The answer is coexistence.

When two organisms are found in the same niche they can not generally coexist in the long term. But it is possible that one of the two organisms adapts to the lifestyle of the second organism, or one of the two organisms disappears (by extinction or by migration).

Answer:

The correct answer would be d. Coexistence

This can be explained with the help of the competitive exclusion principle which states that two species occupying the same niche cannot coexist.

It is because they would compete for the same limiting resources and thus the species which has even the slightest survival advantage over another will survive and the other would extinct.

Thus, coexistence is not a possible long-term consequence of two organisms occupying the same niche.

Igoryamba

Complete question:

A female is born with attached earlobes, which is a recessive phenotype. Which of the following statements about her parents must be true?

a. neither has the codominant allele.

b. Her father has an inactivated allele.

c. Both parents have the recessive allele.

d. Her mother carries the dominant allele.

Answer:

c. Both parents have the recessive allele.

Explanation:

A recessive trait is expressed in homozygous recessive genotypes only. If a female expresses the attached earlobe phenotype, she should be homozygous for the allele since the attached earlobe is a recessive trait. If allele "a" gives attached earlobe phenotype in homozygous genotype, the genotype of the female would be "aa". This means that the female has got one copy of the allele "a" from her either parents. Therefore, both her parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele "a".
