I think the answer is b. wavelength (:
Answer:
The correct answer is - option C.
Explanation:
CFTR is a short form of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein which is caused by a recessive mutation in this protein. This mutation results in the accumulation of mucus in secretory organs.
As the disease is a recessive disease, for the mutant phenotype to expressed both copies of the allele required to be recessive.
The mother is negative for the CFTR. Hence, she will not transfer the mutant allele to her child So, the child would have a wild-type phenotype even if the father having two copies of recessive allele.
Thus, the correct answer is - option C.
Answer:
B. the combination of modern genetics and Darwinism.
Explanation:
The modern synthesis refers to the concept which combined the theory of inheritance by Mendel and theory of evolution by Charles Darwin. The theory also used the concept of Theory of germplasm.
The modern synthesis concept came in the early 20th century when the studies were going on Mendel's theory and the evolutionary aspects. The concept led to the formation of new concepts like the macroevolution, microevolution and the evolution affected by mutation of genes.
Thus, Option-B is correct.
Answer:
One key way by which species evolve over time in response to changes in environmental conditions is adaptation by natural selection acting over generations. Characteristics that aid in effective survival and reproduction in the new environment grow more prevalent, while those that do not become less prevalent.
