Answer: <u><em> Microevolution is defined as a change in allele frequencies in a population over time. Three mechanisms can cause allele frequencies to change: natural selection, genetic drift (chance events that alter allele frequencies), and gene flow (the transfer of alleles between populations).</em></u>

it is actually forests so a
Red blood cells will swell and burst. The
reason behind this is that red blood cells are okay when they are in
the plasma (the watery part of the blood) because the solutes in plasma
are so well balanced that plasma is rendered isotonic. An isotonic
solution is a type of solution that has the same salt concentration as
its surrounding environment and thus the substances around it e.g. cells
neither gain nor lose water. In the blood plasma, the red blood cells
neither lose nor gain water and so they remain intact.<span>However distilled
water is hypotonic (has less or no solutes) and therefore osmosis will
take place when red blood cell which have a higher solute concentration
are placed in it. Water molecules will leave the distilled water and
pass into the red blood cells through the semi-permeable membrane of the
cells in an attempt to equalize the difference in osmotic pressure on
either side of the membrane. In so doing, water will accumulate in the
cell which will then swell to capacity and ultimately burst.</span>
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The F2 offspring of a cross would follow the ratio of 9:3:3:1 only if the cross is a <u>dihybrid for two unlinked traits</u>.
There is nothing like a monohybrid cross for two traits. A cross involving two traits is a dihybrid cross. Hence, options a and b are out of the equation.
A dihybrid cross for two closely linked traits would produce F2 offspring in another ratio that is different from 9:3:3:1 depending on the linkage map.
<em>Hence, the correct option is</em><em> C</em><em>.</em>
