Henry was studying two populations of the same species of lizards. One population lived on an island and the other lived on the

mainland. Both populations were affected by a hurricane that hit the island and the mainland with equal force. A year later, Henry was testing the gene frequency and saw a decrease in genetic variation in the island species, but not in the mainland species. Which best describes a conclusion he might have reached?
A. Gene flow greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover.

B. Genetic drift greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover.

C. Gene flow greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover.

D. Genetic drift greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover.

Creeper in chickens is a condition where chickens are born with very short legs. The creeper allele (C) is dominant over the nor
Fantom [35]

Answer:2 creeper, I normal

Explanation: According to mendelian law when 2 creeper are crossed we should have 3 creeper and 1 normal but because homozgous allele is lethal(lethal means allele that are deleterious and it causes the death of the individual carrying it) it leads it death and we have 2 creeper and 2 normal. The creeper are heterozyous having two different allele.

For everywhere that homozygous individual that are dominant for creeper occur it will always leads to there death because the allele are lethal

According to Darwin's theory of evolution, how do new species evolve?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

According to Darwin's theory of evolution, new species evolved as a result of natural selection.

Explanation:

  • Darwin proposed that speciation could readily occur through the prolonged action of Natural selection.
  • Natural selection allows the 'survival of the fittest' i.e. a more fit organism will have a better chance of survival than the less fit one.
  • The result of Natural selection could be positive,negative or balancing.
  • Evolutionary process in which the genetic changes confer a higher fitness to increase frequency of the organism over time in population is called positive selection.
  • Evolutionary process in which genetic changes decreases the organism's fitness resulting in its disappearance from the population is called Negative selection.
  • It may happen that a mutation benefits hetero-zygotes but not homo-zygotes and alleles maintain a intermediate frequency in population.This evolutionary process is called balancing selection.
