Assortative mating is the evolutionary mechanism that changes genotype frequencies but does not change allele frequencies.

Assortative mating is the type where two individuals mate with each other on the basis of their similarities and dissimilarities. This is a different phenomenon than the random mating that occurs by chance. Assortative mating can be used to increase the number of organisms of a population containing a certain trait.

Allele is the alternative form of a gene. It arises due to mutations. A gene can have more than one types of alleles. However, usually a gene only has one allele. The alleles are found at the same location of the homologous chromosomes.

Dysentery can lead to ________ and/or organ failure if medical attention is not sought in time.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

Dysentery is an abnormal condition that is caused by the infection of the intestine in humans. The infection could be caused by the bacteria or the amoeba.

The disease can be characterized by the cramps in the stomach, diarrhea, and the loss of blood through feces.

Untreated dysentery can lead to the loss of a large amount of blood through feces and will lower the amount of blood in humans.

This severe loss of blood will give rise to another disease called hypovolemic shock is which the heart fails to pump enough blood to the organs due to which the other organs of the body can fail to work properly. This condition can lead to death.

Thus, Option-B is correct.
