Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be endemic.
Explanation:
Endemic organisms are taxonomic species (plants and animals) which originates and distributed only in specific geographic regions. This state of evolution is called endemism.
They are said to be native or indigenous to that particular region which can be an ecological habitat, an entire nation, an island, a mountain range etc. Certain parts are known for majority of their species being endemic like St. Helen Island, New Caledonia Island, Hawaiian Islands, Southern regions of Africa, and Australia.
The species becomes endemic to a particular region because of the presence of certain bio-geographical environmental qualities of that habitat which are favorable to that species.
When these conditions become unfavorable, then species becomes restricted leading to endangerment or extinction of the species.
Examples:
- Kangaroo - Australia
- Nilgiri Tahr, - Nilgiri Hills, India
- The Redwood trees of West Coast of the USA
- Plants like kalo, sumac of Hawaii

Answer:
B. Mutation; C. Random genetic drift; D. Migration; F. Natural selection
Explanation:
B. Mutation: Mutations resulting from substitution, addition or deletions of a nucleotide in a sequence can alter the gene. This can be carried over a population and may be have deleterious effects or increase fitness in a gene.
C. Random genetic drift: It is a change in allele frequency that occurs by chance, usually in a small population and is carried over generations.
D. Migration: Involves the flow of a gene in or out of a population, and this modifies the allele frequency.
F. Natural selection: When fitness-promoting alleles are favored and carried over to the next generation.
