Answer: The correct answer for the given mechanisms influencing gene pool are the mechanisms of evolutionary change, which are described as follows-

1) Gene Flow

- It is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.

-A zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.

2) Natural Selection

- A mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.

-Competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.

3) Mutation

- Permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.

-The DNA of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.

4) Genetic Drift - It is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.    

-A grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.

When referring to cell division, oncogenes are most like ________ while tumor suppressor genes are most like ________. the brake
Inga [223]

Oncogenes are most like the gas pedal on a car, while tumor suppressor genes are most like the brakes on a car. Oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are mutated in cancer cells.

Oncogenes are genes overexpressed in cells in which they should not be expressed, thereby leading to cancer.

Some examples of oncogenes are growth factors such as, for example, the  Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or Epidermal growth factor (EGF).

Conversely, tumor suppressor genes are genes that act to regulate cell division and replication, thereby their inactivation also leads to cancer.

A well-known example of a tumor suppressor gene is the p53 gene that acts to control cell division and apoptosis (programmed cell death).

Confessions taken after lengthy interrogations during incommunicado detention have been considered involuntary. True or False?
Vesna [10]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Confessions which are taken after the lengthy interrogations during the incommunicado detention have been considered as involuntary.

This is because in this case the person is put into much pressure that his only wish is to escape of the situation anyhow.

The concerned person is not allowed to meet his family, interdependent physician and he is not even allowed to tell any body about his arrest.

In this case the confessions taken are not considered voluntary.
