Hi
The term lack of genetic diversity for a particular population refers to the fact that there are less number of alleles and less range of phenotypes and traits like (height, skin, color, ability to cope disease, ability to change metabolism as per requirement etc).
If we talk about endangered species, they are the specie which are prone to be extinct in near future because their population is very less in number. There can be multiple reason of becoming endangered for a population such as over hunting etc.
So when we say that an endangered population is genetically less diverse, it means that there are further difficulties that hinder their recovery.
For example: If a calamity stucks, all organisms that are already low in number and also genetically less diverse, so they cannot cope with calamity and get extinct. However, if this population is genetically more diverse, some organisms may survive some may die, and those which survive can recover the population. That is why it becomes more difficult to recover an endangered specie if it is genetically less diverse. The more the genetic diversity, better it is for specie.
Hope it help!
Answer:
DNA and genetic code
Explanation:
Comparing DNA can show how species are related.
R, S, and T always have the same percentage composition, while X, Y, and Z always have the same percentage composition. Chargaff's rule is then a viable theory that can be used in this situation.
- The DNA of any species of any organism must have a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of the purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, according to Chargaff's principles.
- More specifically, the ratio of guanine and adenine to cytosine and thymine must be the same. This pattern is present in both the strands of the DNA.
- The formula comes as A + G = T + C = 1
- In this universe there are six base pairs R,S,T,X,Y and Z. composition of R,S and T is always same thus these can be considered the purines.
- The percentage composition of X,Y and Z is always the same thus these can be considered the pyrimidines.
- applying Chargaff's rule to these bases:
R + S + T = X + Y + Z
= 1:1
Thus, the nucleic acid will contain six base pairs where bonds are formed between RX, SY and TZ.

ecosystem, Biome, biosphere, idk where habitat goes sorry
The correct answer is Batesian. Animals that advertise their poisonous or dangerous qualities use a defense is called Batesian mimicry. Batesian is basically a mimicry form that a harmless species evolved into some warning for a harmful one directly on the predators.
