Answer:
sympatric speciation
Explanation:
Species of fruit fly larvae in the genus Rhagoletis each feed on a particular kind of fruit. Rhagoletis pomonella feeds on the small red fruit of the hawthorn tree. In 1865, farmers in the Hudson River valley found that R. pomonella flies had begun attacking their apples and then spread to apple orchards in adjacent areas of Massachusetts and Connecticut. These now separate varieties of flies, the apple and haw flies, usually don't interbreed with each other because their periods of mating coincide with the different ripening times of apples and hawthorn fruit. Each variety is becoming specialized to feed and reproduce in its own particular microhabitat and may be transitioning to separate species.If the apple and haw flies become distinct enough to be separate species, their evolution is an example of sympatric speciation
Natural Selection proposes that organisms that are better adapted to their environment are able to survive and reproduce.
Even though these frogs are the same species, their shades of green is what helps them to survive in their habitat. In this case, frogs with a lighter shade of green are able to be seen by predators easier, whereas frogs with darker shades are able to blend in (camouflage) more with their surroundings. After a period of time, due to them being easily seen, lighter-shaded green frogs will die off.
To anseer your question, natural selection would have a gradual affect on the frequency of the alleles. Lighter-green allele frequencies would eventually cut off, and darker-green allele frequencies will increase.
Hopefully the following image will help:
As seen in the image, (please forgive the quality, as I had drawn this on some random kids drawing site on the internet...) you can see the affects of natural selection on the allele frequencies. The brighter-green shades gradually decrease over time, as the darker shades increase.
Hope you find this helpful.
Species with more likely homologous structures share a common ancestor.
- D. share a common ancestor.
<h3>What are example homologous structures?</h3>
The most correct definition for homology would be: They are structures of individuals, of different species or not, that were inherited from a common ancestor. The human arm is homologous to the horse's front leg. The bat's wing is homologous to the whale fin.
With this information, we can conclude that homologous have same embryological origin of structures from different organisms, and these structures may or may not have the same function

C.Xylem
Xylem is where the nutrients and water gets transported upward
B) is the correct answer. The flu virus does not have the same genetic makeup each year as with each individual it infects its rapidly mutating.
