Which of the following scenarios will decrease the genetic variation of a population?

9 answers

1. a population of birds suddenly decrease their frequency of sexual reproduction
2. meiosis
3. does not impact evolution
4. penguins reproduce sexually, producing offspring that look different from one another
5. an old growth forest with trees that are over 1,500 years old
lol is 100% correct for the genetic variation and evolution quick check in biology
lol is 100% correct!
100%, Thanks to lol.
LOL IS RIGHT<3
lol is still correct :D <3
UNIT 7 Biological Evolution
LESSON 2 Genetic Variation and Evolution

1. a population of birds suddenly decreases their frequency of sexual reproduction
2. meiosis
3. does not impact the evolution
4. penguins reproduce sexually, producing offspring that look different from one another
5. an old-growth forest with trees that are over 1,500 years old
100% correct I promise
bruh number one lol

Which of the following scenarios will decrease the genetic variation of a population?
> a population of birds suddenly decrease their frequency of sexual reproduction

Two of the main drivers of genetic variation are mutations and genetic recombination. During which process can these two events occur?(1 point)
> meiosis

If a fish is able to breathe outside of water but does not reproduce, that trait (1 point)
> does not impact evolution

In which of the following scenarios would evolution by natural selection take place? (1 point)
> Penguins reproduce sexually, producing offspring that look different from one another

Which type of environment would tend to reduce genetic variation in a population because of evolution by natural selection? (1 point)
> an old growth forest with trees that are over 1,500 years old

100% :)
