6 0

Answer: Option B.

Obese and over eating

Explanation:

A leptin deficient move would be obese and overeating because leptin is an hormone produced by fat cells that decrease appetite and when it is deficient in the body,the body assumes that there is no enough fat in the body and it send signals for intense hunger and overeating or uncontrollable eating of food which result in accumulation of fats, there by resulting in obesity.

In the peppered moth scenarios what is the variation? And the selection?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Variation is number of alleles for the wing color of the peppered moths. The wing color ranges from pure white to pure back.

Selection pressure is predation by birds.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, white-winged peppered moths had a large allelic frequency in the population compared to black-winged peppered moths. However, when the environment changed due to soot produced by industries (making the environment darker) white-winged peppered moths reduced while that of black moths increased.

This is because black moths were able to blend in and camouflage in the dark environment than white-winged peppered moths that stood out to their predators. Black moths, therefore, had an increased chance of reaching adulthood and passing their genes to the next generation. This increased the allelic frequency of black-winged peppered while that of white-winged moths reduced in the population.

Which 2 age classes of deer are most affected by habitat quality (limiting factors)?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Additionally, see how survival of younger deer (fawns and yearlings) is reduced. Younger deer are the most sensitive to habitat quality and environmental events, thus reproduction and survival of fawns and yearlings can be a good indicator of habitat quality, or deer density relative to carrying capacity.

Gene flow or migration is the transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another. Select the combination of facts that
Montano1993 [528]

The correct answer to this question is B. Some members of the Fugate family had a genetic condition called methemoglobinemia, that gave a blue color to their skin. The gene causing this disease is an autosomal recessive gene, so to have this condition you need to be homozygotes for this recessive gene. Gene flow was prevalent in the Fugate family since not all of the children had blue complexion, but only four of them. The three children that did not have blue complexion, had the dominant allele, probably through gene migration from another population nearby. Also, since it is easier nowadays to travel, two separate populations could meet more easily. This increases the incidence of gene flow and explains the reduction of the occurrence of the condition.
