Answer:
A
Explanation:
The thrifty gene hypothesis postulates that due to dietary scarcity during human evolution, people are prone to obesity by storing energy as fat, an ability to take advantage of rare periods of abundance and this is advantageous during times of food availability. individuals with greater adipose reserves would more likely survive famine. This tendency to store fat could lead to obesity.
FTO is an enzyme that is encoded in humans by FTO gene located on chromosome 16. Increase in this enzyme is associated with the regulation of energy intake but not feeding reward. Also, the set point theory indicates that bodies are meant to stay within a narrow weight range but it is susceptible to chnage overtime.
Answer:
Direct observation of evolutionary change: creation of drug-resistant bacteria.
Fossil record: discovery of transitional forms of animals, discovery of shells of extinct organisms
Homology: similarities in mammalian forelimbs, identical genetic code in fireflies and tobacco plants, vestigial pelvis in right whales
Biogeography: resemblance of endangered island species to neighboring mainland species,
Answer:
Mitosis is the process in which the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell divides. During this process, sister chromatids separate from each other and move to opposite poles of the cell. This happens in four phases, called prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
