The part of the CNS that is responsible for these functions is the brain stem.
The brain stem is the part of the brain that control very basic functions of your organism and lets them work together as they should. The other parts that are mentioned all have much more specific and also different roles.
Yes the following statements about her trout is likely true Because the ponds are different and the populations are likely to experience different mutations, the populations will likely diverge evolutionarily, but only over many generations.
Explanation:
The effect of genetic drift can be seen in all populations but the most is seen in small population. The change in allele frequency due to the sampling error would lead to evolution of the species.
Bottleneck effect is when a population gets reduced due to some natural disaster. Her friends were not right about bottleneck effect.
So it is clear that no bottleneck effect will occur as each pond have different chance or rate of mutation and the change in alleles will be different. The trouts will evolve independently in the different ponds and pass on the traits to their progeny.
Genetic drift does not take into account for the harm or benefit of the alleles that are passed on.
Variations, traits
Not all members of a species are the same. Every species exhibit variations. Traits, like eye color, are passed from parent to offspring.
Genetic variation is the subtle differences in the DNA sequence in each individual’s genomes. Genetic variation results in various forms or alleles of genes that determines distinct traits such as eye color, skin color, shape of face, and hair color that can be passed on from parents to offspring.
Meiosis involves crossing over where chromosomes exchange genetic segments, resulting in different sets of chromosomes. Each time an egg or sperm created, it is different due to this recombination. Mitosis on the other hand is non-sex cells replicating exact copies of themselves which lead to no genetic variation as they aren't involved in producing offspring.
The Euglena was green because it had chloroplasts in it, just like plants. The body structure at the base of the tail that relates to this is the photo receptor. These two enabled it to photosynthesize food like plants, but it could also take food from its surroundings like animals.
