The answer is <span>A. Decrease in genetic variation
</span><span>
A founder effect is a result of a geographical separation of a few individuals from the original population. Those few founding individuals will form a new population so they are founders. In this new population, there will be present alleles of the few founding individuals. However, those few founding individuals do not represent a whole genetic variation of the old population, but only some part of it.
Imagine a population of fish in which there are yellow, green, blue, and red colored fish. In the population, there is a genetic variation. But, if a few green-colored and red-colored fish geographically separate from the population and form a new population, in the new population there will be decreased genetic variation (because there are only green and red fish compared to the old population where are fish in 4 different colors).</span>

What tropic hormone stimulates cortisol from the adrenal gland?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

c) adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).

Explanation:

A tropic hormone is defined as the hormone which is secreted from one gland and acts on another gland. ACTH is released by anterior portion of our pituitary gland during the condition of biological stress. After it is released, it acts on adrenal gland so that adrenal gland could secrete another hormone named as cortisol (steroid hormone). In response to stress, cortisol increases blood sugar level, elevates brain's use of glucose etc. so as to counter stressful situation.

Apart from this cortisol also helps in regulating our metabolism, reduces inflammation and controls salt and water balance.
