Explanation / Answer

Answer= 38]Abnormally high concentration of Iridium have been found in rocks dating during the end of Cretaceous period.

B]Iridium

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------39] The following occurs with a synonymous mutation

B]the amino acid being coded for does not change.

explaination- Synonymous mutation is a change in the DNA sequence that codes for amino acids in a protein sequence ,but does not change the encoded amino acid,due to the redundancy of the genetic code.

it means that the protein product does not change.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

40] the biological species concept defines a species as a group of

B]Potentially interbreeding natural population that are reproductively isolated from other such groups.

Explaination-Biological species concept is most widely accepted species in terms of interbreeding.

Ernst mayr defined a species as ,"species are groups of  natural population that are reproductively isolated from other such groups."
