Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The dark colored moths are increasing with time. This clearly indicates that the dark colored moths are able to save themselves from the predators. The predators of moth identify them only by the contrasting color of the moth and its habitat. Moths live on trees. Thus, if dark colored moths are able to survive, they might be living in habitat which could make them untraceable. Hence, it is obvious to say that dark colored moths are living on dark trees. Also the light colored moths are living on dark trees and this is the reason why they are easily identified and killed by the predators.

Thus, option D is correct

Intensely biosynthetic secretory protein cells such as neurons would be expected to have greater amounts of _________ than other

Rus_ich [418]

AnsweR:

Rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Explanation:

The endoplasmic reticulum is a member of the endomembrane system and is present as a continuation of the nuclear membrane. They are divided into the rough endoplasmic reticulum and smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes on its surface and is responsible for the synthesis of secretory proteins. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum synthesize lipids.

Therefore cells that intensely biosynthesize secretory proteins like neurons, white blood cells have a greater amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum than another cell of the body.

Which of the following best describes a marine climate?

Drupady [299]

Marine climate tend to has warm winters and cool summers.
Regions with marine climate mostly located in a region with low elevation. Regions with low elevation tend to have higher temperature, but the existence of water near that region even out the temperature which resulted in moderate level of temperature all year long.

A) In the Dunker population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.3 and the frequency of i allele is 0.4. In the general population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.1 and the frequency of i allele is 0.5.

If:
$I^{A}$ - the frequency of IA allele
 $I^{B}$ - the frequency of IB allele
 $i$ - the frequency of i allele

Then:
 $I^{A} I^{A}$ + $I^{A} i$ - the frequency of individuals with A blood type
 $I^{B} I^{B}$ + $I^{B} i$ - the frequency of individuals with B blood type
 $ii$ - the frequency of individuals with O blood type

Let's first take a look on the Dunker population:
$I^{A} = 0.3$
$ii=0.16
$

Since there is only one possible genotype for O individuals - ii - the frequency of the allele i is square root of the frequency of O individuals:
 $i= \sqrt{ii}$
⇒ $i = \sqrt{0.16}$
⇒ $i=0.4$

Now, we have the frequencies of two alleles ( $I^{A}$ and $i$ ). To calculate the frequency of $I^{B}$ allele, we will use the formula:
 $I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1-0.3-0.4$
⇒ $I^{B} = 0.3$

Now, in the general population:
$I^{A} = 0.4$
$ii=0.25$

Similarly to the work for the Dunker population:
 $i= \sqrt{ii}$
⇒ $i = \sqrt{0.25}$
⇒ $i=0.5$

$I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1-0.4-0.5$
⇒ $I^{B} = 0.1$


b) A founder effect is a result of geographical separation of a few individuals from the original population. Those founding individuals will form a new population. The Dunker population was not only geographically separated, but also genetically. The group interbreeding was present resulting in increasing those allele frequencies that were the most common in the founding population. In this case, the most individuals from the founding population had B blood type.
