Answer:

Homeostasis

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to maintaining the constant internal body conditions and mostly use the feedback loops to counteract any deviations from the narrow physiological range of several variants such as body temperature, blood glucose levels, etc.

For example, the human body maintains the internal body temperature around 37 degrees Celsius irrespective of the temperature of the surroundings.

When the body temperature rises above the standard range, the secretion of sweat and its evaporation to create the cooling effect is one of the several mechanisms that serve to lower down the body temperature.

Likewise, when the body temperature falls below the normal physiological range, increased heat production and prevention of heat loss are triggered by hypothalamus via autonomic nerve system to increase the body temperature again.

Which of these best describes genetic drift? A) The movement of alleles between population B) Random fluctuations in the gene fr
exis [7]
The correct answer is B.
Genetic drift is one of the four evolutionary mechanisms. It changes the frequency by chance, aka at random.
For example. if you have 100 frogs in the population, 20 red, 20 green and 60 yellow, not all of the alleles are going to be passed down to the next generation because a portion of the population can be affected by a random event such as the flood. So, if the flood accidentally kills 20 red frogs, none of the offspring are going to be red by chance.
