Fact, BRCA genes help with cell division in the breast and prostate regions. Therefore, if they are mutated, the cell division process wouldn't function normally and possibly end up in cancer since the BRCA genes tend to be tumor suppressors (cancer is a malignant tumor).

Multiple Choice New species arise when a. a portion of the population becomes isolated from the remainder of the population and
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a. a portion of the population becomes isolated from the remainder of the population and experiences different selective pressures

Explanation:

This is an example of allopatric speciation Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation (formation of new species) that occurs as a result of geographic isolation. This means that a part of population becomes physically separated from the initial main population. There is no gene flow between these two populations and as a result the two populations  reach a high level  of genetic divergence. They can no longer interbreed which means they become two different species (speciation).

New populations evolve as result of mutation, genetic drift and natural selection.

For example, Galapagos finches are isolated from others by the ocean (geographic isolation).  Because of the isolation, the finches don’t breed with one another. So, they developed unique characteristics and became endemic.

Moderates weather so that highs and lows are less extreme<br><br> I need the factor of that
Yuki888 [10]

The presence of some water body like oceans, seas, or large lake in an area affects the climate such that it moderates the weather so that highs and lows are less extreme.

Climate is a type of weather that remains in an area for a very long-time. A specific kind of weather is the identity of any area and is called climate. In general, the average time period for a climate to remain the same of over 30 years.

Weather is the short term condition of any smaller area that can change at any instant. It can be of different varieties like cloudy, windy, rainy, dry, etc. Th presence of water bodies affects the weather because the water allows a region to cool down to heat up quickly.
