#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
One thousand independent populations of Drosophila are established with 25 individuals in each population, of which, one individual is of Aa genotype and the other nine are of AA genotype. If random genetic drift is the only mechanism acting on these populations, then, after a large number of generations, the expected number of populations fixed for the "a" allele is

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
Fish, penguin and Dolphin are independently evolved similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments or ecological niches.
A. On a molecular level, this can happen due to random mutation in unrelated taxon to adaptive changes
B. This is the example of divergent evolution, occurred due to similar group of organisms inhabiting different environments
C. Similar phenotype are produced by identical change in orthologous gene
D. This is the example of convergent evolution, occurred due to similar group of organisms inhabiting different environments
Which of the following is the correct combination?
