Answer/Explanation:
Density-dependent limiting factors are non living and biotic factors that affect the size and growth of a population based on the population density, while density-independent limiting factors are those factors that do not depend on the density of a population before they can have an effect on the growth and size of the population.
Examples of density-dependent limiting factors are predation, disease, Parasitism, competition. These rely on the density of a population in order to affect the growth and size of a population.
On the other hand, examples of density-independent limiting factors are pollution, flood, temperature.
Answer:The answer is A
Explanation:I have had the question before
What we can say about the frequency of x-linked recessive traits is that the frequency of the allele for the recessive x-linked traits is assumed to be equal to the proportion of males with the recessive phenotype.
Some of the conditions that must be met for a population or an allele to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:
1. The population must be very large.
2. There must be no migration and population must be isolated.
3. There must be no mutations.
4. There must be random mating, which means there are no mating preferences.
So, a population will not be at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium if it is small, or there are mutations, which is not mentioned, but mutations are expected to occur. Also, although there is a large mountain, skunks can migrate to some other area of a woodland. So, probable mutations and migrations suggest that the population is not at <span>Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium.</span>
