The tightness with which a chemical attaches to a binding site is termed its affinity for that site, while the effectiveness of the binding chemical is termed its efficacy.

Affinity quantifies how well a medication binds to a receptor (or how well it "fits the lock").

The ability of a drug-bound receptor to induce a response (or "turn the key") is referred to as efficacy.

While antagonists only have affinity for the receptors and no (zero) effectiveness, agonists have both affinities and efficacy for the receptor.

Effectiveness governs what transpires after the medication has been attached to the receptor through affinity.

The affinity (potency) and/or efficacy of different medicines that bind to the same receptor and elicit the same type of response will often vary from one another.

Answer:

Genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift can also be referred to as allelic drift, it refers to the variation in allelic frequencies within a particular population over a period of time. It can also be referred to as the random fluctuations in the number of genotypes within a population. Genetic drift is not influenced by the environment and is usually more pronounced in a small population of organisms.

For example, a population of birds can consist of green feathers and blue feathers with the green feathers as the dominant allele, but as a result of random fluctuations, the offspring may all be with green feathers and hence could eliminate or reduce the allele responsible for blue feathers over time.

A small family farm has 230 acres of farmland to grow corn . If each acre yields 63 bushels of corn and each bushel can be sold
SashulF [63]

Answer:

$130,410

Explanation:

According to this question, a small family farm has 230 acres of farmland to grow corn. Each acre yields 63 bushels of corn i.e 1 acre = 63 bushels of corn

Also, each bushel can be sold at $9.00 i.e. 1 bushel = $9.00

If 1 bushel = $9.00

63 bushels = 63 × 9 = $567

Since 63 bushels of corn = 1 acre, it means that $567 is made on one acre.

Hence, on 230 acres, 230 × 567 = $130,410 will be made on corn per year
