Unlike natural selection, genetic drift does not depend on an allele's beneficial or harmful effects. Instead, drift changes allele frequencies purely by chance, as random subsets of individuals (and the gametes of those individuals) are sampled to produce the next generation.
The carbon attached to the alpha carboxyl and the alpha amino group is known as the alpha carbon. 2. All amino acids except glycine have four different groups attached to the alpha carbon. As a result, all amino acids have at least one asymmetric center (the alpha carbon).
the population goes down
Explanation:
Large algal beds die, depriving marine iguanas, turtles and many fish of their staple diet. Once weakened, strong swells and sea urchins break apart complex coral habitats that sustain diverse species changing the environment.
