Microevolution refers to evolution at or below the species level.

Microevolution is the change in gene frequency that takes place over time within a species or population. Microevolution is usually observed over a relatively short amount of time and it occurs as a result of four different processes which include gene flow, genetic drift, selection (natural and artificial), and mutation.

Although selection operates against deleterious alleles in populations, they are rarely lost from these populations. For example
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Deleterious alleles appear sporadically in a population

Explanation:

A population with a deleterious allele will have no or few individuals that have the ability to pass along these traits. These alleles appear less in a population because of selective pressure but they are not always absent. The alleles appear less often but are are not always passed on and the others that are genetically fit are able to pass along their genes. The reason the population equilibrium is not zero is because these alleles do appear but they are not necessarily passed along. These individuals may not be able to reproduce or reach the age of reproduction.

Deleterious alleles appear more often, making individuals less fit genetically, i.e. they pass fewer copies of their genes to future generations. Put another way, natural selection purges the deleterious alleles.

Why is it impossible for male calico cats to exist
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

genetics

Explanation:

calico cats must also inherit a gene unrelated to the X and Y chromosomes that codes for white fur. Because male cats have one X chromosome with code for black or orange and one Y chromosome with no color genes, they cannot technically be calico. About one in every 3,000 calico cats is born a male, and, unfortunately, don't live as long as female calicos due to their genetic abnormalities. XXY Syndrome renders male calicos sterile and can be the root cause of many other health problems

Does the oxygen that exits photosynthesis enter as CO2? Explain.
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Plants extract CO2 from the air and also use sunlight and water as the reactants of the process photosynthesis. Photosynthesis then produces Glucose and Oxygen. Oxygen is rid of the plant.

Which is true about water molecules?
rodikova [14]

Answer: C

Explanation: Water is a polar molecule because the electrons of the hydrogen atoms get "pulled" towards the electrons of the oxygen atom. Which is both positive and negative on opposite ends.

It could be B as well but, I believe it's C
