Answer:
Inbreeding and greater chance of passing deletereous mutations through generations
Explanation:
There are several reasons why small populations are more prone to genetic diseases. One of them is that in small populations there tends to be more inbreeding
, that is breeding between individuals are closely related. Inbreeding increase the chances of offspring being affected by deletereus homozygous genotypes.
On the other hand, the acquisition of a deleterious mutation in a small population is more likely to be spread in that small population than in a large population.
Phylogeny
uses communal ancestry to group organisms and further nest them into bigger and
bigger groups. This is also a study of evolutionary relationships among
organisms. Visible characteristics such as anatomical and behavioral traits, as
well as biochemical (enzymes, proteins, pigments, etc.) and genetic traits
(nucleotide sequences) that need more modern techniques to detect.
I think its false because gas exchange can happen in blood also
