Which of the following best explains how genetic recombination influences evolution?

Biology
1 answer:
Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct option is A. The genetic variation introduced during recombination provides new allelic combinations for natural selection to act upon.

Explanation:

Recombination will lead to more possibilities for allelic combinations. This will result in increase in the number  of genetic variations for a population.. The genetic variations in a population help the organisms to better adapt to different environmental conditions. If genetic variation is low for a population, then there are more chances for the population to become extinct or endangered when disasters occur. Many ecologists blame lack of genetic variation for extinction of different species.

rjkz [21]

If you have both parents with long ears and some of the offsprings have short ears, you can say both parents are heterozygous for this. Both have a dominant (long ear), and a recessive allele (short ear).

To prove this, you can draw a Punnett square, and you'll see the probabilities of the offsprings.

Assume a hawk eats five 20 gram birds and one 150 gram rabbit. In terms of biomass, did the
inna [77]

Answer: the rabbit

Explanation:

In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:

  • the total mass of the organisms within a community
  • the average masses per unit area

Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.

The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass
