The correct answer is - The Mesohippus is older than the Pliohippus.

Trying to date the fossils according to the layers in which they are found can be very useful and relatively accurate. It has to be taken in consideration though that the layers of rocks should not be disturbed by geological processes, as that can give totally different results.

In this case, the fossils of the Pliohippus are found in layers closer to the surface, while the fossils of the Mesohippus are found in layers that further down, bellow the layers in which the Pliohippus fossils are found. This means that the Pliohippus is an animal that lived after the Mesohippus lived, thus making it a younger species, while the Mesohippus would be the older species.

Answer:

The correct option is Incomplete dominance.

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance describes the situation in which the phenotype of heterozygous is different from that of their respective homozygous. It means that when both parents are homozygous for some feature, each expressing a particular phenotype, their heterozygous descendants have a phenotype that will be between the phenotypes of their parents. In the present case, the woman has curly hair ( dominant homozygous) and the man has straight hair (recessive homozygous), but the child have wavy hair (heterozygous), not curly nor straight.
