DIA [1.3K]3 years ago
9 0

Answer:

The correct answer would be a. the sum of all genetic traits in a population’s individuals at a given time.

A gene pool is defined as a sum total of all the genes present in an inter-breeding population at a specific time.

It includes all the alleles of all the loci within the genes of a interbreeding population or species.

The composition of the gene pool of a population can change with course of a time due to evolution.

A large and diverse gene pool enhances the ability of a population to adapt, survive and evolve in a nature.

Whales have pelvic (hip) bones, which are evolutionary remains from when their forefathers walked on land about 40 million years ago. Common belief has long assumed that such bones are merely vestigial, slowly withering away like human tailbones. Thus option C is correct.

<h3>What is the new research from USC and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (NHM) has to say ?</h3>

New research from USC and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (NHM) contradicts this belief, discovering that not only do those pelvic bones have a role, but their size and perhaps shape are impacted by sexual selection processes.

Therefore, small, shrunken hip bones of whale are no longer beneficial for survival and are considered vestigial. So, the best option is C among the other options available. Thus option C is correct.

erica [24]

Answer:

Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells are fundamentally different.

Explanation:

A prokaryotic cell is basically an entire organism that works within a single cell. Its genetic material is not in a nucleus.

A eukaryotic cell is part of an organism. This cell has its genetic material in the nucleus. In addition, it possesses organelles.

All cells are not the same because some, like the prokaryotic ones, make up an entire living organism. Others, like the eukaryotic cells, are part of much more complex living forms. Furthermore, each cell type within each category has unique functions.

An efficiency apartment can be compared to a prokariote. Prokariotes have everything they need in one cell. A mansion is more similar to a eukaryote. Every room of the mansion is important for the fully equipped mansion.
