Which hypothesis proposes the correct explanation for the variety of traits in a species? A. Cloning creates variety because offspring receive genetic material that is different from that of their parent.

B. Budding creates variety because offspring receive genetic material that is different from that of their parent.

C. Sexual reproduction creates variety because offspring have a different combination of genetic material than either parent.

D. Fragmentation and regeneration create variety because offspring receive genetic material that is different from that of their parent.

A. Cloning creates variety because offspring receive genetic material that is different from that of their parent.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
