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.

Answer:

No genetic drift can affect allele frequencies for the gene.

Explanation:

Any condition that changes allele frequencies in the population represents a violation of the Hardy-Weinberg principle and means that the population will not be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

The first step in treating drinking water, called ____________________, involves passing water through a series of screens.
AlekseyPX

The right answer is Filtration.

A water filter is composed of a filtration system that aims to separate the water from the solid particles (residues) by passing it through a porous medium, which allows only the liquids and the finer solid particles to pass through. as the filter holes (porosity). The water that comes out of this filtration system is rid of solid particles larger than the pores of the filter.

Some water filters are designed to make drinking water (very fine filtration, less than the size of a microbe).

What is the endosymbiotic hypothesis?
stepan [7]

Answer: What does the endosymbiont hypothesis propose? It proposes that early eukaryotic cells acquired the precursors of mitochondria and chloroplasts by engulfing certain types of bacteria. ... Mitochondria, chloroplasts, and centrioles in eukaryotic cells each contain their own minute and unique supply of DNA.

Explanation:

The first piece of evidence that needed to be found to support the endosymbiotic hypothesis was whether or not mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA and if this DNA is similar to bacterial DNA. This was later proven to be true for DNA, RNA, ribosomes, chlorophyll (for chloroplasts), and protein synthesis.
