The interaction between genetics and environment and how this affects behavior, resulting in individual variances, is of particular interest to behavior geneticists.

The environment in this context refers to every external, nongenetic component of our life, including prenatal nutrition and the people and objects in our immediate surroundings.

Chromosomes:

Each of our cells contains 46 chromosomes, 23 from our mother and 23 from our father. Chromosomes are complicated, spiraling molecules formed of DNA that resemble threads and contain genes.

DNA:

We have over 30,000 genes, which are DNA segments that, when activated (expressed), serve as templates for the synthesis of different protein molecules, which serve as the foundation for our physical and behavioral growth.

Genome:

The entire collection of instructions for creating an organism, included in all of its chromosomal genetic material, is called an organism's genome.

Gene:

Combinations of mutations at certain gene locations serve to distinguish us from one another. The majority of human features are not controlled by a single gene acting alone, but rather by a number of genes working together.

Which disappears more rapidly from a population, a deleterious dominant allele or a deleterious recessive allele?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Selection is a directional process that leads to an increase or a decrease in the frequency of genes or genotypes. Selection is the process that increases the frequencies of plant resistance alleles in natural ecosystems through coevolution, and it is the process that increases the frequencies of virulence alleles in agricultural ecosystems during boom and bust cycles.

Selection occurs in response to a specific environmental factor. It is a central topic of population and evolutionary biology. The consequence of natural selection on the genetic structure and evolution of organisms is complicated. Natural selection can decrease the genetic variation in populations of organisms by selecting for or against a specific gene or gene combination (leading to directional selection). It can increase the genetic variation in populations by selecting for or against several genes or gene combinations (leading to disruptive selection or balancing selection). Natural selection might lead to speciation through the accumulation of adaptive genetic differences among reproductively isolated populations. Selection can also prevent speciation by homogenizing the population genetic structure across all locations.

Selection in plant pathology is mainly considered in the framework of gene-for-gene coevolution. Plant pathologists often think in terms of Van der Plank and his concept of "stabilizing selection" that would operate against pathogen strains with unnecessary virulence. As we will see shortly, Van der Plank used the wrong term, as he was actually referring to directional selection against unneeded virulence alleles.

Which wavelength in photosynthesis which has the highest amount of energy?
algol13
Violet and blue have the high frequencies (thus energy) of visible light. Red will be the least energy but lowest energy. And remember, chlorophyll is green because it reflects green into our eyes. Green is therefore not absorbed, so not used for photosynthesis.

Oxygen.

Oxygen was fatal when organisms started using photosynthesis, this event was known as the Great Oxidation Event.
