Answer:
option c punctuated equilibrium
Explanation:
Punctuated equilibrium occurs in a process whereby evolutionary changes occurs in some organisms in a rapid burst of time rather the conceived gradual changes that occurs over a long period of time. this burst of time might be in about 500,000 years. It is assumed that the organism has maintained/lives in stasis for a long period without a need for change, but then, once the change takes place (most of the time, due to an environmental factor), the organism quickly adapts to its new environment with this new adaptation.
Metagenomics is the study of genetic material recovered directly from environmental sample. Its field has been responsible for substantial advances in microbial ecology, evolution, and diversity over the past 5 to 10 years and many research laboratories are actively engaged in it now. Using metagenomics, the distinctions between bacterial species are based upon the comparison of DNA nucleotide sequences of different bacterial species.
Answer:
Homeostasis is the ability to maintain a relatively stable internal state that persists despite changes in the world outside. All living organisms, from plants to puppies to people, must regulate their internal environment to process energy and ultimately survive.
