A hypothetical population of a trout lives in a lake in california. the fish in this population have two color phenotypes, brown

and white. both phenotypes are relatively equal in the population. in this species, scale color is controlled by different alleles for the same gene. the population in the lake is isolated from other populations of trout as there are no rivers or streams connecting the lake to other bodies of water. one winter, a rockslide on a cliff bordering the lake kills half of the fish living in the lake. by random chance, the majority of the fish killed in the rockslide have the white phenotype. several years later, a scientist studying the population of trout in the lake observes that there are no more white fish present in the lake. what is most likely responsible for the change in phenotypic frequency of trout in the lake?

What complementary strand of DNA would be produced from the strand of DNA shown below?<br> TCG GA
mariarad [96]
Complementary pairing goes like this:

A pairs with T and 
C pairs with G. Nothing about this changes unless you get to mRNA (But we won't go into that) :)

So if you have a strand that goes TCG GA then your pairing will look like this:

T A
C G
G C
G C
A T

Hope this helps!! :)

How did land whales eventually became aquatic?
cluponka [151]

Explanation:

To swim, they move their tails up and down, rather than back and forth as fishes do. This is because whales evolved from walking land mammals whose backbones did not naturally bend side to side, but up and down. ... Whales do the same thing as they swim, showing their ancient terrestrial heritage.

Cetaceans are fully aquatic marine mammals belonging to the order Artiodactyla, and branched off from other artiodactyls around 50 mya (million years ago). Cetaceans are thought to have evolved during the Eocene or earlier, sharing a closest common ancestor with hippopotamuses.
