Which conditions are common to all three of the following: genetic drift, the founder principle, and the bottleneck effect? a. i

n small populations when one genetic trait becomes more common in a population purely by chance b. in small populations and result in a decrease in genetic diversity and/or an increase in the occurrence of specific genetic traits c. when a small group of organisms only reproduce with each other to create a larger population of organisms d. when the majority of a population is killed off and there are only a few remaining organisms left to rebuild the population

Explanation:

Common to genetic drift, the founder principle, and the bottleneck effect:

b. in small populations and result in a decrease in genetic diversity and/or an increase in the occurrence of specific genetic traits

c. when a small group of organisms only reproduce with each other to create a larger population of organisms

d. when the majority of a population is killed off and there are only a few remaining organisms left to rebuild the population

Further Explanation:

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise, called mutations. These are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes.

These mutations form variants which become stable within a population, leading to the formation of separate, genetically distinct populations called species.

  • mutations accumulate in a population over time, altering the frequency of alleles or different forms of a gene- this is called genetic drift.
  • In the founder effect, the separation of a group from a larger group can decrease genetic diversity, this can create a genetically distinct population
  • In the bottleneck effect, a population die off or barrier to reproduction increases the genetic drift in the population

The set of all populations inhabiting a certain area is called a(n):
zheka24 [161]
A community refers to the total number of populations that inhabit a specific location or area. This is part of the levels of organization of life. Arranged from the least complex to most complex it falls 8th in the category. Below are the organization of life:<span>

a. Organelles - the basic part of a living organism. It refers to the different structures of the cell, whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic. (Ex. Mitochondria, nucleus)
b. Cells - building blocks of life that are composed of different molecules responsible for the function of an organism. (Example: prokaryotic, eukaryotic cells)
c. Tissues - combinations of cells that carry out a specific function in an organism. (Example: Human skin)
d. Organs - collections of tissues that perform specific functions. (Ex. heart, lungs)
e. Organ Systems - composed of interconnected organs that function as a whole. Many organisms, particularly mamamals, are composed of organ systems. (Ex. respiratory, circulatory systems)
f. Organisms – individual entities that specifically make-up a population. (Ex. Each tree in the forest is an organism, each animal in sea is an organism)</span>
g. Population – species living within a specific location. It could be the same or different species that inhabit a place. (Ex. Birds are species in the forest as well as bears)
h. Community – refers to the total number of populations that inhabit a specific location. (Ex. All of the trees, insects, birds that inhabit the forest are a community)
i. Ecosystem – consists of all living things that function together as a group which also includes the non-living parts of the environment. (Ex. Rain water, nitrogen in the soil)
<span>j. Biosphere – the highest organization of life that consist of all the collection of ecosystems in the planet. It includes the land, air, water, even the atmosphere of the planet. </span>

The length of bamboo grows much faster than that of thickness why?​
iren [92.7K]

Using a slow- and fast-growing variant of bamboo, Wei and colleagues looked at cell division, growth, and gene expression (through transcriptomics, which measures all the genes being expressed by an individual) to discover which genes may be responsible for fast growth in bamboo. They found that the slow-growing variant had reduced expression of genes relating to cell wall construction, the plant hormone auxin (important for cell growth and cell division), and had irregular cell growth and cell walls. Wei and colleagues suggest that a reduced ability to produce and perceive auxin, combined with a weakened cell wall, are responsible for the slow growth seen in the bamboo variant.
