Answer:
1). C mutation followed by natural selection
The ability of random mutation and natural selection accounts for the complexity of life (evolution).
2). C exons
Each separate exon encodes an individual protein folding unit or domain.
3). C homologous recombinations
Homologous recombination is a type of geneticrecombination in which nucleotide sequences are exchanged between two similar or identical molecules of DNA. It is most widely used by cells to accurately repair harmful breaks that occur on both strands of DNA, known as double-strand breaksDuplications can arise from unequal crossing-over that occurs during meiosis between misaligned homologus chrosmosomes.
4). B DNA replication and repair
5). D exon shuffling allows bacteria to become antibiotic resistant
