The type of evolutionary mechanism that occurred was natural selection
Answer:
D. Take many thousands of years to form
Explanation:
James Hutton discovered thin layers of sediments on his flooded farm and he concluded that strata was part of the earth surface in the past and thus takes many thousands of years to form.
This led to the principle of uniformitarianism which states that the geologic processes now are the same with the ones in the past.
Answer:
C) decreased functional reserve
Explanation:
Ageing is a biological process which leads to the loss of function of the tissue and cells of the organism.
The biological ageing is determined genetically and can be correlated with the chronological ageing. The ageing is also influenced by the environmental factors which could interfere with the physiology, anatomy and morphology of the organisms.
The cell division cycle gets arrested to prevent the proliferation of these damaged cells and to remove the harmful factors from the body. This leads to the loss of function of the cells and tissues.
Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
