Answer:
Look down!!! ;)
Explanation:
In a human karyotype, autosomes or “body chromosomes” (all of the non–sex chromosomes) are generally organized in approximate order of size from largest (chromosome 1) to smallest (chromosome 22). However, chromosome 21 is actually shorter than chromosome 22.
Hope this helps!! ;)
The common name of this organism is hydra.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hydra is a fresh water organism and belongs to the phylum Cnidarian. They have tentacles around their body that enables locomotion as well as protection from prey. Hydra has the ability of regeneration and the asexual mode of reproduction in hydra is budding.
In the budding process, a small bud develops in the parent body and the bud after maturation gets detached from the parent body and grows into a new individual. Sexual mode of reproduction is also found in hydra.
They're called Enzyme. They're made up of proteins. They act as a biological catalysts that can speed up chemical reaction. They have an active site that certain substrates binds into it and form a product. Enzyme works under optimum pH and temperature and the active sites are not changed unless denatured.
Answer:
The next generation average time to flowering will be 98 days.
Explanation:
Before answering the question, we need to know a few concepts.
- Artificial selection is the selecting practice of a specific group of organisms in a population -that carry the traits of interest- to be the parents of the following generations.
- Parental individuals carrying phenotypic values of interest are selected from the whole population. These parents interbreed, and a new generation is produced.
- The selection differential, SD, is the difference between the mean value of the trait in the population (X₀) and the mean value of the parents, (Xs). So,
SD = Xs - X₀
- Heritability in the narrow-sense, h², is the genetic component measure to which additive genetic variance contributes. The heritability might be used to determine how the population will respond to the selection done, R.
h² = R/SD
- The response to selection (R) refers to the metric value gained or lost from the cross between the selected parents. R can be calculated by multiplying the heritability h², with the selection differential, SD.
R = h²SD
R also equals the difference between the new generation phenotypic value (X₁) and the original population phenotypic value (X₀),
R = X₀ - X₁
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that we know these concepts and how to calculate them, we can solve the proposed problem.
<u>Available data: </u>
- trying to decrease the maturation time in a population of sunflowers.
- the population mean time to flower is 100 days → X₀
- Chosen parental Plants mean flowering time is 90 days → Xs
- the narrow-sense heritability for flowering time is 0.2 → h²
According to what we sow previously, we need to find out the value of X₁, which reflects the next generation average time to flowering.
- We know that R = X₁ - X₀, so we need to clear this formula to calculate X₁
X₁ = R + X₀
We already know that X₀ = 100 days,
Now we need to calculate R.
We know that h² = 0.2,
Now we need to calculate SD
Xs = 90 days → Parentals media flowering time
X₀ = 100 → Population media flowering time
SD = Xs - X₀
SD = 90 - 100
SD = - 10 days
Knowing this, we can calculate R
o h² = 0.2
o SD = - 10
R = 0.2 x (-10)
R = - 2
- Finally, once we know the R-value we can calculate the X₁ value
X₁ = R + X₀
X₁ = - 2 + 100
X₁ = 98
Answer:
B. Disruptive Selection
Explanation:
the population is divided into two distinct groups, or is disrupted so the gentics start to vary between the separted populations over time.
