The answer is stabilizing selection.
<span>Sickle-cell anemia is a recessive disorder caused by the presence of two recessive alleles "s", so genotype is "ss". This disorder is characterized by sickle hemoglobin. In an area with malaria, heterozygous individuals "Ss" (with one dominant allele and one recessive allele) have an advantage. These individuals will have both normal and sickle hemoglobin. But pathogen that causes malaria affect only normal hemoglobin, so heterozygous individuals will have half of the hemoglobin resistant to the pathogen and those individuals are resistant to malaria.</span>
Stabilizing selection favors heterozygotes Ss, disruptive selection favors dominant (SS) and recessive (ss) homozygotes, while directional selection favors dominant (SS) or recessive (ss) homozygote. Since in this example, people with genotype Ss (heterozygotes) are in advantage, then this is an example of stabilizing selection.
Answer:
something that you invent?
Explanation:
Herons are very large birds, and due to their intimidating size, they have very little predators. They have a varied diet and consume many different prey (fish, snakes, amphibians, and probably many other small animals). If the population of herons would decrease, the population of the other organisms living in the same environment would increase since they would have a greater chance at survival (since they are not being eaten by the herons)
Answer: The image formed by a plane mirror can only be the same size as that of the object.
Explanation :
A plane mirror consists of a highly reflecting surface. This surface reflects a large portion of light. One of the surfaces is polished with red lead oxide.
The image formed by the plane mirror is of the same size as that of the object. The distance between the object and the mirror is equal to the distance between the image and the mirror.
Out of given options, the correct one is (d) " The image can only be the same size as the object ".
