Those children who present the signs of a scoliosis in the inspection of the trunk are: asymmetry of height of shoulders, prominence of one of the scapulae and asymmetry of the flank with prominence of one of the iliac rims. To optimize the identification of these aspects, the examination should be done only with underwear.

when a population split into two subgroups what is most likely to cause the subgroups to develop different traits?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer: The question is is incomplete, here are the options.

A. Separating the two groups decreases the chance that the two groups will diverge

B. Traits that form in one group from evolutionary forces quickly spread through both populations

C. Forces like natural selection and genetic drift affect the genes of the two subgroups differently

D. Gene flow is increased in the two subgroups that are formed

The correct Option is C.

C. Forces like natural selection and genetic drift affect the genes of the two subgroups differently.

Explanation:

Forces of natural selection and genetic drift affect the genes of the two subgroups differently because there are differences In the way they are natural selected and genetic drift.

Natural selection is the different phenotype or traits developed by different organisms who h make them to adapt, survive and reproduce than others in their environment. The two sub groups have different phenotype Expressed which cause them to develop different trait.

Genetic drift refers to change or variation in frequency of genes in animals overtime. Genetic drift occur at different rate in different population of organsim which lead to development of different trait in the subgroup.

Why would natural selection not occur without genetic variations in species
Fudgin [204]
Natural selection only occurs when there is a superiority within a species set. If there is no genetic variation, no single animal is any better than the next, making the presence of superiority impossible and survival left up to chance. In this case it would be considered genetic continuity.

Desalinating salt water is one way arid regions are able to obtain drinking water. however, it's not an easy process.
Leya [2.2K]
Drinking Salt water would dehydrate you making you more thirsty and eventually you'd die. You could desalinate small amounts of water by distillation with the appropriate tools all you'd need to do is heat the salt water and catch the vapor/steam in a different container. This could be done slowly using heat from the sun and clear plastic water bottles if no other heat sources are available. the salt stays in the heated container while the vapor/steam is desalinated drinking water.
