then, once the change takes place (most of the time, due to an environmental factor), the organism quickly adapts to its new environment with this new adaptation.

Answer:
The protein is known as Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) that is present in inner mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose cells of mammals and other organisms undergoing hibernation.
Function:
- The protein allows the organisms to produce metabolic heat that helps in the organism’s regulation of body temperature.
- This protein can also serve as a source of carbon for the production of carbohydrates when organism faces the period of prolonged fasting and thus help the organism to survive.
- The protein also helps in the movement of protons into the mitochondrial matrix that ultimately activate the electron transport chain and releases more and more heat for body’s maintenance.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
The correct answer would be calcium ion and cAMP.
Secondary messengers refers to the intracellular signaling molecules which pass the signals from the receptors located on the surface of the cell to the target molecule present within the cell.
The secondary messengers can be classified into three major class:
- Cyclic nucleotide for example cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate), cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate)
- DAG (diacylglycerol) and IP₃ (inositol triphosphate)
- Calcium ions (Ca⁺⁺)
Hence, from the given options, calcium ion and cAMP would make the correct choice.
