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.

How much force would is required to stop a 1200kg car in 2 seconds if the car is traveling at 22 m/s
Shalnov [3]
Force required = F = ?

mass of the car = m = 1200 kg

initial velocity of the car = Vi = 10 m/sec

final velocity of the car = 0

time required to stop the car = t = 20 sec

Using Newton`s 2nd law of motion;

F = ma ………………………(1)

as a = Vf - Vi / t , put this value in equation (1)

F = m ( Vf - Vi /t ) ………………(2)

F = 1200 ( 0 - 10 /20) = - 600 N

here Negative sign shows that external force is acting in opposite direction of the motion to bring it to rest.

we can also calculate this force by using the relation

Rate of change of momentum = net force acting on the object …………(3)

m Vf - m Vi / t = net force acting on the object

m (Vf - Vi / t) = F

1200 ( 0 - 10 /20) = - 600 N = F

so, net force acting on the object =F = - 600 N

When a germ cell undergoes meiosis, which event would MOST likely result in four aneuploid daughter
sveta [45]

Answer:

B. misalignment of the chromosomes during anaphase I

Explanation:

Aneuploidy refers to an error in the chromosomal number of a cell. This occurs when the chromosomes fail to separate equally into individual cells, a process called MEIOTIC NONDISJUNCTION. Meiotic disjunction can occur in either the anaphase stage of meiosis I or meiosis II, however, different outcomes are produced.

When chromosomes fail to separate at meiosis I, it results in two gametes that lack that particular chromosome (n-1) and two gametes with two copies of the chromosome (n+1). This means that the four daughter cells will have an incorrect number of chromosomes, hence, the misalignment of the chromosomes during anaphase I will result in four aneuploid daughter cells.
