The genetic variations seen in and between populations are known as human genetic variation.

Humans differ genetically from one another. Due to developmental mutations and gene copy-number variation, even monozygotic twins, who arise from a single zygote, may differ genetically. Techniques like genetic fingerprinting rely on individual differences, even between closely related people.

There are 324 million identified variations from sequenced human genomes as of 2017.

A person's genome typically differs from the reference genome by 20 million base pairs, or 0.6% of the total 3.2 billion base pairs, as of 2015.

In contrast to other species, humans are genetically uniform. While a limited number of genetic variations are found more commonly in particular geographic regions or in individuals with ancestry from those places, this variance accounts for the majority of genetic variation.

Genetic variation between populations occurs for at least three reasons. If an allele offers a competitive advantage, natural selection may endow people with an adaptive advantage in a particular environment.

The image below shows a convergent plate boundary.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

the answer is volcanoes

Explanation:

The oceanic crust collides with the continental crust to form a convergent boundary. At the convergent boundary, the denser oceanic crust sinks under the lighter continental crust. The rocks of the oceanic crust reach very high temperatures of about 12,000°C, which is enough to melt the rocks. These molten rocks travel upward through cracks and crevices in the continental crust. They then erupt on the surface as volcanoes. Therefore, the feature expected to form at point X as the result of converging plates would be volcanoes.
