Biology
1 answer:
Anna35 [415]4 years ago
7 0

The genetic equilibrium represents the condition of a genotype or an allele in the genetic pool of a particular population, where there are no changes in the frequency in the successive generations. This basically means that the population has managed to reach the peak of its evolution for the environment in which it leaves, so there's no evolutionary pressure for changes.

In order for the genetic equilibrium to be maintained for prolonged period of time, the population should not face any evolutionary pressure that will cause changes in it. In essence, this means that the environment in which the population lives should remain exactly the same as it is for longer period of time, so the population will have no need to change its appearance or behavior.

Brut [27]

Answer:

Although the question is incomplete, missing options are

  • In 1997, they reduced their water consumption.
  • In 1996, they planted more trees to curb water pollution.
  • In 1994, they used only bottled water for drinking purpose.
  • In 1995, they complained about foul odor and taste in water.

Correct option: <em><u>In 1996, they planted more trees to curb water pollution. </u></em>

Explanation:

Among given options, a clear trend of nitrate level can be seen. <u>Initially, the nitrate level increased in water in first two years (1994 and 1995) and then it decreased significantly</u>.

From the conditions given in the question, the most probable answer is B the plantation effect (<u>phytoremediation</u>). During phytoremediation, <u>plants take up nutrients including nitrate</u> from the water via roots. This nitrogen is then used for the growth and development of plant body mass (e.g. amino acids). As more plants were growing in later years, higher reduction of nitrate was seen. Resultantly, in 1997, the concentration of nitrate was dropped to 7.3 mg/L.

The other options are not correct due to following reasons.

A. There is no information on water consumption in the question

C. There is no information on people's behavior on drinking water lifestyle.

D. Nitrate in the water cannot be smelled or tasted.
