There are five basic Hardy-Weinberg assumptions:
1. Random Mating -
2. No natural selection - all members of the parental generation survived and contributed equal numbers of gametes to the gene pool, no matter the genotype
3. No genetic drift (random allele frequency changes) - the population is infinitely large.
4. No gene flow - no new alleles were added by immigration or lost through emigration (no migration)
5. No mutation - There must be mutation equilibrium.
The RNA world hypothesis states that the earlier life-forms had relied only on RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) for the purpose of catalyzing the chemical reactions, and storing the genetic information. This hypothesis was proposed by Leslie Orgel, Carl Woese, and Francis Crick.
This hypothesis states that long before the living forms evolved to use DNA as the genetic storage material, the RNA molecules served the purpose of both storing the genetic information and carrying out catalysis, but because of its instability, DNA evolved.
Hence, the answer is RNA world hypothesis.
Answer:
FF , Black fur.
ff, white fur.
Explanation:
Genotype may be defined as the genetic constitution of the organism whereas phenotype depends on the genotype for the physical expression of the trait.
Let the genotype of the dominant fur (black ) be D and the genotype of white fur (recessive) is f. homozygous means the individual should have the same allele for the trait. A mouse with homozygous dominant has genotype FF . This mouse has black fur. A mouse homozygous for the recessive trait has the genotype f. This mouse has white fur.
Thus, the answer is FF , Black fur.
ff, white fur.
Answer:A. the same number of chromosomes as was contained in the zygote.
Explanation:a zygote is formed when the sperm fertilize the egg .
After fertilization,the zygote undergoes cleavage.cleavage is the mitotic Division of the cells of a zygote to produce daughter cells.
These daughter cells are called blastomere,which contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells.the cells formed do not grow in size but continues to divide, forming a mass of cells.
This mass may be solid at first but as cleavage continues,the cells move away from the center,leaving a fluid filled cavity in the middle (blastocoel).
The mass of cells are called blastula.
