Answer:

<u>The mutation rate is the speed (or mutations per unit time) at which a sequence of DNA changes, either through natural means or artificially induced means. Natural selection is the way that a population of organisms evolve over time to adapt to their environment.</u>

Answer:

Under these conditions an increase in the mutation rate evolves, which allows faster adaptation to the spatial variation in local temperature, causing a faster range expansion across the spatial gradient.

drek231 [11]

Answer:

c) Combustion of fossil fuels

Explanation:

Burning of fossil fuels is the main cause of increasing carbondioxide concentration in the environment which results in air pollution. This increase in carbondioxide concentration absorbed more heat energy from reflected solar radiation which increases the temperature of earth surface causes global warming. Due to this global warming, snow melting occurs on the poles of the earth which increases sea level.
