Levodopa has a relatively short half-life and interruption of administration of the drug can result in abrupt loss of therapeutic effect within 6 to 12 hours resulting in skeletal muscle rigidity which can interfere with ventilation. Therefore, it is recommended that levodopa be continued as prescribed. Hines RL, Marschall KE. Stoeltings Anesthesia & Co-Existing Diseases. 7th ed.

1) gene flow

- it is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.

-a zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.

2) natural selection

- a mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.

-competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.

3) mutation

- permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of dna ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.

-the dna of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.

4) genetic drift - it is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.    

-a grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.

explanation:

the darker peppered moth species were favored due to the fact that the industrial revolution had made all the nearby trees a darker color instead of white.
