Answer: Option B) phosphate; hydroxyl; 3'

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the phosphate group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the hydroxyl group attached to the 3'

carbon atom

Explanation:

For both RNA and DNA, chemical groups such as phosphate (PO3-) attaches to the 5' carbon of the pentose sugar (deoxyribose in DNA, ribose in RNA).

While hydroxyl group (OH) attaches to the 3' carbon atom of the pentose sugar.

Thus, a nucleic acid structure structure reveals a several repeating units of nucleotides where nitrogenous base links to a pentose sugar, who in turns is linked to phosphate group

Populations of the grasshopper Vandiemenella viatica possess different chromosomal fusions and inversions. Grasshoppers that are
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The options

a. New combinations of genes yielding genotypes of greater fitness

b. Few heterozygotes because of underdominance

c. Frequency-dependent selection, leading to fluctuations in fitness

d. Heterozygotes with greater fitness, owing to overdominance

e. A random assortment of genotypes because of genetic drift

The CORRECT ANSWER IS b.

b. Few heterozygotes because of under dominance

Explanation:

In genetics, underdominance (at times called "negative overdominance") is the opposite of overdominance.

It is the selection against the heterozygote, that leads to disruptive selection and divergent genotypes. It occurs in cases of inferior and reduced fitness (As in our case study, it is the different chromosomal fusions and inversions)

of the heterozygotic genotype to the dominant or recessive homozygotic genotype. It is unstable as it causes fixation of either allele.

Another example is the African butterfly species Pseudacraea eurytus, which makes use of Batesian mimicry to avoid predation. This species carries two alleles that gives a coloration that is alike to a different local butterfly species that is harmful to its predator. The butterflies who are heterozygous for this trait are observed to be intermediate in coloration and thus encounter an higher risk of predation and a decrease in the total fitness.
