Answer:
a. Directional selection favors one end of the phenotype distribution, whereas
stabilizing selection favors intermediate over extreme phenotypes
Explanation:
Directional selection is called directional because it favors one phenotype over another, and stabilizing selection finds a balance between phenotypes.
Genetic diversity serves as a way for populations to adapt to changing environments. With more variation, it is more likely that some individuals in a population will possess variations of alleles that are suited for the environment. Those individuals are more likely to survive to produce offspring bearing that allele.
I'll give some help
if u know Country's it will be easier and if u know how the Country looks like it will make sense. Basically just read the bottom paragraph and it will make sense.
Answer:
Part A: Thr-Leu-Val
Part B: ACC-UUG-GUU
Explanation:
When you transcribe a DNA sequence to mRNA, you need to remember that in RNA there is no Thymine (T), instead it has Uracil (U). So the base pairings would be like this compared to DNA base pairing:
DNA RNA
A-T A-U
T-A T-A
C-G G-C
G-C C-G
Given the sequence the transcription will be as follows:
DNA : TGG - AAC - CAA
mRNA: ACC - UUG - GUU
Next, to translate it into amino acids, you will use the chart. Now amino acids pair in codons (3 base pairs at a time). Let's take the first codon in your sequence:
ACC
1st 2nd 3rd
A C C
Using the column on the left, find the row that matches it, so in this case A.
At the very top, there is another row of letters, looking at the row of A only, look for the column of the second base which is C.
Lastly, look at the right most column and find the letter that matches the third base within the box where A and C intersect. In this case, C is your third base.
The amino acid where all three intersect is your first amino acid which is Thr.
Just do this for the next codons and you will come up with the answer.
Answer:
In order to propose a hypothesis, there is a need to first see the function of gills in fishes. The gills of fishes comprise blood vessels that exhibit inherited tendencies of getting oxygen out of the water, which was consumed by fishes from their mouths. These gills also comprise thin walls, and when water moves over these walls of blood vessels, the oxygen from water moves into the blood, and then this oxygen-enriched blood goes to various organs.
Thus, one of the hypotheses in the given case, can be the number of blood vessels, which are found in the gills of the mentioned freshwater fish to be higher in comparison to the blood vessels found in the normal fishes, and apart from this, the surface area of the thin walls, which are found in the gills is also more in the new species of freshwater fish.
