Which statement best explains the relationship between HbS allele frequency and malaria endemicity in Africa? When an area is ma
NNADVOKAT [17]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

When an area is holoendemic, the HbS allele frequency is between 0.52 and 4.04.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>HbS allele is the sickle cell hemoglobin allele that provides immunity to malaria. This is because people with the sickle cell allele have a selective advantage in areas where there is a high incidence of malaria.</u></em>
  • Therefore, natural selection will favor the population with HbS allele in a Malaria holoendemic (most individuals are infected) region. The HbS allele frequency in this population is expected to be high.
  • After malaria is cured, the frequency of the HbS allele should decrease in regions with a lot of mosquitoes because having one copy of the HbS allele will no longer be advantageous in these regions.

A scientist separates a population of lizards into two groups. what would most likely increase the rate of speciation in this po
eimsori [14]
<span>If the population is separated long enough, this means that random sampling in mating and reproduction, that occurred in the initial population has been restricted</span><span>. The two population will, therefore, adapt to their local environments and become reproductively isolated with time. After long periods of time, the two lizards population will have different alleles and will not be able to mate and produce viable offsprings hence will have speciated.</span>
