<span>the large population becomes smaller. also, bottleneck is when a large population quickly shrinks. the effects of genetic drift becomes much stronger. e.g: seals alleles can be lost during bottleneck and the number of alleles left can shift dramatically in just a few generations.</span>

masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct options for this question are:

<span>A) Roaches ate about the same amount from the dish with no hydramethylnon as they did from the control dish.
B) Roaches ate about the same amount from the dish with no oleic acid as they did from the control dish.
F) Roaches are refusing corn syrup.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>In this scenario (before pesticides were ever introduced to cockroaches) a certain subset of the population was genetically more likely to avoid oleic acid for whatever reason.  Traits like this float throughout populations and contribute to genetic variance.  When pesticides are introduced to the population, cockroaches with the previously neutral trait of oleic acid avoidance were now given a significant boost in regards to their relative fitness.</span>

The Pacific sea otter was hunted to near extinction in the early 1900s. The loss of this predator resulted in several changes to
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

  • Interspecific competition between sea urchins and Stellar's sea cows  
  • Predation fo sea urchins by sea otters

Explanation:

As urchins and Stellar's sea cows feed on seaweed, since these algae are low in quantity, these two organisms end up competing for food, creating an inter-specific competition, which occurs when two organisms compete for the same resource within a same ecological niche. However, as the hedgehog has advantages in this niche, this competition was interrupted.

The otters' predatorism in relation to sea urchins was also interrupted, as the otters reached a very low population level, failing to control the hedgehog population and generating an environmental imbalance.
