Hearing loss that occurs as a function of age is called presbycusis.
In presbycusis, the patient will lose the ability to hear the higher frequency of sound.
Anosmia is losing the ability to smell. Presbyopia is vision loss that occurs as a function of age.
Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>
Explanation:
Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.
A dwarf is a recessive trait. In order for the plant to be shorter, it would have to have 2 recessive alleles. The plant is also purebread so it wont contain the tall allele. The gametes that are possible are tt.
The doctor uses an EEG or also known as
Electroencephalography, this is used to record the activity of the brain,
electrically. This will help the doctor make a proper diagnosis of Ronald even
if he’s sleeping and to view what type of disorder he has with the given
results.
Explanation:
The community may enter primary succession.
Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:
- colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary succession)
- becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
- there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)
The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.
Like the harvested climax forest, secondary communities do not begin with the removal of soil and all biological life; other species, may be more suited to the altered conditions and begin to modify the area creating a new community.
However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.
