I think the 4 major types of vectors are plasmids, viral vectors, cosmids, and artificial chromosomes. The most commonly used vectors are plasmids.

Answer:
III-6
Explanation:
Obligate carriers, or obligate heterozygotes, are those individuals that may be unaffected clinically, but must possess a copy of the mutant gene. For autosomal recessive conditions, obligate carriers can be the offspring of a parental mating of two carriers (50% of offspring will also be carriers). They can also be produced by a parental mating of a carrier by an affected individual (50% of offspring will be carriers).
DNA analysis reveals that they had common ancestors which are not very far in the Cladogram. They are very similar animals and share very much characteristics

Directional selection is where one phenotype is favored, so an example would be "a population of madagascar hissing cockroaches suffers heavy predation from lizards. Because their heads are small, the lizards are unable to eat the very largest adult cockroaches, and instead prey upon small and medium sized adults, so as a result the large cockroaches are favored and live".
Meanwhile, disruptive selection is where both extreme phenotypes are favored, an example would be "a population of rabbits can have black fur, white fur or grey fur. This population of rabbits lives in an area of white rocks. When a local volcano erupts, black volcanic rock now dots the landscape amongst the white rocks. Now the black and white rabbits live longer because the black and white spots on the landscape camoflauge them. The two extreme phenotypes are being favored."
