Option B, third nucleotide position
It is told that this protein is conserved and shows similar functions in different organisms. Although it shows variation at a place in the organism. It is possible only when difference present at third nucleotide base. This lead to wobbling ( different codon code for similar amino acid, difference is present at 3 rd base of codon ) and the codon still cide for same amino acid. In this case although variation us present but still it code for similar protein.

Consider an important protein like beta-galactosidase, which breaks down lactose. Many bacterial species have beta-galactosidase. But that doesn't mean that the amino acid sequence of beta- galactosidase in all those bacterial species is exactly the same. Far from it. As bacteria diversified into different species over evolutionary time, beta-galactosidase encoded in the genomes of the bacteria also diversified. However, we can assume that even though beta-galactosidase diversified, it was under pressure to maintain structure and function, because the reaction it...

INTRODUCTION
New mutations that arise on the X chromosome can have different
likelihoods of becoming fixed in the population than their
autosomal counterparts. This differential likelihood arises because
the effect of a recessive mutation on an autosome is only expressed
in homozygotes, whereas the effect of a similar recessive mutation
that arises on the X chromosome in a male is fully expressed. Thus,
advantageous recessive mutations are more likely to become fixed if
they are on the X chromosome than...

2. A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristles that Drosophila flies have, giving rise to a “hairless” phenotype. In the homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assorting dominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in the presence of H, in which case a single dose of S suppresses the hairless phenotype, thus restoring the "hairy" phenotype. However, S also is lethal in the homozygous (S/S) condition. What ratio of hairy to hairless flies...

1a) Suppose a population of guppies was infected with a
parasite. In that population a mutation results in a parasite
resistant genotype that spreads through the population through
natural selection. A subsequent mutation in the parasite results in
a genotype that is unaffected by the newly evolved resistant guppy
genotype. What is the name of the hypothesis that explains this
host parasite “arms race”.?
