QUESTION 1 Tigers are much more complex organisms than the single-celled Amoeba dubia, however tigers have a genome composed of 2.44 Gigabases (Gb) and Amoeba dubia has a genome composed of 670 Gb. This is a good example of C-value paradox O pleiotropy G-value paradox genetic determinism purifying selection

Evolutionary adaptations

Evolutionary adaptation is the process through which organisms adapt or adjust to their surroundings to increase the chances of survival, mating, and reproduction. An organism's behavior, physiology, and structure are adjusted or changed to make it more suited to its environment.
