How to compare directional and disruptive selection?

Biology
1 answer:
dangina [55]3 years ago
3 0
 Both of th
 <span>Both of these show the distribution of phenotypes. In directional selection, the distribution of phenotypes forms a "bell curve." Selection against one of the extreme phenotypes causes the distribution to "move" in one direction or the other. An example might be plants whose flower color is determined by incomplete dominance: white, pink, or red. Pink flowers may be the average phenotype, but if we start to remove red flowers from the population, the "mean" phenotype will be shifted toward white flowers. 
In disruptive selection, the average phenotype is selected against. This produces a "two-humped" bell-type curve, and the greater distribution is split between the two phenotype extremes. If we have the same type of incomplete dominance as mentioned in the previous paragraph, assume that the pink flowers are selected against. This means that the two "humps" shown in the distribution will be centered around the red and white phenotypes</span>

spin [16.1K]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Homogenization is a completely separate process  which involve mechanical breakdown of fat molecules in the milk which increases the shelf life of milk by preventing the cream from rising at the top.

Hence, the given statement is False.

Alisiya [41]

Answer is a. he projections are trichocysts, released for the self-defense of the <em>Paramecium</em>.

When <em>Paramecium</em> is stimulated by chemicals such as picric acid or an injurious enemy, it responds by throwing out transparent spine-like projections called trichocysts. The discharge of trichocysts forms an effective barrier round the animal and protects it from acid or enemy.
