How does inbreeding alter genotype and allele frequencies?

Biology
1 answer:
erik [133]4 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The inbreeding process, are blood crossings between relatives who have a common ancestor. Inbreeding leads to an increase in the frequency of homozygous genotypes and a decrease in the frequency of heterozygotes. We may also note that although changes in genotypic frequencies occur, no changes in allelic frequencies are observed over successive generations of self-fertilization. The main consequence of 2 individuals sharing one or more common ancestors is that they may carry replicas (identical copies) of one or more genes present in these ancestors. And if these individuals mate, they can pass on such replicas to their offspring, generating self-sibling offspring, that is, with two identical copies of the same gene that was present in these common ancestors.

When you come to a conclusion by connecting data with information you already know what are you doing?
Talja [164]

The skill of connecting gathered data with information that is known to us is called data analysis. This is a key part of the data analysis process. Example:

It is a fact that foxes are known predators of rats. Lets say you have a data table or observation table that shows the increase in number of rats in your locality versus the increase in the number of fox being spotted by the residents. Now based on the fact that you know, a relation can be established between the increased fox sightings and increase in rat numbers.

Can wind travel faster than the speed of sound?
Zigmanuir [339]

Yes, wind can travel faster than the speed of sound. Wind is just the bulk movement of a mass of air through space and is in principle no different from a train speeding along or a comet zipping through space.
