In prokaryotes new mutations accumulate quickly in populations, while in eukaryotes new mutations accumulate much more slowly.

Biology
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In Prokaryotes the the rate of new mutations is much more as compared to the eukaryotes. The rate of accumulation of mutation is slow in case of  eukaryote because their generation is long as compared to prokaryotes.

Prokaryotes have short generation time and large population size which enables them to accumulate the mutation quickly.

The machinery is also not that complex when it comes to prokaryotes. Transduction, conjugation and tranposable elements. So, the changes during these processes leads to mutation in the prokaryotes and can be observed quickly due to their small generation.

What will happen to a population of predators if there is a sudden increased in food for the prey
Umnica [9.8K]
At first, the population of predators would spike and increase quickly, but then over time, gradually decrease.

(This is because at first there's more food, so the predators population increases. But overtime it begins to level out and the predators' population catches up with the prey, and in result, doesn't continue increasing.)

MAXImum [283]
A recessive trait inheritance could be more prevalent in a population than the dominant because mutation could occur because the mating does not have a wide variation causing a lethal gene or an autosomal sex link to be easily passed on the offspring

Which of the following describes a relationship of mutualism?
Reika [66]
  • Oxpecker birds eat parasitic ticks off the backs of zebras is an example of mutualism.
  • Mutualism is defined as a relationship between organisms in which both the individuals involved are benefitted from each other.
  • In the case of oxpecker birds and zebras, the oxpecker birds benefit as they get their food from the parasitic ticks living on the zebra and the zebras benefit as the birds help them to get rid of the parasites.
  • In this way, both these organisms are involved in a mutualistic relationship.
