Answer:

If the original finches that had been blown over to the Galápagos from South America had already been genetically different from the parental population of South American finches, even before adapting to the Galápagos, this would have been an example of

E) both the first and third of these.

Explanation:

Genetic drift was the process of changing of allele frequencies over generations in a random fashion.

Founder effect is closely linked with the genetic drift. In this case, a few individuals of the original population start a new colony isolated from the other members of the species.

A founder effect happens when a new colony started from few members of the original population. The small size of population means that the colony may have a small variation of the genes in the original population.

A founder effect event happens when a small group of individuals was separated from the rest of the population, whereas a bottleneck effect occurs when most of the population is destroyed.

Answer:

a. Mastication process and formation of bolus in the oral cavity

b. The contraction in the stomach breaks the food down into smaller pieces. These pieces are then moved to the small intestine.

c. In the small intestine, food particles are broken down into nutrients, fat, protein and carbohydrates which are absorbed into the bloodstream.

Explanation:

a. First step of digestive system functioning is the mastication process and formation of bolus in the oral cavity.

b. The contraction in stomach, with the help of digestive enzymes and acids, break the food down into smaller pieces. The small pieces of food are then released into the first part of the small intestine (duodenum).

c. In the small intestine, two enzymes released from pancreas and gall bladder break down the food particles into fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Thereon, nutrients and carbohydrates, proteins and fats are absorbed into the bloodstream.

xxMikexx [17]

The correct answer is:

A. Will have a intermediate trait 3. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined incompletely dominant trait

B. Will refuse glucose 2. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined dominant trait

C. Have a mix of traits depending on experience 4. Glucose aversion is a learned behavior

D. Will accept glucose 1. Glucose aversion is a genetically-determined recessive trait

If we put it simple and say that for example glucose aversion is genetically determinated, with the genotype AA and eating glucose with the genotype aa. The offspring will have Aa genotype (heterozygous). Depending on which phenotype is expressed in heterozygous we can conclude whether the trait is dominant or recessive or due to earned behavior.
