The toxic condition characterized by retention of nitrogenous substances in the blood is called uremia.  Uremia is a toxic condition caused by retention in the blood of nitrogenous waste products normally excreted in the urine.  Acute renal failure denotes a sudden onset of renal failure, such as that caused by an accident, certain drugs or poison. The kidneys may recover or the damage may be permanent. If the kidneys stop functioning this condition is what they called uremia, therefore the body is full of  extra water and waste products, leading to swelling in the hands or feet, fatigue and weakness. End-stage renal disease refers to when the kidneys have lost all or nearly all function.

Answer:

C. Characters with little genetic variation will constrain the rate of natural selection

Explanation:

Natural selection can have an effect only as long as there are variations on characters on which it can select upon. Genetic variation is independent of the environment or the needs that a species may have to become better adapted to its changing environment. In other words, genetic mutations are the raw material on which natural selection can work. If there is a low rate for mutations to occur, then natural selection will proceed at a slow pace. The opposite is also true. Since mutation rate may be more frequent at some locations in a gene than at others, it can be predicted that the characters coded in that gene location will be more likely to be affected by natural selection and therefore what phenotype may be molded by natural selection.
