Question

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.

Answer 1

bottleneck effect --- > A disease wipes out almost 90% of a population of birds, but the species adapts, and after 5 years its numbers increase dramatically.

gene flow --->  A population of rats travels on a cargo ship and mate with rats in a new region.

founder effect ---> Biologists introduce a small population of lizards on an island as part of a conservation effort.

mutation ---> A change in a DNA sequence causes a lizard to develop a darker skin color, which helps it hide from predators.

Answer 2

The right matches are :

Bottleneck effect is matched with Disease wipes out almost 90% of a population...

Gene flow is matched with Population of rats travels...

Founder effect is matched with Biologists introduce a small population...

Mutation is matched with Change in a DNA sequence...

The mutation is simply defined by a change in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA of a species.

The founder effect is genetic variation that occurs when a new population is established.

The bottleneck effect is a major decrease in a population of species due to a spontaneous or provoked phenomenon.

gene flow is an addition of a new allelic lot in a population (introduction of individuals into a population of which they were not originally a part).
