The carrying capacity of a biological organism in the surrounding refers to the maximum size of the population of the organism that the environment can maintain indeterminately, given the habitat, food, water, and other essential requirements in the environment.
When a deep water island of marine debris is situated directly in the migratory path of a pod of humpback whales, then the carrying capacity for the region would be negotiated and the populations of whale will suffer.
Answer:
Horizontal gene transfer
Explanation:
Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer is when an organisms of different species can acquire a gene from a different one. This process is well understood in bacteria and is responsible for the appearence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Bacteria can take DNA fragments through a process known as transformation, but this is less common in eukaryotes. Gene transfer agents like viruses could carry the gene from one specimen to the other. Another way could be Horizontal transposon transfer but the exact mechanisms behind it are still under research.
Since N is the number of pairs of chromosomes, and the organism has 6 pairs of these chromosomes, N = 6.
The number of genetically different gametes for an organism is equal to 2N, so for the organism, since N = 6, the number of genetically different gametes is 2(6) or 12.
