A high level of gene flow into a population increases genetic diversity in a population. A high level of gene flow out of a population decreases genetic diversity in a population. Genetic drift is the change in allele frequencies due to "sampling error" factors. Typically, genetic drift has the biggest impact on small populations.
Gene flow (or gene migration) is a mechanism of evolution (change the allele frequencies) which transfers genetic variation among populations due to migration. High level of gene flow decreases the genetic differentiation between the two populations.
Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution that acts by chance (“sampling error”) often when a population is reduced in size by a natural disaster (bottleneck effect) or when a small group leaves the main population and forms a colony (founder effect).
Answer:
A) the pressure of Earth's crust upon Earth's mantle
Answer:
<u><em>C. DNA from the S bacteria is necessary for bacterial transformation to occur.</em></u>
Explanation:
These series of experiments determined that DNA is the genetic material which gives rise to a particular type of cell. As we can see, the S bacteria with degraded proteins were able to grow when the proteins and RNA were degraded. But they were not able to grow when their DNA was degraded. This experiment proved that proteins or RNA are not the genetic material, rather DNA is the material related to inheritance.
Answer:
a device for collecting and measuring rain as it falls
Answer:
Xiao can use these structures to create a similarity matrix that enables to differentiate between synapomorphies and homoplasies
.
Explanation:
A synapomorphy is a trait that has been inherited from the same ancestor, this trait enables to establish a relation of homology between two or more species; while a homoplasy is an analog structure that doesn't have homology.
