Answer:

brain, cephalization

Explanation:

Cephalization is an evolutionary mechanism which led to the concentration of nerve ganglia, sense organs and mouth at animal's front end giving rise to a head region. Clustering of nerve ganglia in head produced the brain region.

It is a trend adopted in more advanced organisms due to movement and bilateral symmetry. Three groups of animals show cephalization: arthropods (insects), cephalopod molluscs (octopus, squid) and vertebrates (mammals, birds, fishes). Cephalization has been studied extensively in vertebrates. As the groups advance in vertebrates, the brain becomes more elaborate and complex.

Answer:

Random mating

hope it helps!

There are five basic Hardy-Weinberg assumptions: no mutation, random mating, no gene flow, infinite population size, and no selection. If the assumptions are not met for a gene, the population may evolve for that gene (the gene's allele frequencies may change).
