A) the fossil record of these two species B) a geological event that separated the species at a particular time C) the function of each of these regions of DNA D) the time of divergence of closely related species
Geneticists designate heritability as "narrow" or "broad" to account for the fact that
A) genes contribute to different degrees. Typically, recessive alleles are rare and can have a large impact and dominant alleles tend to be common with minor but additive effects. B) genes contribute to different degrees. Typically, dominant alleles are rare and have a small impact and recessive alleles tend to be common, each with major effects. C) genes contribute to different degrees. Typically, dominant alleles are rare and can have a large impact and recessive alleles tend to be common with minor but additive effects. D) dominant and recessive alleles have equal impact, but dominant alleles are more common than recessive alleles.
