Answer:

In the United States there are existing state laws to protect people from genetic discrimination in areas such as insurance companies and workplaces.

Explanation:

Genetic discrimination is based on the possibility that an individual manifests a disability or inherited disease due to a genetic alteration.

In many cases, both workplaces and insurance companies require genetic testing before granting a job or an insurance policy.

A federal law - Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act or GINA - protects people against this requirement of their future employers or any insurance company and guarantees, with certain exceptions, the possibility of obtaining a job or medical insurance.

Evolution is the
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Evolution is the <u>biological process</u> that happens over time in a population, giving rise to new <u>species.</u> The theory of evolution states that all organisms alive on Earth today <u>have a common ancestor</u> which lived <u>years ago</u>.

Explanation:

Evolution is one of the fundamental reason of diverse life on Earth today. Principally, this process takes place by changes in genetic elements via mutations and crossing-over. The positive changes (mutations) allow the organism to develop better condition in order to survive in changing environmment. However, if the changes takes place at major scale, it also leads to the creation/development of new species. To explain this further, I have added a photograph where we can see how different organisms were evolved in the history of Earth.

ruslelena [56]

Answer: overpopulation of predators

Explanation: Overpopulation of predators is the correct option. Predators are the organisms which kill other organism so as to obtain them as food. The organism being killed is called as the prey.

If the population of the predators increase this will lead to the extinction of many species of prey. As it is evident that every organism in the ecosystem has a typical role to play. Therefore, it can be said that role of prey will not be performed and this may lead to disturbance in the ecological balance.
