<h2>Inbreeding </h2>

Explanation:

Inbreeding is defined as the formation of offspring which results from the mating of two closely related organisms

Inbreeding affects allele frequencies and genotype frequencies in a population in following ways:

Inbreeding increases homozygosity which in turn decreases the biological fitness of a population because there are chances that offsprings will be affected by deleterious traits in this case
Inbreeding itself does not cause evolution, because allele frequencies do not change in the population as a whole

Answer:

A. Wavelength

B. Wave Crest

C. Amplitude

D. Wave trough

Explanation:

The parts of a wave as shown in the image include the following: wavelength, amplitude or wave height, wave crest, wave trough etc.

- Wavelength is the horizontal distance between two adjacent locations or points on a wave. These locations can be the wave trough or wave crest. In this image, letter A describes the wavelength of two successive wave crests.

- Wave crest refers to the highest point on a wave i.e. the point above the middle or undisturbed line of a wave. In this image, letter B is used to represent the wave Crest.

- Wave trough refers to the lowest point on a wave i.e. the point below the middle or undisturbed line of a wave. In this image, letter D used to represent the wave trough.

- The amplitude or wave height is the vertical distance between the middle of a wave and the wave trough or a wave crest. Letter C represents the amplitude in this image.
