How do new alleles occur?
shtirl [24]
How are new alleles created? Occasionally, DNA mutations occur in germ cells – cells destined to become eggs or sperm. In this case, the DNA mutation is copied into every new cell of the growing embryo following fertilisation. ... If the mutation affects a gene, it will result in a new version of that gene – a new allele.

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is an important model organism in the field of genetics. One of the first mutant genes to be studied in
BigorU [14]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

<em>Let the wild type trait, the silver-white, be represented by </em><em>A</em><em> allele and the mutant trait, the golden color, be represented by </em><em>a</em><em> allele.</em>

Heterozygous wild-type male fish would be Aa

Golden female fish would be aa

     Aa    x    aa

  Aa   Aa    aa    aa

2/4 Aa = silver-white

2/4 aa = golden color

<em>Hence, the percent likelihood of golden offspring is </em><em>2/4 or 50%.</em>

The correct option is b.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is - microevolution.

Explanation:

Microevolution is the very small evolutionary change specially allele frequencies on the level of species that occurs slowly over period of time. These changes occurs on the level of DNA or genetic level.

These evolution can be caused by the natural selection process or genetic drift over the generation of the species or population over period of the time. It is the study of the evolution that occurred on level of separated gene pool.

Thus, the correct answer is- microevolution.
