Shawna's work on her blog about cars would be best described as
unreliable. Although speaking outside of a scientific context, she is
very knowledgable about cars, it is also important to consider that all
of her information comes either from second-hand sources, or from
opinions that she personally holds, which is not the basis for reliable
information.
Answer: False
The variations in expression depends on how genes code for proteins
that would specify whether it will be dominant or recessive allele. Within a population, there may be a number of
alleles for a given gene and these differences
can cause variations in the protein that is produced. The change in protein
expression affect traits due to the variations in protein activity or
expression that produce different phenotypes.
<span>Moreover, individuals that have copies of
different alleles are known as heterozygous
and individuals that have two copies of the same
allele are referred to a homozygous. The expression patterns observed in
inheritance will depend on whether the allele is found on an autosomal
chromosome or a sex chromosome, and on whether the allele is dominant or recessive.</span>
Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) as the light colored moths were seen and eaten, the allele for dark colour became more prevalent in the population.</em>
Explanation:
The process of natural selection tends to favour those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment. Evolution changes the allele frequencies of a population over time depending on the traits favoured by natural selection.
Before the industrial revolution, the colour of the trees was lighter and hence, the light coloured moths were better adapted to such environments as they could hide from predation. After the industrial revolution, the colour of the woods of trees became darker. The light coloured moths were no more able to hide from their predators and hence their population declined.
Mammal I’m not sure sorryyyy
