• B)center at (3, -3)transverse axis is parallel to x-axis vertices at (-1, -3)and (7, -3)
• C)center at (-3, 3)transverse axis is parallel to y-axis vertices at (-3, -1)and (-3, 7), Asymptotes of y + 3 = - 4(x - 3)and y + 3 = 4(x - 3)
• D)center at (-3, 3)transverse axis is parallel to x-axis vertices at (-4, 3)and (-2, 3)foci at Asymptotes of y - 3 = - 4(x + 3)and y - 3 = 4(x + 3)

Definitions:

Balanced Polymorphism

A situation in which two or more alleles of a gene persist in a population because the survival advantage or disadvantage of each balances out.

Heterozygote Advantage

The phenomenon where individuals with two different alleles for a particular trait have a greater fitness than those with two identical alleles.

Frequency-Dependent Selection

A process of evolution whereby the success and reproductive viability of a genotype or phenotype is influenced by its commonness or rarity in comparison to other genotypes or phenotypes within the same population.

Genetic Drift

A mechanism of evolution that results in random changes in the allele frequencies of a population, often having a larger effect in small populations.
