Answer: e. accumulation of deleterious mutations in asexual lineages.

Why do areas of lower pressure usually experience stormy weather
alina1380 [7]
The air begins to rise into the atmosphere. When air rises, it cools down and condenses into precipitation and clouds. This is why an approaching low pressure system means an increased chance for clouds, rain, or snow. It is called "low pressure" because as air rises, the air pressure is lower at the surface.
