<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Several flood mitigation techniques can be used by federal governments. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Diversion of flood water and its storage is a method that can be used for flood mitigation.</em> Floodwaters can be diverted to canals, reservoirs, floodplains etc.

Thus water can be kept out of inhabited areas. Federal governments can enact legislation to establish floodwater and storage.  <em>Restoration of streams and floodplains is another method that can be used to mitigate floods. </em>

These methods can prevent bank erosion and reduce the severity of floods. Legislation's regarding the restoration can be passed by federal states.

<em>Low impact development and green infrastructure store water and thus helps preventing floods. This is another method to mitigate floods.  </em>

Evolution acts upon the population of organisms and not on each individual organism
Marina86 [1]

Evolution can be defined as the process of changes in the genetic pool of a population over time. The process of natural selection operates the evolution of any population. Evolution acts upon a whole population instead upon on single individual. A single individual doesn't evolve, instead ratios of the genetic types within a population changes when it is evolving, and eventually, complete evolution occurs.

Hence, the given answer is 'true'.
