Genetic drift is the change in the gene pool

Explanation:

Both micro and macro evolution depends on processes like natural selection, genetic drift, speciation etc.  

Genetic drift is the variations caused in the gene pool due to increase or decrease of alleles over time.

The variations in the phenotypes or traits of the fishes in the net are due to evolutionary adaptations developed over generations. The advantage of a dark color in differential reproduction and survival would have made to pass the dark color to the offsprings in each generation by making it the dominant allele.

Dark color helps the fishes to hide from their predators and also to attract their mates. Due to these reasons, the gene frequency of dark color becomes high and will cause an overall genetic drift in that species of fish.

You are looking through a microscope and see that a teraf has formed. which phase of meiosis is in the cell in?
melomori [17]

The correct answer of the given question above would be Meiosis-Prophase I. When you are looking at a cell  through a microscope and see that a tetrad has formed, the phase of meiosis that the cell is in is in the Prophase I. This is when homologous chromosomes pair with one another to form tetrads. Crossing over occurs. Hope this answer helps.

Two competing hypotheses to account for the increase in the number of Hox genes from the last common ancestor of bilaterians to
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The duplication of a cluster of four Hox genes is equally likely as the duplication of a single Hox gene.

Explanation:

This comes from the definition of the parsimony principle, which is the action of choosing the simplest scientific explanation fitting the given evidence, meaning that all other elements are equal when evaluating the hypothesis. In biology the best hypothesis is the one that requires the fewest evolutionary changes.

Since three independent duplications of an individual Hox gene is in  evolutionary terms, more complex than a single duplication or a cluster, then that hypothesis would be the most parsimonious.

Krill in this food web is the primary consumer. Since the producer of the food web is the phytoplankton. Removing them from the food chain cuts the supply of food for secondary consumers such as seals, and whales. This disrupts the whole Antartic ecosystem since there will be a large amount of phytoplankton but not enough food for secondary consumers. This because secondary consumers are not able to eat phytoplankton due to their microscopic size. Only krill are able to feed on them and have the maximum energy gain from them.
