Answer:

diploid organisms

Explanation:

An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. Humans are called diploid organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from each parent.

The O allele is unusually frequent in the Americas. What does this pattern suggest about the evolutionary history of these popul
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Populations from the Americas started from a founding population with a high frequency of the O allele

Explanation:

Human blood type is determined by three different codominant alleles: IA, IB, and, which are named A (IA), B (IB), and O (i). Each person has two blood type alleles, i.e., one allele inherited from the mother and one from the father. The frequency of the O blood allele is very high in indigenous populations, and in Central and South American populations this allele may reach a frequency of 1 (100%). In consequence, the predominance of the O blood allele in Native American populations suggests that these populations descended from a founding population that had a high frequency of the O blood allele. A founder effect may even cause the fixation of one allele within a population, and this phenomenon is known to be associated with the loss of genetic variation.

<span>The trilobites seen in this image was once found widespread in the ocean. Something Changed To Limit and finally abolish their success. What do scientists use this example as proof of ? The answers are A. life changes over time and B. Vesitigial organisms once had a function in ancient times.The trilobites first appeared in the Cambrian period and though they entered a decline int the Devonian period, some of them survived until Permian time or for a period of 270 million years. They were divided into 3 segments and were early examples of arthropods. They tended to live on or near the bottom of the oceans and were scavengers in part and as well as living on the ocean floor some swam and fed on plankton. </span>
