When dark-colored fur gives mice a 1% competitive advantage and 1% of the population begins with dark fur, in about 1,000 years,

95% of the population will have dark fur. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Dark-colored rock pocket mice, in this population, have fewer offspring than light-colored rock pocket mice.
B. If dark-colored rock pocket mice had a competitive advantage of 0.1%, it would take more than 1,000 years for 95% of the population to have dark fur.
C. If dark-colored mice had a competitive advantage of 5%, it would take more than 1,000 years for 95% of the population to have black fur.
D. If dark-colored mice had a competitive advantage of 10%, it would take more than 1,000 years for 95% of the population to have black fur

Answer:

"If dark-colored rock pocket mice had a competitive advantage of 0.1%, it would take longer for 95% of the population to have dark fur." the statement is true

Explanation:

The greater effect of the crossing over is basically to spread the variation through the population. This is the basic difference even between sexual and non sexual mode of reproduction.The offspring produced might get get more variety when compared to the parent.  From this the genetic recombination happens. This also often lead to the intrachromosomal mixing that takes place between the alleles and the homologous pair. This is the exchange of the chromosome segments among the non sister chromatids in meiosis.

Predict how doubling the length of the sides of a cube-shaped cell would affect
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Increasing the size of the cube-shaped cell increases the volume. However, the surface area-to-volume ratio decreases. This means that the simple diffusion would take more time distribute nutrients across the cell (and even in the eliminate waste). It would need bulk transport such as vesicle transport, otherwise cell activities would slow down.

Which best describes a way that the periodic table is arranged?
Sveta_85 [38]
Among the ones listed above, the statement that best describes the way that the periodic table is arranged is "<span>The nonmetals are grouped together, which the exception of hydrogen.</span>" It can be seen that all of the nonmetals are placed on the far right of the periodic table except for hydrogen. They do not belong in a single column and are separated from the metals by the metalloids. Moreover, the elements are placed in the periodic table in increasing atomic number.

The purple spots on colorless background of corn kernels observed by barbara mcclintock were the result of _______.
vitfil [10]

The purple spots on the colorless background of corn kernels observed by Barbara McClintock were the result of the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.

<h3>What are the genetic elements found in corn?</h3>
  • A transposable element is removed from one spot in the DNA and inserted into a different site in the DNA during the process of genetic transposition, which allows genes to shift their location on chromosomes.
  • The first recognized genetic instability was caused by genetic transposition.
  • The size of the tissue patch displaying the reversion phenotype increases as a reversion event happens earlier in the kernel development.
  • Barbara McClintock saw purple dots on maize kernels with an otherwise colorless background.
  • These spots were caused by the Ds components of the color gene being transposed.
  • The wild-type (purple) phenotype manifests itself in cells where Ds from the color gene "C" sequence has been lost.

Hence, Barbara McClintock discovered purple patches on the colorless backdrop of maize kernels due to the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.

Can someone pls help me<br>​
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

16. mitochondria

17. lysosomes

18. smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

19. golgi body

20. golgi complex

Explanation:

16. Mitochondria are double membrane-bound cell organelles responsible for the supply and storage of energy for the cell

17.  While cells mainly use lysosomes to dispose of trash. Sometimes they simply hang onto their trash, performing the cellular equivalent of sweeping it under the rug

18. Are the storage organelle, associated with the production of lipids, steroids, and also responsible for detoxifying the cell.

19.  The Golgi body is the sorting organelle of the cell. Proteins are transported from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) to the Golgi.

20. is responsible for sorting and correctly shipping the proteins produce the ER. Just like our postal packages, which should have a correct shipping address, the proteins produced in the ER should be correctly sent to their respective address. It is a very important step in protein synthesis.
