If a mutation introduces a new skin color in a lizard population, which factor might determine whether the frequency of the new

allele will increase
Biology

The answer is: It will depend whether this mutation will make those lizard more fit than the others.


Genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. <span>Fitness describes a reproductive success of an individual. For example, there are green lizards in a population. After a mutation, there are now some yellow lizards in population. If a color affects the reproductive success, for example, yellow lizards will have more offspring, and their allele will be inherited. So, the frequency of the new allele will increase.</span>

nitrogen is included in the makeup of protein and nucleic acid. also it is often the limiting nutrient for what type of organism
Llana [10]

Answer:

Despite its abundance in the atmosphere, nitrogen is often the most limiting nutrient for plant growth. This problem occurs because most plants can only take up nitrogen in two solid forms: ammonium ion (NH4+ ) and the ion nitrate (NO3- ).

Explanation:

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- Aromatization hypothesis

Explanation:

Traditionally it was believed that giving testosterone to the human makes the brain masculine and its effect depends on the estrogen receptors.

The testosterone hormone (androgen) produced from the testis enters the brain which there gets converted to  17-β estradiol (E2) by aromatase enzyme which acts on the estrogen receptors and develops the rodent brain.

Since the pathway involves the enzyme aromatase, therefore, aromatization hypothesis is the correct answer.

How might an RNA-based genome result in an increased infection rate? What are some potential complications to this infection str
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

I think the question is "How might an RNA-based genome results display an increased in infection rate?" because current statement doesn't convey a message clearly.

Explanation:

To answer this question, we need to understand first that what is gene expression. Gene expression is a process in which genetic information is transcribed first to RNA and then into proteins. During transcription stage, only active genes would be transcribed to RNA and all other DNA material don't transcribe at all. Now, if there is an infection, host cell would express only those genes which would actively take part in the defense mechanism, e.g. R-genes, genes involved in production of reactive oxygen species, etc. Hence, to monitor the infection rate, we will look at the RNA-based genome. To do this, we will extract the total RNA and then would sequence it. Then we will annotate the genes and check the relative abundance (differential expression). Finally, we would have a clear that these genes were active against the infection. By doing temporal sampling and sequencing, we would be able to measure the rate as well.

For the second part, potential complications that could arise in doing analysis is the lower amount of RNA, or rapid degradation of RNA in case of presence of RNAses. RNA can be degraded easily at room temperature.
