Two competing hypotheses to account for the increase in the number of Hox genes from the last common ancestor of bilaterians to
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The duplication of a cluster of four Hox genes is equally likely as the duplication of a single Hox gene.

Explanation:

This comes from the definition of the parsimony principle, which is the action of choosing the simplest scientific explanation fitting the given evidence, meaning that all other elements are equal when evaluating the hypothesis. In biology the best hypothesis is the one that requires the fewest evolutionary changes.

Since three independent duplications of an individual Hox gene is in  evolutionary terms, more complex than a single duplication or a cluster, then that hypothesis would be the most parsimonious.

the galapagos tortoise are biodiverse. tortoises in a more barren area have a flat shell and long neck to help grasp the sparse
natima [27]

Answer:

<em>This is an example of natural selection (adaptation).</em>

Explanation:

Natural selection tends to favor those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment.

As tortoises having flat shell and long neck were better adapted to live in barren area, hence through natural selection those organisms were favored in such an ecosystem.

As tortoises that lived on the vegetative lands were more adapted to live in such an ecosystem, hence through natural ecosystem these organisms were favored and increased in numbers.
