Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Chlorophyll a- violet blue

Chlorophyll b - orange red

Carotenoids- green yellow

Explanation:

The three major plant pigments are chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoids.

Various pigments are identified by their specific pattern of wavelength absorption in the spectrum of visible light. Chlorophyll a absorbs light in the violet-blue region, while chlorophyll b absorbs orange-red light. Chlorophyll a and b reflects or transmits green light hence they appear green. Carotenoids absorb light in the green - yellow region hence they reflect longer yellow, red, and orange light.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population I

Explanation:

Population I -

Total population - 670

Brown birds - 603

Red birds - 67

Population II

Total population - 100

Brown birds - 90

Red birds - 10

Population III

Total population - 30

Brown birds - 27

Red birds - 3

Frequency of red birds in population I

\frac{67}{670} = 0.1

Frequency of red birds in population II

\frac{10}{90} = 0.11

Frequency of red birds in population III

\frac{3}{30} = 0.1

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II and it will be equal to \sqrt{0.11} = 0.33 as compared to 0.31 in case of population I and III

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect because of smaller population size

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population that has highest  brown individual , i.e population I
