In which regions of the human genome would you expect to find the most genetic diversity and why?
A) There is no meaningful difference between coding and non- coding regions in terms of genetic diversity.
B) In non- coding regions, because there is selective pressure to alter non- coding sequence.
C) In coding regions, because there is selective pressure to alter amino acid sequence in proteins.
D) In non- coding regions, because there is less selective pressure to maintain non- coding nucleotide sequence.
E) In coding regions, because there is selective pressure to preserve amino acid sequence in proteins.
