Describe the evolution of modern whales and dolphins using the fossil evidence

Biology
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
4 0
Whales are related back to a hairy, 4-legged land mammal that eventually led to the formation of flippers without phalanges, a blow hole that became more dorsal, and other defining features. All of this has been backed by fossil evidence, especially that found within a certain desert region (can’t remember the name) that has a vast amount of whale fossils from many different time periods

What conditions are possible reasons for declining genetic diversity of a species? Select all correct answers.
yan [13]

Some conditions that are possible reasons for declining genetic diversity of a species;

▪︎loss of habitat

▪︎inbreeding

Explanation:

Loss of habitat will definitely reduce diversity because it reduces the population size from increased competition for reduced resources. Some subspecies may be completely eliminated when their niche is completely lost.

Inbreeding also reduces diversity because it results in the expression of recessive genes in a population that are mostly disadvantageous. High inbreeding rates will result in most individuals not reaching maturity to pass down their genes to the next generations.
