Gene flow and genetic drift both affect allele frequencies in a population. A high level of gene flow into a population genetic

A high level of gene flow into a population increases genetic diversity in a population. A high level of gene flow out of a population decreases genetic diversity in a population. Genetic drift is the change in allele frequencies due to "sampling error" factors. Typically, genetic drift has the biggest impact on small populations.

Gene flow (or gene migration) is a mechanism of evolution (change the allele frequencies) which transfers genetic variation among populations due to migration. High level of gene flow decreases the genetic differentiation between the two populations.

Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution that acts by chance (“sampling error”) often when a population is reduced in size by a natural disaster (bottleneck effect) or when a small group leaves the main population and forms a colony (founder effect).

11. If a single mutation turns off the growth of some pairs of legs within an organism, what's most likely affected?
Lana71 [14]
The answer is hox gene.

Hox genes are responsible for an embryo's body plan. They determine different body structures - legs, vertebrae, antennae, wings, depending on groups. Mutation in hox genes is serious mutation since it affects the early stages of embryo and consequently, normal development. If a mutation occurs in the hox gene for legs growth, the legs will not develop.

A small island is home to a unique population of land snails. This population was founded by 10 individuals that floated to the
vekshin1

Answer:

  • The Island population likely has fewer alleles-that is versions of genes-than the mainland population.

       A- Agree <u>B- Disagree</u>

  • Genetic drift is more pronounced in the island population than in the mainland population in these first few generations

       A- Agree <u>B- Disagree</u>

  • Some harmful traits may have become more common in the island population than in the mainland population

       <u>A- Agree</u>- B- Disagree

  • Biologist observed genetic drift but not evolution

       <u>A- Agree</u> B- Disagree

Explanation:

If there was genetic drift, then allele frequency either increased or decreased by chance, irrespective of natural selection that is irrespective to weather those alleles helped individuals survive in the island environment. In molecular genetic data, there are statistical signature in the  population variation that indicate weather selection or other processes occurred.

Which of the following statements about a prokaryotic cell is NOT true?
Gemiola [76]

The right option is; A. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus

''Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus'' is the statement about prokaryotic cells that is NOT true.

Prokaryotic cells are cells that lack a true nucleus and some other cell organelles. Prokaryotic cells are found in unicellular organisms called prokaryotes. Examples of prokaryotes are; Bacteria and Archaea. The components of prokaryotic cells include plasma membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, nucleoid, ribosomes, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Most of the prokaryotic’s DNA (genetic material) is located in a middle area of the cell (nucleoid), and it contains a single large loop known as a circular chromosome.
