Answer:
D. Population genetics
Population genetics is the study of genetic variation within populations, and involves the examination and modelling of changes in the frequencies of genes and alleles in populations over space and time. ... In natural populations, however, the genetic composition of a population's gene pool may change over time.
Explanation:
microevolution - evolutionary change within a species or small group of organisms, especially over a short period. (Not studying the overall evolution in the population, just a single allele usually) Not it then
macroevolution - Macroevolution in the modern sense is evolution that is guided by selection among interspecific variation, as opposed to selection among intraspecific variation in microevolution (this goes over huge groups of different species) Not it then
gene pool - The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. (Not the study of evolution in a population) Not that then
So it has to be D
Answer:
What was the first hominid ancestor?
The first early hominid from Africa, the Taung child, as it was known, was a juvenile member of Australopithecus africanus, a species that lived one million to two million years ago, though at the time skeptical scientists said the chimpanzee-size braincase was too small for a hominid.
Answer:
Lightning
Explanation:
The term plasma referred to that condition when the electrons are "freed" from their host atoms for a short time. It happens due to the high temperatures.
Lightning is a plasma because when a column of electrons moves from sky to ground, the air that it passes through lights up with energy. What we see as lightning is the air. In this air, the electrons are excited and giving off light. We see it as a light.
From this brief discussion, we can say that as electrons become free and become excited and then give light, lighting is a plasma.
