This is an example of primary succession. It cannot be secondary succession because the area is uninhabited, preexisting life is a key factor for secondary succession.

Answer:
The options
a. New combinations of genes yielding genotypes of greater fitness
b. Few heterozygotes because of underdominance
c. Frequency-dependent selection, leading to fluctuations in fitness
d. Heterozygotes with greater fitness, owing to overdominance
e. A random assortment of genotypes because of genetic drift
The CORRECT ANSWER IS b.
b. Few heterozygotes because of under dominance
Explanation:
In genetics, underdominance (at times called "negative overdominance") is the opposite of overdominance.
It is the selection against the heterozygote, that leads to disruptive selection and divergent genotypes. It occurs in cases of inferior and reduced fitness (As in our case study, it is the different chromosomal fusions and inversions)
of the heterozygotic genotype to the dominant or recessive homozygotic genotype. It is unstable as it causes fixation of either allele.
Another example is the African butterfly species Pseudacraea eurytus, which makes use of Batesian mimicry to avoid predation. This species carries two alleles that gives a coloration that is alike to a different local butterfly species that is harmful to its predator. The butterflies who are heterozygous for this trait are observed to be intermediate in coloration and thus encounter an higher risk of predation and a decrease in the total fitness.
<em>A placental mammal develops before its body systems can function independently;</em>
A. Inside it's mothers body
<u>Mammals don't come from eggs, and the term placental mammal means it has a placenta. It comes out when our mothers deliver. A marsupial mammal forms in a pouch, so the answer is inside it's mothers body </u>
The answer is Mid-Ocean Ridge.
The high spots in the newly formed seafloor are called Mid-Ocean Ridge. It refers to the series of high spots and depression which are formed on each side of the growing seafloor area. In short, it is an underwater mountain system formed by plate tectonics. It typically have valleys known as rift.
