Answer

  • Anatomy Species may share similar physical features because the feature was present in a common ancestor <u><em>(homologous structures)</em></u>.
  • Molecular biology DNA and the genetic code reflect the shared ancestry of life.
  • Biogeography The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect evolution and geological change.
  • Fossils Fossils document the existence of now-extinct past species that are related to present-day species.
  • <u><em>Direct observation</em></u> We can directly observe small-scale evolution in organisms with short lifecycles <u><em>(e.g., pesticide-resistant insects)</em></u>.

A small number of finches live in a protected bird sanctuary. Natural selection
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Natural selection  is least likely to occur in this population if:

  • The resources are continuously available

For a species to survive in an area, it is essential that the place has enough resources like nutrients, space, water etc. If these resources are available then there will be less chances of competition which will lead to lesser chances of natural selection.

  • The number of of death rates is equal to the number of of birth rates

In an balanced ecosystem, the number of birth rates is equal to the number of death rates for a population. If the number of death rates is lesser to the number of birth rates then the competition for resources will lead to natural selection.

sammy [17]

The medial pre Frontal Cortex neurons synapting with the intercalated cells of Amygdala contains <u>GABA</u> as the neurotransmitter.

Option a

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Amygdala has two types of nerve cells getting attached with it primarily. They are the fibres from the mPFC or medial pre Frontal Cortex and the vIPAG or ventrolateral periaqueductal grey. These neurons do have different functions on the whole body.

The fibres from the mPFC do have emotional function on the human body whereas the fibres of vIPAG do have an effect on the muscle tone . And it's seen that both the nerve fibres that are getting attached with the intercalated cells of Amygdala do secrete GABA and are inhibitory GAB Anergic in nature.
