1. Non random mating
                                    In genetic equilibrium individuals must mate at random. However, in many species, individuals select mates based on heritable traits, such as size, strength, or coloration, a practice known as sexual selection.

2. Small population size
                                        Genetic drift does not have major effects on large populations but can affect small populations. Thus evolutionary change due to genetic drift happens more easily in small populations.

<span>3. Immigration or Emigration
                                                 Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

4. Mutations
                   Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

5. Natural Selection
 if different genotypes have different fitness, genetic equilibrium will be disrupted, and evolution will occur.</span>

Describe the matrix of bone tissue in intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification
sattari [20]

Answer:

In intravenous ossification, bone develops directly from sheets of mesenchymal connective tissue. In endochondral ossification, bone develops by replacing hyaline cartilage. Activity in the epiphyseal plate enables bones to grow in length. Modeling allows bones to grow in diameter.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

D. Both lack membrane-bound organelles and are single-celled.

Explanation:

All prokaryotes are classified in two domains Archaea and Eubacteria as they differ in some characteristics. But as they both are prokaryotes there is some similarities between Archaea and Eubacteria that is they both are single celled and lack membrane-bound organelles.

They both reproduce asexually by binary fission but both are autotrophic and heterotrophic. They both are unable to survive in lack of oxygen. They both have circular DNA and not helical DNA.

Hence, the correct option is D.
