How does genetic drift affect small populations differently than large populations?

Physics
1 answer:
dalvyx [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer/ Explanation:

In small populations, the relative effect of genetic drift is higher because deleterious alleles can become more frequent by chance, and less common alleles have a greater chance of being permanently lost. This reduces the genetic variation in the population.

Large populations are less likely to change quickly as a result of genetic drift, this is due to chance

Calculate the equivalent of 20 degrees Celsius in degrees Fahrenheit and Kelvin.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

68 °F, 293.15 K

Explanation:

Fahrenheit, Kelvin and Celsius are the different scales of temperature in which temperature is measured.

Given : T = 20°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

<u>T = (20 + 273.15) K = 293.15 K </u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(F) is shown below:

T (°F) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 32

So,

<u>T (°F) = (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68 °F</u>

A 4.4 nC charge exerts a repulsive force of 36 mN on a second charge which is located
zhenek [66]

The magnitude and sign of the second charge will be + 8.6241×10⁻¹⁹ C. The principal of the Columb's law is used in the given problem.

<h3>What is Columb's law?</h3>

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Charges that are similar repel each other, whereas charges that are diametrically opposed attract each other.

They will repel, moving in opposite directions at the same speed. Because the magnitude and nature of the charge are the same.

The given data in the problem is;

q₁  is the charge 1 = 4.4 nC = 4.4 ×10⁻⁹ C

F is the repulsive force = 36 mN =36 ×10⁶ N

d is the distance = 0.70 m

The Coulomb force is found as;

\rm F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\\ \rm 36\times 10^6 = \frac{9 \times 10^9 }{(0.7)^2} \times 4.4 \times 10^{-9} \times q_2\\\\\ q_2 = 8.6241  \times 10^{-19 } \ C

Hence, the magnitude and sign of the second charge will be + 8.6241×10⁻¹⁹ C.

The water in a river flows uniformly at a constant speed of 2.50 m/s between parallel banks 80.0 m apart. You are to deliver a p
NISA [10]

Answer:

a)  The swimmer should travel perpendicular to the bank to minimize the spent in getting to the other side.

b) 133.33 m

c) 53.13°

d) 106.67 m

Explanation:

a) The swimmer should travel perpendicular to the bank to minimize the spent in getting to the other side.

b) velocity = distance * time

Let the velocity of the swimmer be v_{s} = 1.5 m/s

The separation of the two sides of the river, d = 80 m

The time taken by the swimmer to get to the other end of the river bank,

t = \frac{d}{v_{s} }

t = 80/1.5

t = 53.33 s

The swimmer will be carried downstream by the river through a distance, s

Let the velocity of the river be v_{r} = 2.5 m/s

S = v_{r} t

S = 53.33 * 2.5

S = 133.33 m

c) To minimize the distance traveled by the swimmer, his resultant velocity must be perpendicular to the velocity of the swimmer relative to water

That is ,

cos \theta = \frac{v_{s} }{v_{r} } \\cos \theta = 1.5/2.5\\cos \theta = 0.6\\\theta = cos^{-1} 0.6\\\theta = 53.13^{0}

d) Downstream velocity of the swimmer, v_{y} = v_{s} sin \theta\\

v_{y} = 1.5 sin 53.13\\v_{y} = 1.2 m/s

The vertical displacement is given by, y = v_{y} t

80 = 1.2 t

t = 80/1.2

t = 66.67 s

the horizontal speed,

v_{x} = 2.5 - 1.5cos53.13\\v_{x} = 1.6 m/s

The downstream horizontal distance of the swimmer, x = v_{x} t

x = 1.6 * 66.67

x = 106.67 m
