What effect does stabilizing selection have on variation in a population.

Biology
1 answer:
blondinia [14]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

Stabilizing selection results in a decrease of a population 's genetic variance when natural selection favors an average phenotype and selects against extreme variations. In directional selection, a population's genetic variance shifts toward a new phenotype when exposed to environmental changes.

Explanation:

I don't bite, don't worry

Explain how nondisjunction can lead to aneuploidies
nirvana33 [79]
In nondisjunction, if members of a pair of homologous chromosomes do not move apart during meiosis I or sister chromatids fail to separate during meiosis II, this means one gamete receives 2 of the same kind of chromosome and i<span>f either one of these abnormal gametes unites with a normal one at fertilization, the zygote will also have an abnormal number of particular chromosomes; which is known as an aneuploidy.</span>

How are the products represented in the chemical equation for photosynthesis? O2 + 6CO2 C6H12O6 + 6H2O 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2
meriva

Answer:

chemical reaction:-

12H20 + 6CO2 + light =====> C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2

the above reaction shows that if we combine water,carbon dioxide and sunlight ,the resultant products will be glucose ,water and oxygen .

The plant converts the carbon dioxide into energy and oxygen by different steps that include

  1. absorption of light
  2. conversion of NADP into NADPH+
  3. conversion of ADP into ATP
  4. formation of carbohydrates from CO2  !

Why would a ecosystem that had a high species diversity be more productive and effective?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

the higher the diversity, the higher the populations of all the

photosynthetic organisms

Explanation:

Diversity in plant allows random mating also known as panmixia. It allows plant have equal chances of being mated too by any among them creating variations in the population. It leads to less fixed gene, reduce genetic drift leading to an increases population as some lethal gene may be lost due to recombination of gene among individual plant.

Where there is no diversity some gene becomes fixed leading to perpetuation of some traits that may be harmful in a population but diversity allows for the generation of new gene and allele frequency within a population.
