Answer:

(A) speciation.

Explanation:

Shrinking of water bodies and development of deserts since the Pleistocene ice age produced new vacant niches that could be inhabited by organisms such as fishes. Production of new isolated streams, ponds, and springs allowed the fishes to occupy these new water bodies. Accumulation of genetic variations to become adapted to their new habitat resulted in the evolution of several new species of fishes with many different genetic traits. This represents speciation due to geographical isolation.

Genetic disorders can result when sister chromatids fail to separate properly
worty [1.4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Genetic disorder that can result when sister chromatids fail to separate properly is likely to occur in meta-phase (m-phase) because in mitosis during m-phase there is separation of DNA to two equal halves.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Genetic disorder is the problem that is caused by the abnormal activities in gene.
  • This is also called mutation which may cause due to error during replication of DNA and also due to some environmental factors such as radiation exposure, smokes.
  • So, during meta-phase, genes might not separate and genetic disorder might happen.
