Answer:

genetic variation

Explanation:

Genetic variation refers to the difference in genetic content of organisms within a population. The genetic makeup of living organisms are made up of GENES, which exists in contrasting pairs called ALLELES. Each allele is responsible for variation in traits exhibited by the organisms. Differences in the allelic content of organisms of the same species leading to the display of varying phenotypic characteristics is referred to as GENETIC VARIATION.

This is the case in the example given in which four birds in a population possess a range of wing and feather colors i.e light brown feathers with darker wings, dark feathers with lighter wings, medium brown feathers with light wings, and medium brown feathers with very dark wings, all resulting from a variation in their genetic content. Hence, this is an example of GENETIC VARIATION.

What is the role of your kidneys in compensating for low levels of oxygen
TEA [102]

Explanation:

When there are low oxygen levels in blood, the blood pH tends to lower. This is because there is an increased level of carbon dioxide in the blood that is converted to carbonic acid by carbonic anhydrase. When carbon acid dissociates, into H⁺ and HCO₃⁻ . The H⁺ influences the increase in acidity of the blood.   The kidneys will excrete most of the H⁺ and retain most of the HCO₃⁻ to help maintain the right blood pH. However, most of blood pH homeostasis is maintained largely by the lungs.

What is the importance of reducing sugars and non reducing sugars<br>​
Gennadij [26K]
The reducing sugars are mainly monosaccharides where all polysaccharides are non-reducing sugars. The reducing sugar can reduce the capric ions of the Fehling or the Benedict solution into the cuprous ions whereas, the reduction of cupric ions into the cuprous ions is not achieved in the non-reducing sugars.
