Match each species with its mode of evolution
Mice21 [21]
1. Convergent evolution - flying squirrel and flying phalanger. Convergent evolution is the process at which non monophyletic organisms, evolve similar traits. These traits are a result of adapting to similar environments but these organism still evolve them in different, independant ways.


2.Coevolution - bees and flowers. Coevolution is the process that takes place among organisms that take part in a mutual interaction during which both the organisms benefit one from another. For example: many flowers with short nectar tubes can die out, as well as well as the moths with short tongues until they meet each other and make pollination.

3. Divergent evolution - cichlid fishes. This type of evolution can be characterized as the accumulation of differences between groups that can form new species in a result of diffusion of the same ones from different environments. This process tends to block the gene flow among the distinct populations  which also allows fixation of traits through genetic drift.

Achondroplasia is a common form of dwarfism caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3
ollegr [7]
<h2>Symptoms of Achondroplasia</h2>

Explanation:

  • Achondroplasia is caused about by a quality change (transformation) in the <em>FGFR3 gene</em>
  • The <em>FGFR3 quality</em> makes a protein called fibroblast development factor <em>receptor 3 </em>that is engaged with changing over ligament to bone
  • <em>FGFR3</em> is the main quality known to be related with <em>achondroplasia Achondroplasia</em> is acquired in an autosomal predominant example, which implies one duplicate of the adjusted quality in every cell is adequate to<em> cause the confusion</em>
  • In the rest of the cases, individuals with <em>achondroplasia </em>have acquired an adjusted <em>FGFR3 quality</em> from a couple of <em>affected parents</em>
