Assortative mating is the evolutionary mechanism that changes genotype frequencies but does not change allele frequencies.

Assortative mating is the type where two individuals mate with each other on the basis of their similarities and dissimilarities. This is a different phenomenon than the random mating that occurs by chance. Assortative mating can be used to increase the number of organisms of a population containing a certain trait.

Allele is the alternative form of a gene. It arises due to mutations. A gene can have more than one types of alleles. However, usually a gene only has one allele. The alleles are found at the same location of the homologous chromosomes.

What structure is most important in forming the tetrads?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- synaptonemal complex.

Explanation:

The tetrad arrangement of the genetic material in an organism is mediated by a highly conserved structure known as the synaptonemal complex.  The synaptonemal complex is formed during the prophase I of the meiosis I which attaches the chromatin of the homologous chromosomes.

The synaptonemal complex is a proteinaceous structure which is formed by the two lateral ladders like elements with a central portion composed of the central element. The chromatin gets attached to the lateral elements while the central a portion bridge space between the two ladders thus help in the formation of the tetrad.

Thus, option- synaptonemal complex is the correct answer.

The mutation that causes sickle cell disease in humans is
IgorC [24]

Answer: Missense mutation

Explanation:

Missense mutation is a type of point mutation where a single nucleotide is changed to cause substitution of a different amino acid. This in turns render the resulting protein non-functional.

In the case of sickle-cell disease, the sixth amino acid in the gene sequence, glutamate (GAG) is substituted with valine (GUA), due to Adenine nucleotide changed to Uracil nucleotide. Thus, missense mutation has occurred
