In a species of fish, fin shape is controlled by a single gene that has only two alleles. In a generation of 185 fish, the frequ

ency of the recessive allele is 0.25. After six generations, the recessive allele frequency in a population of 230 fish is 0.43. Which of the following does this most likely indicate about the dominant and recessive alleles?
The dominant allele is more advantageous than the recessive allele because it produces larger populations.
The dominant allele will disappear entirely as the recessive allele increases in frequency.
The recessive allele is easier to transmit than the dominant allele during reproduction.
The recessive allele produces a phenotype that is better able to survive and reproduce than the dominant phenotype.

The correct answer is: The recessive allele produces a phenotype that is better able to survive and reproduce than the dominant phenotype.

Natural selection (adaptation mechanism), gene flow, and mutation combine to change allele frequencies across generations. Natural selection tends to increase in frequency beneficial alleles, while it tends to decrease in frequency deleterious alleles.

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The interaction between the sloths and the leaves they eat is an example of a<u> predator-prey</u> relationship. In this example, sloths are <u>herbivores</u> that acquire their nutrients and energy from the<u> plants</u> they eat. The colors of coral snakes provide these animals with <u>mimicry</u> to avoid predation. Specifically, their coloration helps them <u>advertise their toxicity.</u> The interaction between the hosts and the ticks that live on them can be characterized as <u>parasitism</u>, because <u>one species feeds on the other</u>.

Explanation:

Predator-prey relationships are those in which a specie feeds on another specie. The sloth is the predator that feeds on the leaves which are its prey. Herbivores feed on plants. Therefore, the sloth are rightly classified as herbivores.

Coral snakes are brightly colored with red, yellow, and black patches that warn potential predators of their toxicity. Ticks living on hosts are parasitic because the ticks feed on their host.

Degger [83]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The light microscope uses visible light to produce images of objects on its slide while the electron microscope uses beams of electrons to project the image of specimens.  Color is a property of photons of light, hence, the light microscope is able to produce images of specimens in their natural colors </em>

<em>The areas of the specimen on an electron microscope in which the beams of electron pass through usually appear white while other areas appear black. Hence, the electron microscopes can only produce grayscale images of specimens unless a false color is added to make the images visually appealing.</em>
