It appears that "hidden genetic variation" is responsible forallowing selection to move the average value of a traitbeyond the r

ange of values that the trait displayed in theinitial population. What explicitly, do we mean by "hiddengenetic variation" (where is it hidden?) and by what meanscan such hidden genetic variation be expressed so thatselection can act upon it?

Answer:

Selection may be defined as the process of selecting the more favorable species than the less favored one and can adapt in the environment. The selection increase the chances of survival of the organism.

The genetic variation hidden means the variation is not visible in the population and present in the form of heterozygotes in the population. This genetic variation can be expressed by the recombination of the heterozygotes in the population.

Why can food chains
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

A. Because energy is lost at every level.

Explanation:

energy decreases as it travels from lower levels to upper levels--which is a logical observation you could make.

Think of it like this--if a fish eats a small organism, it will then spend some of the energy obtained from the organism swimming around--so when a larger fish eats our fish, the energy from the original organism will already be partially lost (from our fish swimming around).

This means that when this pattern continues over multiple levels, we keep losing energy--which limits the environment's capacity for organisms to survive.

Hope this helps, have a lovely day :)

What is electrophoresis? Why does it allow scientists to separate pieces of DNA?
attashe74 [19]
Genetic fingerprinting – the analysis of DNA in order to identify the individual from which the DNA was taken to establish the genetic relatedness of individuals. It is now commonly used in forensic science (for example to identify someone from a blood sample) and to determine whether individuals of endangered species in captivity have been bred or captured from the wild. 
<span>•DNA sequencing – the determination of the precise sequence of nucleotides in a sample of DNA or even a whole genome e.g. the Human Genome Project. </span>

<span>The process of electrophoresis: </span>
<span>DNA is chopped, close to the VNTR regions, into fragments using restriction enzymes. The DNA fragments are placed on the agarose gel and a direct current is applied continuously to the gel. The DNA fragments are attracted to the anode. The shorter the fragment, the faster it moves. </span>
<span>The fragments are transferred onto an absorbent paper placed on top of the gel. The paper is heated to separate the 2 strands in each DNA molecule. Complementary probes which have a radioactive phosphorus isotope are and this pair up with the DNA strands. The paper is placed on an X-ray film and the film goes dark due to radiation emitted by the probes. Now we end up with a pattern of dark stripes on the film matching the positions reached by the fragments in the agarose gel.</span>
