A genotype 'aa' leads to albinism in peacocks. This condition is very rarely found in nature, compared to the normal genotype, '

AA', and 'Aa'; as they can be easy prey to their predators and are unable to attract mates.Which types of selection forces act here?

Answer:

Sexual selection.

Explanation:

Sexual selection may be defined as the mode of natural selection in which the organism of one sex chose mate of the other sex and fight for the mating. The organism that can mate have higher chances of reproductive success than other individual of the population.

The condition of albinism in peacock, reduces the chances of successful mating as it is unable to attract the mates of opposite sex. The peacock with genotype AA and Aa has higher chances of mate attraction and successful reproduction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Why are ribonucleoside triphosphates the monomers required for rna synthesis rather than ribonucleoside monophosphates?
torisob [31]

Answer:

The phosphates provide energy for the bond between each nucleotide.

Explanation:

When each nucleotide is being bound, the two extra phosphates provide the energy needed for it to form the bind between each nucleotide that's being added to the RNA. Without this energy, the RNA wouldn't be able to form due to the lack of enough energy.

"Genetic power is far more potent than atomic power. And it will be in everyone's hands. It will be in kits for backyard gardene
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

These facts are true and disturbing

Explanation:

Genetics is a discipline that has advanced incredibly in the last years. For example, by using the versatile CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system, we are now able to insert literally any sequence into a given genome in vivo. The CRISPR-Cas9 is a technology that can be used in a regular molecular biology laboratory. It is expected this technique will enable in the near future to correct genetic disorders that have plagued mankind since times immemorial. However, genomic technologies like that could be used by malignant persons to hurt innocent people, thereby it is imperative that countries regulate their use.

Why is gmo modification different for plants and animals
morpeh [17]

In animals, a gene is inserted into an embryo, modifying the genome to manufacture the product of this new gene. In plants, a gene is injected into a single cell that is grown from a seed into a plant. This plant expresses the new gene in all its cells. The difference between GM and selective breeding.

How does natural selection lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria? ​
choli [55]

Answer:

Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.

Survival of the Fittest (Natural Selection):

When bacteria are initially exposed to an antibiotic, those most susceptible to the antibiotic will die quickly, leaving any surviving bacteria to pass on their resistant features to succeeding generations.
