Answer:

B. reduces the amount of water vapor

Explanation:

Tropical rainforests is an area of vegetation comprising of predominantly trees. Trees play a major part in sustaining the environment, and hence, the destruction of trees will result in certain negative effects or impacts on the environment.

One of the effects of destroying rainforests according to the options in the question, is the reduction in the amount of water vapor. Trees in rainforests contribute to the addition of water vapor to the atmosphere via transpiration (loss of water through their stomata). Hence, destruction of tropical rain forests will reduce the amount of water vapor.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect

The frequency of the brown allele will least likely be altered in the population I

Explanation:

Population I -

Total population - $670$

Brown birds - $603$

Red birds - $67$

Population II

Total population - $100$

Brown birds - $90$

Red birds - $10$

Population III

Total population - $30$

Brown birds - $27$

Red birds - $3$

Frequency of red birds in population I

$\frac{67}{670} = 0.1$

Frequency of red birds in population II

$\frac{10}{90} = 0.11$

Frequency of red birds in population III

$\frac{3}{30} = 0.1$

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II and it will be equal to $\sqrt{0.11} = 0.33$ as compared to $0.31$ in case of population I and III

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect because of smaller population size

The frequency of the brown allele will least likely be altered in the population that has highest brown individual , i.e population I
