The corpus callosum is a part of brain that lies above the thalamus and connects the two hemispheres of the brain. It maintain link of communication between two of them. Its function is to transfer neural messages in between right hemisphere and left hemisphere. The severed corpus callosum will act as having two brains in one body. Each part of the hemisphere will have its own perception, speech and thought. There is a possibility that the individual wears a pant due to the signals from one hemisphere and the other hemisphere of brain signals to down the pant. There is a lack of coordination in the functions performed if corpus callosum is severed.

The procedure involves severing the corpus callosum, the main bond between the brain's left and right hemispheres. After a split-brain surgery the two hemispheres do not exchange information as efficiently as before.

Answer:

O founder's effect

Explanation:

A founder effect can be defined as the loss of genetic variation when a new population is established from a few individuals. This process is known to increase the frequency of particular gene variants (alleles) at different loci when they are selectively neutral (or nearly neutral), and thereby such genes are fixed by genetic drift (i.e., through the random sampling of founder individuals). Interestingly, it has been discovered that the majority of South American and Central American Indians are nearly exclusively in the O blood group, which has been further associated with random genetic drift and a founder effect.

The Earth turns on its axis every day; it orbits the sun, just like all the other planets in our Solar System. You can cross out D and A, obviously. Which leaves us with answers B and C. Now, C says that the Earth turns clockwise, which is false; when viewed from space, they determined it turned counter-clockwise, which leaves us with B. Hope this helped
