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.

What would happen if guard cells in a plant stopped working?
Bumek [7]
The correct option is C

<span>C.Stomata would not open and close.
</span>
This is because guard cells play an important function of controlling stomata. the ensures that stomata are open during the day and closed during the night for the purposes of photosynthesis. The stomata are the pores that are found on the under surface of a plant leave,whose role is gaseous exchange.

How has the use of pcr improved modern dna forensic science?
mestny [16]
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a relatively new advance (1980's) but it has a great impact in our lives. Specifically, in forensic science, PCR is useful in many sorts of crimes . Up until the PCR method, in order to identify a person forensic scientists would use fingerprints or some other ambiguous methods like teeth marks etc. But now, with PCR, we can compare the genetic material found on a crime scene and compare it with a suspect's genetic material, definitively concluding whether they are the same person or not. The way this works is that we collect a sample from the crime scene with DNA and then PCR amplifies the quantity of DNA in that sample. One of the apparent advantages of this method is that PCR works with even a very small sample, often not even a single cell is required. This makes crime scenes full of information. Hence, succinctly, PCR has helped modern forensic science in that:
1) its results are more definitve than traditional identification methods and subject to less ambiguity
2) it is relatively fast
3) new pieces of evidence can be of value (like some hair cells) and identify the crominal in cases that in older times would be impossible to solve.
