Answer:
c. They may evolve into two separate species as a result of disruptive selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection wherein some extreme change in the surroundings favor two distinct phenotypes while trimming off the mean. Here, the environmental conditions favor more than one phenotype. In the given example, disruptive selection would favor the light-colored lizards in the sandy region while the dark-colored would be favored in rocky regions due to their respective survival success.
With time, these two populations would accumulate more variations and reproductive isolation would not allow them to interbreed and thereby two distinct species of lizards would evolve.
The answer is; B
This type of inhibitors does not bind the active site of the enzyme hence does not compete with the substrate (hence its name non-competitive inhibitors). They bind the enzyme at another site and change its conformation. The substrate may still be able to bind the active site but the efficiency of catalysis can be drastically reduced threatening life. This type of inhibition cannot be cured by increasing substrate levels.
It would be the closest as the massive glaciers in that area melted and retreated. Freed from the enormous weight of ice, the land level gradually rose over several thousand years and the waters simply drained off into the ocean, leaving what is now Lake Champlain and a few river valleys.
I think it’s water not positive tho
