Answer:
A new mutation
Explanation:
A mutation refers to the random changes in the DNA of organisms. A mutation changes the allele and genotype frequencies by the introduction of a new allele in the gene pool.
However, mutations are not the major factor responsible for changes in the gene pool of a population as mutations are rare. The rate of mutations is very slow and does not allow it to serve as a major factor to change the allele and genotype frequencies.
<span>The biome is characterized by climate, temperature, and rainfall. The climatic factors that intervene are the altitude, latitude, and types of soil. Latitude determines temperature and seasonality and defines polar, subpolar, temperate, subtropical and tropical climates. Precipitation and latitude determine wet, sub-humid, dry or seasonal, semi-arid and arid types. The altitude determines the basal, premontane, montane, alpine and snow types. And only soil types are a determining factor in the influence of climatic factors and their variation and behavior within the biome.</span>
Answer:
The mechanism that Darwin proposed for evolution is natural selection. Because resources are limited in nature, organisms with heritable traits that favor survival and reproduction will tend to leave more offspring than their peers, causing the traits to increase in frequency over generations.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) B b) D c) A
Explanation:
Alleles exhibit dominance over each other leading to the dominant one being express and the recessive one not expressed. Alleles are variants (different) genes that codes for a specific trait.
At Anaphase 1 homologous chromosomes separate leading to each being pulled to the opposite pole and the sister chromatids remain together while the homologs experience segregation.
Dominant trait is the one that is expressed. It usually exercise dominance over recessive trait until it is removed from the recessive trait and replaced with another recessive gene before it is expressed.
