Common examples of this would be if you place your hand in extremely warm or cold water, and an immediate response of pulling out of the water or any fluid, is an example of this extreme response, other responses are what is done in everyday, like being thirsty or hungry etc.
These behaviours are shared by all organisms even the most simple ones.
<span>Maggie's training regimen may put her at risk to develop secondary amenorrhea. While amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation, secondary amenorrhea is the absence of the menstrual cycle in females who have started menstruating (having had at least one cycle) and then stop menstruating for a period longer than three months. Secondary amenorrhea occurs in times of extreme stress or weight loss (such as anorexia). Female soldiers have experienced secondary amenorrhea when they have gone to war or have become prisoners of war. Hormone shots, extreme weight gain, birth control, and certain medications also cause the condition.</span>
Assuming purple is dominant, the genotypes of the parents must be Pp and pp, such that half the progeny have the dominant allele (P_) and half have the recessive phenotype (pp) 25% possibility of white-flowered plant life and 75% possibility of pink ones
Answer:
Distinct mechanisms are used by bacteria in order to transfer the gene from one bacteria to another. These are transformation, transduction, and conjugation. Transformation refers to the process of uptaking extracellular DNA by the recipient of the other bacterial cell.
In the process of transduction, the donor DNA gets packed within the bacteriophage and infects the recipient bacteria. In the process of conjugation, the genetic substance is transferred by the donor bacteria to the recipient via the process of mating.
a. Of all these three mechanisms, transformation is the process that exhibits a broad range and can be easily performed in the lab. As in the process, there is a slight chance of rejection or failure due to direct compatibility between the bacteria.
b. While the narrowest broad range is found in the process of conjugation, as in order to transfer the genetic substance between the two bacterial species, there should be a similarity between the two species so that they can mate and exchange the genetic substance in between them.
The correct answer is stabilising selection. This is selection that favours an average trait value. It is thought that this sort of selection is very common as traits among most animals do not appear to change drastically over time. Stabilising selection selects against the extreme traits, and leads to a decrease in genetic diversity by favouring the average phenotypes.
