A mistake in DNA replication before meiosis produces an organism that is better able to outrun predators.

Explanation:

The genetic variation results from the different alleles of a population. The mutation or mistake in DNA replication would cause gene variants which may be beneficial. The variation in the DNA sequence of genome results in variants in small population.

Genetic variation is the cause of natural selection and eventually, evolution takes place with beneficial traits.

It is mentioned in the question that resulting offspring having received the mutant allele could result in better surviving capabilities or phenotypic traits as they are able to outrun predators.

What percentage of offspring from a cross between a homozygous type A parent with a heterozygous Type A parent is expected to co
snow_lady [41]

The correct answer is option B, 50%

Let us take the following case:

Genotype of heterozygous parent - (Aa)

Genotype of homozygous parent – (aa)

Allele I  - (Aa)

Allele II – (aa)

The cross between the two is shown below:

Aa  X aa

Aa, Aa, aa, aa

There are 50 % Aa, and 50 % aa allele.  

Thus, the allele I (Aa) is 50 %.
