Genetic drift is a change in allele frequencies caused by random events.Therefore in this case the correct answer is the change in allele frequencies caused by random events. Genetic drift is one of the basic mechanism of evolution along with natural selection, mutation and migration. In each generation, several individuals may randomly leave behind a few more descendants than other individuals. Genetic drift occurs when the occurrence of variant forms of a gene (allele) increases or decreases by chance over time.

astra-53 [7]

<u>Answer</u>:  

Different type of the same procedure that takes the place of the kidneys and cleans the blood are mutually all known as osmoregulation.

<u>Explanation</u>:  

Along with kidney there are other organs which helps the body to purify blood. These organs are lungs which exchanges carbon dioxide with oxygen and skin which helps in excreting the extra salt concentration from the body. In invertebrate animals the kidney is not present but osmoregulation takes place with the help of organelles and organs like vacuoles, nephridia, antennal glands, salt glands and malpighian tubules.
