Viviparity is considered to be more evolved because:
1. the young ones are left on their own
2. the young ones are protected by a thick shell
3. the young ones are protected inside the mother's body and are looked after they are born leading to more chances of survival
4. the embryo takes a long time to develop

3. Struggle for existence
4. Discontinuous variations
Which one of the following correctly describes the homologous structures?
1. Organs with anatomical similarities, but performing different functions.
2, Organs with anatomical dissimilarities, but performing same functions.
3. Organs that have no functions now, but had an important function in ancestors.

If a random mating population is in equilibrium, which of the following brings about a change in gene frequency in a non-directional manner?
1. Mutations
2. Random drift
3. Selection
4. Migration
Random genetic drift in a population probably results from
1. highly genetically variable individuals.
2. inbreeding within this population
3. constant low mutation rate
4. large population size
In recent years, DNA sequences (nucleotide sequence) of mtDNA and Y chromosomes were considered for the study of human evolution, because
1. they are small, and therefore, easy to study
2. they are uniparental in origin and do not take part in recombination
3. their structure is known in greater detail.
4. they can be studied from the samples of fossil remains.
