If a trait Aexists in 10% of a population of an asexually reproducing species and trait B exists in 60% of the same population, which trait is likely to have arisen earlier?​

Answer 1

Therefore, if a trait A exists in 10% of a population of an asexually reproducing species and a trait B exists in 60% of the same population, trait B is likely to have arisen earlier because this trait has been replicating and existing in a higher percentage of the population as compared to trait A.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Trait B is likely to have arisen earlier as it exists in 60% of population. The variations produced in asexually reproducing species are due to inaccuracies in DNA copying due to environmental factors and variations inherited from one generation to another get accumulated in a subsequent generation.
