A mutation is the alteration of the genetic sequence of an organism, which can either be inherited or cannot be inherited. The mutation when transmitted to the offspring leads to genetic variation.
The correct answer is:
Option B. Yes, the mutations can be passed on to offspring and contribute to variation in the population.
Mutation is the change in the genetic sequence of the organism, which can be caused due to environmental factors and can be inherited.
The mutations can lead to genetic disorders, chromosomal disorders, or any other conditions. The mutations like a disease or adaptation that can be passed onto the offspring can result in genetic variation.
The mutation leads to genetic diversity, as the mutation is also the first step towards evolution. The organisms better suited to the environment will survive more and adapt more. These changes in the organisms will be inherited by the offspring leading to genetic variation.
Therefore Option B is correct.

What are new stars that are found in the spiral arms and formed from recycled dead star material known as?
population II stars
red dwarf stars
population I stars
brown dwarf stars
Answer:
population I stars.
Explanation:
A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.
It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).
The luminosity of a star can be defined as the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w). Also, the apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second. The apparent brightness of a star is typically measured in watts per square meter.
Some of the examples of stars are; Canopus, Sun (closest to the Earth), Betelgeus, Antares, Vega etc.
New stars that are found in the spiral arms and formed from recycled dead star material are known as population I stars. Also, it comprises of association and clusters formed a million or billion years ago in the spiral arms of Milky Way galaxy.
A galaxy can be defined as a collection or group of many billions of stars and other planetary body which are existing independently.

QUESTION 14
1 points
Save Answer
Answer:
The correct answer would be - AUGCUUAUC
Explanation:
The new mRNA strands are made by the process called transcription that involves an enzyme that helps to copy a segment of DNA or gene to produce a new RNA strand that encodes for the protein. In this process, a new RNA strand copied the complementary to the sequence of DNA strand. It means adenosine is copied into its complementary form uracil in RNA, Thymin to adenosine, cytosine to guanine and guanine to cytosine.
Original strands: TACGAATAG
new RNA strand: AUGCUUAUC

How does the carnivorous plant catch its victums?
Pitfall traps (pitcher plants) trap prey in a rolled leaf that contains a pool of digestive enzymes or bacteria. Flypaper traps use a sticky mucilage. Snap traps utilise rapid leaf movements. Bladder traps suck in prey with a bladder that generates an internal vacuum.
Answer:
They use special traps that are connected to them.
Explanation:
For example, the Venus Flytrap uses it's "mouth" to close on the fly. A sundew plant uses sticky spines to stuck to the bugs and slowly curls up and digests the bug.

A biologist wants to measure the effect of gene flow between populations. Which of the following investigations will allow her to accomplish this goal?
A)An investigation that determines a change in allelic frequency of a wolf population by theimmigration of a wolf from another population.
B)An investigation that determines the amount of time it takes for genes from a bee to transfer to the flower it fertilizes.
C)An investigation that determines the causes of mutations in genes that one species of guinea pig transfer to another species of guinea pig.
D)An investigation that determines the rate at which an antibiotic prevents a virus from transferring genes to a cat.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Cause I say so
The investigation that will allow a biologist to measure the effect of gene flow between populations is that a change in allelic frequency of a wolf population by the immigration of a wolf from another population. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.
What is Population?A population may be defined as a group of individuals belonging to the same species living in the same area at a given time. The size, density, abundance, birth rate, death rate, dispersal, etc. are categorized as the characteristics of a population. These characteristics are known as demographic factors.
According to the context of this question, the process of gene flow can be determined by collating allele frequencies of populations. With this mechanism, if the two populations have increased variation in their gene pool, it expresses a lesser amount of gene flow because gene flow increases homogeneity among different populations.
Therefore, the correct option for this question is A.
