Answer:

D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.

Explanation:

The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population,  are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the  alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.

What percent of one’s daily caloric intake should come from carbohydrates?
NISA [10]
This answer will vary a lot, depending on who you will ask. If you're asking proponents of the LCHF (low carbs, high fat) diet, they would say you should reduce your intake of carbohydrates down to around 10 to 20 percent, making either A or C your desired answer.

If you would ask people who propose the current nutritional guidelines as the best way of eating, the amount of caloric intake that should come from carbs according to them would be more in the range of around 40%, making B the correct answer.

There isn't really any clear cut answer here.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

I think the answer is the first option, more reliable and harder to use.

Explanation:
