Your answer would be B. individuals moving into a population. 

Imagine you live in a small village that is remote and hasn't had much contact with people from different geographical areas or other continents even. Your community will have a certain gene pool as each individual has certain genes and when the genes of every person are taken into account this leaves us with certain genes that perhaps aren't found somewhere else. Suddenly, there is a big influx of another group of people coming from one particular region with a somewhat different gene pool to this community.

After some time, these people will reproduce and create new children who will have a more diverse gene pool (if the people from the old and new community would make babies for example). This is how the gene pools would get expanded and also gene flow would occur.

Which of the following usually has the most adverse effect on an individual?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

deletion of a chromosome.

Explanation:

Changes usually occur in the nuclear material (chromosomes) of a cell. These changes are called MUTATION. A mutation, depending on how it occurs, consists of different types. Mutation can result into deletion of a chromosome or addition of a chromosome.

Deletion mutation is the removal of a part of the chromosome segment or chromosome while Insertion mutation is the addition of a part of the chromosome segment to the original chromosome. Both insertion and deletion can be detrimental to the organism as it can lead to the serious genetic disorders, however, deletion of a chromosome has the most adverse effect.

During deletion mutation, information encoded in a particular chromosome is lost completely which can make the resulting individual deficient of certain traits that makes him/her normal but in Insertion mutation, a different chromosome is added which can sometimes be beneficial to the resulting organism e.g can confer resistance to certain unfavorable condition.

Which measurement do geologists use to find the absolute age of once-living things?
juin [17]

Answer:

Radiocarbon dating

Explanation:

Radiocarbon dating measures radioactive isotopes in once-living organic material instead of rock, using the decay of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14. Because of the fairly fast decay rate of carbon-14, it can only be used on material up to about 60,000 years old.
