The statement 'Karina says the change in the guppy population was caused by a mutation' is correct. Mutations change the frequency of phenotypic traits in a population across generations.

<h3>What is evolution?</h3>

The word 'evolution' refers to descendence with modification which especially happens due to the process of natural selection.

The mutations in the genetic material serve as raw material for natural selection and consequently for evolution.

In this case, Karina must be right because the change in the frequency of the phenotype can be caused by the emergence of beneficial mutations in individuals that live in a given environment.

These types of mutations (beneficial mutations) can fix and increase their frequency across generations.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Aa, bb

Explanation:

Recall that this question calls our attention to the theory of evolution as postulated by Charles Darwin. Species that are well adapted to their environment are more likely to survive, reproduce and pass on these favourable characteristics to their offspring.

In this case, the coral reefs are pink and pink Isopod species with small bodies are likely to escape the predators. Hence the genetic combination Aa(pink body) and bb(small body) are more likely to survive and reproduce.

In  the  gene  pool   of  population   with   350   individuals  a   fixed  allele  has   a   frequency   of   1(one).  Fixed  alleles    is  the  alleles  that  is  the  only  variant  that  exist  for  that    gene  in  all  population.The  frequency  of   gene   pool  with  a  population  of   350   is  = 1  since  the    frequency   of    total  alleles  =1

What is the role of the effector in a feedback loop?
Kisachek [45]
The receptor monitors the set point for a variable in the environment. If there is a a stimulus, the receptor signals the control center to produce an effector that will alter the environment and bring it <span>to the set point.
Hence,the right answer is :
</span><span>c. it is the respone to a stimulus</span>
