How do mutations in DNA lead to genetic variation within a species?
O
A. They increase the rate at which parents can produce offspring.
O
B. They reduce the amount of time it takes parents to produce
offspring
O
C. They result in new traits being inherited by offspring from their
parents.
O
D. They cause offspring to have the exact same DNA as their
parents.

C. They result in new traits being inherited by offspring from their

parents.

Explanation:

Heredity is the process through which a new individual acquires traits from its parents during the event of reproduction.During the cell division process, genetic information(DNA structure) containing chromosomes are transferred into the cell of the new individual, therefore, passing traits to the next generation

im gonna compare the cells to jobs in factory. give brainliest

job in the factory //       cell organelle   //  

shipping/receiving

department                 plasma membrane    

chief executive officer// nucleus

factory floor // cytoplasm

assembly line// endoplasmic reticulum

workers in the assembly line //ribosomes

finishing/packaging department //golgi apparatus

maintenance crew //lysosomes

support beams (walls, ceilings, floors) //cytoskeleton

power plant //mitochondria/chloroplasts

here's what each part of the cell does:

plasma membrane :

regulates what enters and leaves the cell; where cell makes contact with the external environment

nucleus :

controls all cell activity; determines what proteins will be made

cytoplasm :

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

endoplasmic reticulum:

where ribosomes do their work

ribosomes :

build the proteins

golgi apparatus :

prepares proteins for use or export

lysosomes :

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell

cytoskeleton :

maintains cell shape

mitochondria/chloroplasts :

transforms one form of energy into another

only about ten percent of the energy at one trophic level is passed on to organisms at the next trophic level. the remainder of the energy is used in life processes or lost as heat.
