Answer:
The flow of individuals in and out of a population introduces new alleles and increases genetic variation within that population. Mutations are changes to an organism's DNA that create diversity within a population by introducing new alleles.
Explanation:
An alternation of generations for plants include a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte.
DNA contains the genetic material and comes from both the parents
Answer:
12:3:1
Explanation:
<em>The typical F2 ratio in cases of dominant epistasis is 12:3:1.</em>
<u>The epistasis is a form of gene interaction in which an allele in one locus interacts with and modifies the effects of alleles in another locus</u>. There are different types of epistasis depending on the type of alleles that are interacting. These include:
- Dominant/simple epistasis: Here, a dominant allele on one locus suppresses the expression of both alleles on another locus irrespective of whether they are dominant or recessive. Instead of the Mendelian dihybrid F2 ratio of 9:3:3:1, what is obtained is 12:3:1. Examples of this type of gene interaction are found in seed coat color in barley, skin color in mice, etc.
- Other types of epistasis include <em>recessive epistasis (9:3:4), dominant inhibitory epistasis (13:3), duplicate recessive epistasis (9:7), duplicate dominant epistasis (15:1), and polymeric gene interaction (9:6:1).</em>
The correct answer is False. The correct word is Epidemic and not resistance.
An abrupt decrease in a host immunity of a pathogen or newly emerging novel pathogen that is found in the endemic equilibrium with the exceeded transmission threshold is where an epidemic occurs.
