Which of the following is NOT a requirement for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?

Biology
1 answer:
aev [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D. Small population size

Explanation:

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium requires the presence of a large randomly mating population. Small population size makes the population more likely to deviate from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium due to sampling error or chance events occurring during the genetic drift. Large population size ensures that the population maintains the constant allele frequencies over generations, that is the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

taurus [48]

Answer:

(A) Benthic- Benthic refers to the lowest or the bottom zone of the water body such as seas, and oceans. The organisms existing under such extreme pressure conditions are commonly known as benthic organisms. For example, corals and bivalves.

(B) Pelagic- Pelagic refers to the upper top portion of a water body, covering the open sea areas. The organisms existing in this region include dolphins and sharks.

(C) Sessile- Sessile refers to the property where an organism is stationary and cannot move freely from one place to another. These are known as sessile organisms such as coral polyps, Mussels.

(B) Mobile- refers to the property by which an organism can move freely in any direction it wants. For example, fishes, dolphins.

(E) Evisceration- It is a specific type of property where organisms can eject their internal organs in order to protect themselves from predators. for example, Sea cucumbers.

(F) Chitin- Chitin is a hard shell that is present in various organisms, forming its exoskeleton, for defense purposes. For example, arthropods.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The light from Alpha Centauri system takes 4.37 light-years and  Sirius star system takes 8.6 light-years to reach the Earth.

Explanation:

Light from millions of stars in more distant galaxies takes a long time to reach the Earth. Light travels at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second. The time taken for light from these stars to reach the Earth is the distance to the star divided by the speed of the light. The distance traveled by light in one year is known as a light year and the distance to the stars that are farther away is expressed in light years.

The Sun is the closest star to the Earth and the sunlight takes about 8.3 minutes to reach on Earth. Apart from the Sun, the other stars closest to Sun include Alpha Centauri system and the Sirius star systems.

The Alpha  Centauri system includes the stars Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B and Proxima Centauri. This system is 4.37 light-years away from the Earth. The third star, Proxima Centauri is 4.24 light-years away from the Earth i.e., the light from it takes 4.24 years to reach the Earth.

The Sirius star systems include Sirius A (Dog Star) and Sirius B. It is about 8.6 light years from Earth and so the light about 8.6 years to reach the Earth.

When looking at an active metabolite of a medication, such as 9-hydroxyrisperidone (paliperidone), how does it differ from the p
cluponka [151]

Paliperidone has low affinity for lipid-rich environments compared from the parent compound risperidone. Due to its hydrophilicity characteristic, paliperidone is capable of hydrogen bonding with other molecules containing water and hydroxyl groups. Lipophilicity is a determining factor for the rate and degree of metabolism of the drug in the body and for crossing the blood–brain barrier (BBB).

Moreover, these differences are implicated in synaptic plasticity and neuronal firing effects in the mechanism of mitochondrial movement, protein expression, and phosphorylation of the drug. Paliperidone as a mood stabilizer is an active metabolite of risperidone with antipsychotic effects used for the treatment of schizophrenia and its associated disorders.
