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.

Find out which animal is actually most closely related to the hawk: shark, bat, or alligator. Report your findings and explanati
allsm [11]

Hi, In my opinion, <u>bat</u> will be the most closely related to hawk.

<h2>Why?</h2>

This is because, when we consider the photo of a bat and a hawk, we notice the similarities like:-

• Wings- They have nearly the same short wings decreasing the area of contact with air and enabling higher flight area.

• Presence of small snouted beak-like structure and presence of less or more similar color.

• Both live in trees and are normally not companiable with humans.

• Hawks and bats are both having a similar anatomy, not body, I meant that they have similar positioning of organs like stomach, pancreas etc.

• They have the sense of locating prey miles away, enabling easier locating of food.

Hope this helps...
