Answer: The correct answer is-
Allopatric- option 2.
Sympatric - option 1.
Allopatric and sympatric are primarily the two major mechanisms for speciation ( formation of new species from an ancestral species).
In allopatric speciation, a population splits into two different species when it is isolated by physical or geographical barrier.
On the other hand, sympatric speciation occurs wihtin the same area. A population splits into two species that is becomes reproductively isolated when a change in the chromosome number occurs.
Thus, option first corresponds to sympatric whereas option second shows allopatric speciaton.
Answer:
Option (d).
Explanation:
Mutation may be defined as the sudden, heritable change in the nucleotide sequence of the organism. Mutation may occur due to the errors in DNA replication or may occurs due to the mutagens.
Joshua and Lederberg experiment explains that mutation is the non adaptive and random process that occur in the organism. He used the replica plating of E.coli and grows them on streptomycin drug. The bacteria was grown on the the primary plate and they are transferred to the secondary plate with streptomycin drug in the growth environment. The resistant strain of bacteria grows in the streptomycin environment.The pattern of bacteria growth on the plate explained that mutation occurs randomly and it is a non adaptive process.
Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
Kingdom is the largest division that a group of organisms can belong to, for example “animal” or “plant” is a kingdom. In order: kingdom, class, genus, species.
Example of:
Class- Mammals would be a class of the kingdom “animal”
Genus- Homo would be a genus of “mammal”
Species- Homo Sapiens
Answer and Explanation:
There are various processes that are part of the water cycle:
- Precipitation: any kind of product that falls from the clouds
- Condensation: when a gas turns into a liquid
- Evaporation: when a liquid turns into a gas
- Transpiration: the evaporation of water from plants' leaves
- Runoff: the water that drains down from a source

(1) All the genotypes are as follows: AABB, AaBB, AABb, AaBb, aaBB, aaBb, AAbb, Aabb, aabb.
(2) Assuming that Aa is dominant and Bb is recessive, there will be 9 phenotypes with both A and B allele dominant (i.e. AaBb, AABb); there will be 3 phenotypes with just the A allele dominant (i.e. Aabb, AAbb); there will be 3 phenotypes with just the B allele dominant (i.e. aaBb, aaBB); and there will be 1 phenotype with both alleles recessive (i.e. aabb). The phenotypic ratio in this case is 9:3:3:1.
(3) The probability of producing an offspring with the aabb genotype is 1/16 or 6%.
