Answer:

Option B, Climate Change

Explanation:

In Tuvalu, the problem is due to its frequent climatic changes. The nation is witnessing continuous rising sea, storm, greenhouse gas issues, drying up of catchments etc.  

Most of the potable water requirement of Tuvalu is fulfilled by the storage system of the catchments which are getting dried. There is continuous erosion of beaches due to the carrying away of sand from beaches to use it in construction works and also there is excessive deforestation.  

All these devastating factors are causing a climate change in Tuvalu.

Thus option  B is correct

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''Translocation​.''

Translocation is a chromosomal abnormality that is due to a change in position of a chromosomal segment to another non-homologous chromosome of the same nucleus or to another part of it. It is produced by the exchange of segments between two chromosomes without loss of genetic material is called reciprocal or balanced translocation, when it gives rise to monocentric chromosomes.Translocations can be detected cytologically because the structural heterozygote forms a quadrivalent (4-chromosome association) in meiotic prophase. Sometimes they can also be detected by changes in the size of the chromosomes if the exchanged segments are of different lengths.
