Two populations of mice living in the same forest are separated by a large water-filled ditch. After a rainstorm, flooding brings several mice from one population to the other population. When the mice from the first population reproduce with members of the second population, which of the following would likely occur? A. All of the offspring will die as a result of reproductive mutations
B. The offspring will be forced to leave the second population
C. The offspring will be genetically identical to their parent from the first population
D. The offspring in the second population will have greater genetic variety

The phylogenetic tree illustrates the relationship between humans and our closest living relatives. the tree was based on biochemical comparisons, including dna and amino acid sequences. according to the biomolecular data, we could infer that a) the four organisms do not have a common ancestor. b) humans are more closely related to chimps than any other apes. c) chimps are more closely related to gorillas than they are to humans. eliminate d) there is no evidence if any relationship between the four branches on the tree.

What is the role of dna ligase in the elongation of the lagging strand during dna replication?

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? question 15 options: as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.
