A group of cells is assayed for DNA content immediately following mitosis (G1) and is found to have an average of 8 picograms of

DNA per nucleus. How many picograms would be found at the end of S, and the end of G2 for this cell type

4 0

Answer:

16 pg at the end of S

16 pg at the end of G2

Explanation:

A cell has 8 pg of DNA per nucleus in G1.

During S phase the DNA replicates, so every nucleus will contain double the normal amount of DNA that was present in G1. Therefore, at the end of S each nucleus would have 16 pg of DNA.

During G2 the cell continues growing and preparing for mitosis, but DNA content does not change: there are still 16 pg per nucleus.

A population in which the frequency of alleles remains the same over generations is said to be in genetic equilibrium. Describe
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Natural selection disrupts the genetic equilibrium by favoring the genes for the traits that impart survival advantage to individuals.

Explanation:

Natural selection refers to the unequal survival rate of individuals of a population due to the presence of some beneficial adaptive genetic trait. These individuals are able to survive more and leave more progeny. Over generations, the population has increased number of these individuals leading to evolution of a population with different allele frequencies.  

For example, the frequency of gene for antibiotic resistance in the bacterial population was increased once humans started using antibiotics to control the bacterial population. This led to the evolution of the bacterial population with antibiotic resistance.
