Speciation, when populations evolve to become distinct species

4 0
Differences in species occur when there is temporal, geographical, behavioral, and or mechanical isolation. Over time the groups diverge from each other and become so different that they can no longer reproduce with each other. This is called divergence. The process of creating the two new species is called speciation.

Which of the following accurately pairs the phase of the cell cycle with its primary purpose? A. S phase–DNA replication B. G2 p
GenaCL600 [577]

The correct answer is option A, S Phase - DNA Replication

The DNA replication begin at the S phase of the cell cycle. In this phase, the cell grows and prepare itself for the DNA replication while the other components such as centro some undergo replication. The S phase occurs during the inter phase and the genetic material duplicates itself before entering the mitosis and meiosis cell division in the next stage.

Should existing structures build from CCA-treated wood be removed?
stiks02 [169]
<span>Chromated copper arsenate, or CCA, is a pesticide that has been used for years in pressure-treating lumber to prevent destruction from rot and insects. Arsenic, a toxic chemical, can leach from this treated wood, leaving residues on the wood’s surface and in nearby soil. Young children who play on or near decks or playscapes made from CCA- treated wood can get arsenic on their skin and into their bodies, especially if they eat or drink without washing their hands. Because of the health risks of long-term exposure to arsenic, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that as of December 31, 2003, arsenic Currently the EPA does not recommend that people remove existing structures made with CCA-treated wood or the soil surrounding those structures. However, they do recommend that people reduce their potential exposure to arsenic.</span>

The ________ a population, the greater the potential effect of genetic drift on gene frequencies.
densk [106]
The smaller a population, the greater the potential effect of genetic drift on gene frequencies.
Genetic drift is an evolutionary term which refers to the random changes in a population's allele frequencies. These changes happen by chance due to the random selection of alleles from the genetic pool in each generation. Genetic drift can lead to either loss of some alleles or the fixation of others (100% frequency). The effect of genetic drift is stronger in smaller populations. This is because, the larger the population, the larger the sample size and the slower the result of genetic drift.
