Population extinction is a natural occurrence, but because the pace of extinction on a global scale is increasing, understanding extinction is crucial for conservation. To evaluate proposed extinction processes, the rate of extinction in experimental populations of brine shrimp (Artemia franciscana) was evaluated. As was predicted, the chance of extinction was decreased by a larger initial population, a larger maximum population size supported by the environment, and less change in environmental variables. However, contrary to popular belief, maximum population size and environmental variation were more significant than initial population size. Unexpectedly, the importance of deterministic population oscillations brought on by inborn nonlinear dynamics and overcrowding was equal to or greater than that of the assumed processes.

<h3>What is extinction?</h3>

Extinction happens when species become endangered due to environmental factors such habitat loss, climate change, natural disasters, human overuse, and pollution, or because of evolutionary changes in its constituent parts.

When would a testcross be done?
vova2212 [387]
<span>Additional facts:
A test cross between an organism whose genotype for a certain trait is unknown and an organism that is homozygous recessive for that trait so the unknown genotype can be determined from that of the offspring.
Answer:
You'd use it when you wish to see if the one that you think is a homozygous dominant is a purebred, because if you did get a recessive offspring then it proves that the animal is a heterozygous and not a purebred.</span>

Xelga [282]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The question that can be answered with the F2 cross would be <u>if the yellow flower color is dominant over the red flower color in the species</u>. In other words, <u>whether the inheritance of flower color follows a simple Mendelian inheritance or otherwise can be answered.</u>

<em>Assuming that the inheritance of the flower color follows the Mendelian pattern, the red flower trait would re-emerge among the F2 offspring and the ratio of yellow to red flower offspring would approximately be equal to</em><em> 3:1.</em><em> Otherwise, a more complex pattern of inheritance would be involved.</em>
