Q2. In which condition gene ratio remains constant in a species?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Gene ratio remains constant in species having random mating. Gene flow, mutation and sexual selection are the factors that change the gene ratio of the population.

Q8. The stage connecting meiosis I and meiosis II is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Q9. Two geographical regions, separated by high mountain ranges are
Answer : Option C
