Alleles are the individual genes that give rise to certain characteristics in an organism.
When an allele is "fixed" to a population, this means that the characteristic will be constant & most likely will not change until the environment changes as well.
Like with arctic hare, the alleles that influence the color of their coats (white in the winter & brown in the spring/summer) will stay because any fur pattern other than the aforementioned characteristics with result in becoming someone else's food with the lack of camouflage.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
H1
Explanation:
Histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 are known as the core histones which means that there are building nuclesome. H1 is known as the linker histone which binds to the "linker DNA" region between nucleosomes, helping stabilize the chromatin fiber. The linker histone H1 binds the nucleosome at the entry and exit sites of the DNA, thus locking the DNA into place and allowing the formation of higher order structure.

Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
Options
A. most populations were fixed for a single genotype, but genotypes varied among populations
B. average heterozygosity was declining steadily over time
C. individual populations were polymorphic for several loci and most populations were genetically similar to one another
D. all populations were fixed for the same allele at each locus studied
Solution
As per the study conducted by Templeton, it was found that human affect the biodiversity at all biological levels such as genetic, ecosystem, species etc. and behind genetic variation two important factors are genetic drift and gene flow.
Both the gene flow and genetic drift produce opposite results as genetic drift increase variation with in the species but decrease variation with in the local population and the opposite of this happens in gene flow.
Genetic drift has actually lead to speciation of collared lizards among themselves for a specific genotype
Hence, option A is correct
