Evolution and natural selection are for C. The long term survival of an entire species of organisms. Organisms are better suited to live in a particular environment due to the transmission of specific genes from the parental generation to the offspring that can lead to these species evolving if much mutations are associated also with the passing down of specific alleles for respective genes that enable the organism to survive for a longer duration in its environment.
The first process is called transcription where the DNA's information is used to make mRNA. The second process is called translation where the tRNA comes with an amino acid to drop off. A chain of amino acids will eventually be formed to create a protein. Transcription comes before translation. Think that you have to script something before you can translate it.
Answer:
The genotype of the parents are not given. Let's try to answer this question generally. Let's assume the genotype of both parents to be Bb as genotype is not given.
Explanation:
B b
B BB Bb
b Bb bb
There is a 25% chance that the offspring will have BB genotype.
There is a 50% chance that the offspring will have Bb genotype.
There is a 25% chance that the offspring will have bb genotype.
There is a 75% chance that the offspring will have a dominant trait.
There is a 25% chance that the offspring will have recessive trait.
Phenotypic ratio will be 3:1
Allele frequency is determined by looking at the dominant and recessive allele of a genotype.
Using the given, we can come up with the following computation for the allele frequency:
allele A = 100/300 allele B = 50/300 allele O = 150/300
Hence, the frequency of allele A is 0.33 or 33%, allele B is .17 or 17% and allele O is 0.50 or 50%.
