Answer: B. They are both reactions of a substance with oxygen

Explanation: Burning is oxidation of a substance in the presence of oxygen. Example: Burning of natural gas which mainly consists of methane is an example of a chemical reaction in methane is burnt in the presence of oxygen and is transformed into carbon dioxide, water vapor and ash.

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

Rusting is the oxidation of iron in the presence of air and water to lead to formation of hydrated ferric oxide called as rust.

Fe+O_2+H_2O\rightarrow Fe_2O_3.xH_2O

Consider the following three populations of birds. Assume HW equilibrium. With these birds red coloring is recessive, while brow
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population I

Explanation:

Population I -

Total population - 670

Brown birds - 603

Red birds - 67

Population II

Total population - 100

Brown birds - 90

Red birds - 10

Population III

Total population - 30

Brown birds - 27

Red birds - 3

Frequency of red birds in population I

\frac{67}{670} = 0.1

Frequency of red birds in population II

\frac{10}{90} = 0.11

Frequency of red birds in population III

\frac{3}{30} = 0.1

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II and it will be equal to \sqrt{0.11} = 0.33 as compared to 0.31 in case of population I and III

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect because of smaller population size

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population that has highest  brown individual , i.e population I
