hysical anthropologist Eva Hernandez visits a group of Yamomamo people in Venezuela and finds that only 3 individuals in a small

village of 85 people have blood type A. Her grandson, Alberto Hernandez, returns 45 years later and finds that no one in the village has type A blood. Which process of evolution is likely affecting this population?

Answer:

Genetic drift (sampling error)

Explanation:

According to the given information, the population under study has a small size and is more likely to be affected by genetic drift. Genetic drift refers to any chance event that leads to random changes in the allele frequencies of a population over time.

It may occur by sampling error that either makes the allele frequency 100% in the population or completely removes it from the population. Sampling error occurs quickly in the small population. The initial frequency of "blood type A" was 3/85= 0.035. Over the time period of 45 years, sampling error during gamete formation and random fertilization removed all the individuals with "blood type A" from the population and reduced its frequency to 0.

B. Green


Chlorophyll is found in and around the photosystems embedded in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts.

The chloroplasts are organelles found in eukaryotic algae. The chloroplasts in eukaryotic celss are contained in the cytoplasm together with other organelles.

<span>Since the chlorophyll is insided the chloroplast which is inside the cytoplasm, it is safe to say that the chlorophyll of the green algae is spread throughout the cytoplasm of its cells.</span>

Use the information below to answer the following question(s). In a survey, the rate of heavy smokers was reported as 270 per 10
Eddi Din [679]

The probability that neither of them is a heavy smoker is 0.53 or 53%

<h3>What is genetic probability?</h3>

Probability serves to mathematically estimate the possibility of events that happen by chance, that is, as a matter of luck.

In this case:

Probability that selected one is heavy smoker is:

p=270/1000=0.27

Number of individuals selected  is 2 and We know that:

P(X=x)=nc_x(1-p)^{n-x}(p)^x

We need to prove that X=0:

P(X=0)=nc_0(1-0.27)^{2-0}(0.27)^0

P=0.5329
