What determines if a mutation is passed on within a population

Biology
1 answer:
Sophie [7]3 years ago
3 0
Reproduction rate and population size helps determine how fast the mutation is passed within a population. Also if it is favorable to species it helps determine if it is passed and unfavorable mutations tend to die off. Think about for example if one species has a favorable environment gene then it's going to have a higher chance or survival and reproduction than the other species. Also genes help determine if mutation is passed on.

Glycogen is formed in the liver during the ________.
postnew [5]
Glycogen is formed in the liver during the absorptive state. Glycogen formation is called glycogenesis, which takes place depending on the demand for glucose and ATP. If both are present in relatively high amounts, then the excess of insulin promotes the glucose conversion into glycogen for storage in the liver and muscle cells.

List and describe each of the five major attributes of populations that help ecologists predict population growth or decline. Br
ser-zykov [4K]

The five major attributes of populations that help ecologists predict population growth or decline are -

1. Population size- This describes the total population in the area. It helps to ascertain if there is any need for population protection or any need for breeding.

2. Population density- It determines that large organisms live in less populated density places whereas it is easy to find groups and mates in a high populated places.

3. Population distribution- A population may have a uniform, random, or clumped distribution pattern

4. Sex ratio- It depicts the number of males to number of females. This will determine if the population will increase or decrease in the near future.

5. Age structure- defines the relative numbers of organisms in each age group. This indicates whether population will grow or shrink overtime.

podryga [215]

Answer:

0.8

Explanation:

Allele frequency simply shows how common an allele is in a population.

It is calculated by counting the number of times it appears divided by the total number of copies of the gene.

The frequency of all alleles  of a gene present in a population must equate to 1.

so,<u><em> p+q=1</em></u>

If the Allele frequency of A  whose phenotype are green grasshoppers is  0.2 to find the frequency for a (brown grasshoppers) will be';

<u><em> 1-0.2=0.8</em></u>

How can chemical differentiation be used to explain the distribution of elements on Earth OR within our solar system?
N76 [4]

Answer:

Substances in nature rarely exist as single element but combination of more than one elements.

This combination of element is referred to as compounds.

These compounds can breakdown from temperature change or change in pressure and so on ,these atmospheric change exist in nature and with long climatic change over a period and could lead to elements recombining and could be transported to other areas from weathering.
