How can independent assortment help explain genetic diversity in humans?

Biology
1 answer:
NikAS [45]4 years ago
3 0

Independent assortment allows parent gametes to create a unique combination of characters in the offspring and recombine with another set of genes. If independent assortment does not occur, most likely the offsprings will inherit the characteristics of the parent gametes. They will remain as is.

Claytonia virginica is a woodland spring herb with flowers that vary from white to pale pink to bright pink. Slugs prefer to eat
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The slugs prefer pink flowers over the white ones. Thus, if the slugs are withdrawn from the population, the pink flowers are no more consumed and their number enhances. In a similar manner, the bees like to pollinate more pink flowers in comparison to the white ones.  

Thus, again, the pink flowers are getting pollinated in huge concentrations. Thus, the fruits and seeds are set and they produce another generation of pink flowers. Ultimately, there would be more pink flowers in the region in comparison to the white ones as the slugs that used to consume them, are also withdrawn.  

Earlier, both the numbers of pink and white flowers would remain steady as even though only some of the bees were pollinating white flowers, they were not getting consumed by the slugs. This had maintained a balance between the number of pink and white flowers. Thus, the number of pink flowers would increase with time if the slugs are removed.

Carbohydrates must be consumed every 3 to 4 hours to prevent depletion of the glucose in our blood.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: option B) False

Explanation:

The body relies on SEVERAL sources for its energy or glucose supply.

Firstly, understand that Glucose could be supplied from the following:

Glycogenolysis (Glycogen break down induced by Glucagon)

Amino acids metabolism (once amine group is removed)

Fatty acid oxidation.

All of the pathways mentioned can directly or indirectly yeild GLUCOSE, thus making it UNNECESSARY for Carbohydrate meals to be consumed every 3 to 4 hours.

Therefore, the answer is False

Long necks make it easier for giraffes to reach leaves high on trees, while also making them better fighters in "neck wrestling"
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

c. Directional selection

Explanation:

Directional selection is a type of natural selection that occurs when selective pressure favors one extreme phenotype over any other phenotype existing in a population. Only one extreme phenotype is favored over time.

A good example of directional selection is the natural selection that occurs in giraffes, where alleles for long necks were favored against alleles for short necks as a result of selection pressure among the different phenotypes. Over time, giraffes having long necks dominated the population as the distribution of length of neck shifts towards the phenotype for long necks.
