NEYT QUESTION

Answer 1

Microevolution includes evolution at the population and community level.

Answer 2

1 Embryo

2. Analogous

3. Embryology

4. Homologous

5. lineage

6. Macroevolution

7. Microevolution

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The embryo is the early and first stage of a multi-cellular organism.

2. Analogous structures will have superficial resemblance and similar function but the origin will be different( different ancestor).

3. Embryology is the branch biology which studies about the prenatal development of fertilization, gametes, and the development of embryo and fetus.

4. Homologous structures will have the same positioning and similarity in the chromosome structure with a common ancestor.

5. Lineage is the temporal series of populations, cells, organisms or genes connected with a line of descent from ancestor to descendant.

6. Macroevolution is the evolution of taxonomic groups where the evolution occurs above the species level.

7. In microevolution, the evolution will occur below the species level where the allele frequency will change with the species.
