The correct option is (D) Nucleotide variability and average heterozygosity

The higher the proportion of loci that are "fixed" in a population, the lower are that population's nucleotide variability and average heterozygosity.

<h3>What does it indicate when a gene in a population is fixed?</h3>
  • In population genetics, fixation is the transformation of a gene pool from one in which at least two alleles of a certain gene exist in a given population to one in which only one allele persists.
  • Any allele must eventually be lost entirely from the population or fixed (permanently established at 100% frequency in the population) in the absence of mutation or the heterozygote advantage.
  • Selection coefficients and random variations in allelic proportions determine whether a gene will ultimately be lost or fixed. Fixation may relate to a specific nucleotide location in the DNA chain or a gene in general (locus).

vitfil [10]

Answer: A) A and B

Explanation: A woman with type AB blood will have a genotype IAIB while a man with type O blood will have a genotype ii. A cross between the two of them will produce four offsprings: 2 IAi and 2IBi. IAi is type A blood while IBi is type B blood. Therefore the possible blood types of their children are type A and B.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, increase the concentration of the enzyme.

Explanation:

Biological molecules or proteins that enhance the rate of a chemical reaction taking place within the cell are known as enzymes. These proteins play an essential part in the proper functioning of the body, as they help in the process of metabolism and digestion.  

In the given case, if the enzyme gets saturated with the substrate, and is working at optimum pH and temperature, then to enhance the rate of the reaction the only thing that can be done is to enhance the concentration of the enzyme. However, further stimulation of some of the enzymes can be done with the addition of allosteric activators in the reaction, otherwise, enhancing the concentration of the enzyme is the only way.
