Answer:

RNA world hypothesis.

Explanation:

RNA is present as the genetic material in some viruses only. RNA is produced from the template DNA by the process of transcription and helps in the protein gene expression.

According to RNA world hypothesis, RNA is considered to be the first genetic material as it has the ability to store the genetic material. The oxyribose sugar makes the RNA more reactive than the DNA molecule. The RNA also has the ability to work enzyme known as ribozyme. Hence, RNA has the ability to store the information and acts as catalyst.

Thus, the answer is RNA world hypothesis.

Answer:

Founder effect

Explanation:

Founder effect occurs when a small number of individuals move out from a larger population and then develop a new population in an isolated place such that it leads to a decreased genetic diversity in the population established by a fewer individuals.
As a result of the founder effect the genetic diversity is reduced in the descendants of the founder population which leads to an increase in the probability of having a genetic disorder.
Therefore, since the mice being blind due to a genetic defect escape from the laboratory and breeds then the subsequent generations will most likely be blind from birth as a result of founder effect.
