Answer:

Genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift can also be referred to allelic drift. This can be caused as a result of various reasons.

Let's take for instance in humans, a large population of black women in region A migrating to a white dominated region B. There is a high chance of these black women getting married to the white men in region B, and hence give birth to children with diverse allelic frequencies; over time these children born, continue to reproduce and might lead to very few totally white people.

What would explain the change in the size of a gummy bear after it is placed in regular water?
salantis [7]

Answer:

The change in size of a gummy bear when placed in water is due to the presence of gelatin in the gummy bears.

Explanation:

Most of the gummy candies, like the gummy bears are made up of gelatin. To make the gummy bears, water and gelatin are mixed and heated. Then, this mixture is allowed to cool. During cooling, the water evaporates leaving the gelatin in a chewy form.

When the gummy bear is placed in water, the water is absorbed by the gummy bear due to  osmosis. Hence, the gummy bears tend to increase in size.

Water is a hygroscopic substance i.e it tends to absorb water. So, this property of gelatin will enable it to absorb water and increase in size.

What does divine creation mean? did charles darwin agree with this idea?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The term creationism most often refers to belief in special creation; the claim that the universe and lifeforms were created as they exist today by divine action, and On the Origin of Species reflects theological views. Though he thought of religion as a tribal survival strategy, Darwin still believed that God was the ultimate lawgiver, and later recollected that at the time he was convinced of the existence of God as a First Cause and deserved to be called a theist.
