Answer:

The correct answer is option b) "obesogenic environments".

Explanation:

According to the article of Lake A "Obesogenic environments: exploring the built and food environments" (2006), an obesogenic environment is defined as "'the sum of influences that the surroundings, opportunities, or conditions of life have on promoting obesity in individuals or populations". This kind of environment is presented in the US and other developed countries, which contrast with the environment in developing countries who may suffer from famine and starvation.

Why does incomplete dominance not support the blending theory of inheritance?
Nookie1986 [14]
Incomplete dominance can happen in flowers such as snap dragons where a red flower plant and a white flower plant have an offspring that is neither red nor white but is a mix so in this case it would be pink. It does not support the blending theory as it does not get its colour from the dominant plant in this case but from both.

What occurred during the Perian period that drastically altered organism population on Earth? Be detailed
White raven [17]
The Permian period, which ended in the largest mass extinction the Earth has ever known, began about 299 million years ago. The emerging supercontinent of Pangaea presented severe extremes of climate and environment due to its vast size. The south was cold and arid, with much of the region frozen under ice caps. Northern areas suffered increasingly from intense heat and great seasonal fluctuations between wet and dry conditions. The lush swamp forests of the Carboniferous were gradually replaced by conifers, seed ferns, and other drought-resistant plants.

Early reptiles were well placed to capitalize on the new environment. Shielded by their thicker, moisture-retaining skins, they moved in where amphibians had previously held sway. Over time, they became ideally suited to the desert-type habitats in which they thrive today.

What causes speciation and why might there be very unique species on an island?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Geographic isolation and reduction of gene flow are the main causes of speciation.

A very unique species might evolve on an island because the environment and living conditions are different and it will need to adapt to it. (e.g. island dwarfism)

Explanation:

Geographic isolation most often occurs with populations that are completely separated by a physical barrier, such as a mountain range, river, or desert. The separated populations adapt to their own unique environments, becoming so genetically different from one another that members of one population cannot breed with members of the other.
