Consider the following 3 populations of butterflies. Assume HW equilibrium. With these butterflies brown spots on the wings is r

ecessive, while black spots on wings is dominant.
Population 1 has 50 butterflies, of which 5 are brown-spotted and 45 are black-spotted
Population 2 has 500 butterflies of which 125 are brown-spotted and 375 are black-spotted
Population 3 has 1.250 butterflies, of which 313 are brown-spotted and 937 are black-spotted.
Which population is least susceptible to an alteration of allele frequencies due to an accident?
a. insufficient information
b. they are all the same
c. population 2 and 3
d. population 1
e. population 2
f. population 3
Which population is most likely to be subject to a bottleneck effect?
a. population 3
b. population 2 and 3
c. population 1
d. they are all the same
e. insufficient information
f. population 2
Which population has the highest frequency for the brown allele?
a. population 1
b. population 2 and 3
c. they are all the same
d. insufficient information
e. population 2
f. population 3

Answer:

Population 3

As there are more number of individuals in this population , allele frequency is least likely to alter because of accident which may involve not many butterflies.

Population 1

Bottle neck effect causes more losses due to genetic drifts on small populations. So population 1 with 50 butterflies is most susceptible.

Population  3

Population 3 has the highest frequency of the brown allele.

Population 1 = 5/45 = 0.11

Population 2 = 125/500 = 0.2500

Population 3 = 313/1250 = 0.2504

Order the events to show the evolution of the universe after the big bang. Inflation: Nucleosynthesis: Formation of first stars:
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Here are the correct order of events that show evolution of the universe:

  1. Inflation  
  2. Separation of last two fundamental forces
  3. Formation of subatomic particles
  4. Nucleosynthesis
  5. Formation of first stars

Explanation:

According to big bang theory, there were series of events carried on that lead to the formation of stars in the universe.

  • Inflation was the time when universe began to expand at extremely fast pace.The dimensions of that old universe during the fraction of a second expanded by a factor of at-least 10^26 to 10 cm. Elementary particles like quark began to expand into the thin layer of universe.
  • A strong nuclear force separated from its other two forces and the interactions between already created particles lead to the formation of more particles like Higgs bosons, W and Z etc.
  • When the universe began to cool down below 10 quadrillion degrees, neutrinos, electrons and quarks began to form. Antiquarks and quarks annihilated with each other in a process called baryogenesis, this lead to the formation of matter.
  • When the universe began to cool down below  a billion degrees, the atomic nuclei begin to form when neutrons and protons combined by fusion reactions. The initially created nuclei were of simplest elements like helium, hydrogen and lithium.
  • The period between the formation of first stars and atoms is called as dark age because there were no stars at that time. The formation of stars and galaxies was made 300 - 500 million years later. When the universe was kept expanding, gas pockets and gases became more and more dense. The small gas particles were collapsed under own gravity and became so hot that fusion reactions were triggered in them. Fusion between hydrogen atoms was the reaction which lead to the formation of most primitive stars.

Pea experiment:

Answer:

Mendel also experimented to see what would happen if plants with 2 or more pure-bred traits were cross-bred. He found that each trait was inherited independently of the other and produced its own 3:1 ratio. This is the principle of independent assortment .
