B. Hypothalamus and pituitary gland
Answer:
The reasons are explained below -
Explanation:
The large finches living on the Galapagos islands are different from the original source population from a nearby islands because of the following reasons -
- A natural selection favored only the large finches because they are more fit to the current environmental conditions.
- A genetic drift has been occurred in the two populations living on the nearby islands.
- Due to the separation of habitat on both the islands, the gene flow between the two islands is reduced.
All the above listed reasons are responsible for the difference in the finches found on the two islands.

The purple spots on the colorless background of corn kernels observed by Barbara McClintock were the result of the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.
<h3>What are the genetic elements found in corn?</h3>
- A transposable element is removed from one spot in the DNA and inserted into a different site in the DNA during the process of genetic transposition, which allows genes to shift their location on chromosomes.
- The first recognized genetic instability was caused by genetic transposition.
- The size of the tissue patch displaying the reversion phenotype increases as a reversion event happens earlier in the kernel development.
- Barbara McClintock saw purple dots on maize kernels with an otherwise colorless background.
- These spots were caused by the Ds components of the color gene being transposed.
- The wild-type (purple) phenotype manifests itself in cells where Ds from the color gene "C" sequence has been lost.
Hence, Barbara McClintock discovered purple patches on the colorless backdrop of maize kernels due to the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.
