An air mass that originates in the Pacific ocean, west of Brazil, is most likely WARM AND WET.
A. warm and wet
<u>Explanation:</u>
The pacific ocean has the tropical maritime air mass so it is warm and wet. they affect the United States originate over the Caribbean sea, Mexico, pacific and the western Brazil.
So the air masses in the pacific ocean, western Brazil are wet and warm.the air masses have the fairly uniform temperature and the moisture content in the horizontal direction.
Air masses are characterized by their temperature and the humidity properties. The air mass where the originate is based on the surface properties.
<span>Erythropoietin is a Hematoprotein that is obtained from kidney as a response to the cellular hypoxia and it also helps in raising the levels of red blood cells in the bone marrow. Since the patient her is administered an injection of this there is possibility to see increased hematocrit which is the increased volume of red blood cells with respect to blood volume.</span>
Answer:
The options
a. New combinations of genes yielding genotypes of greater fitness
b. Few heterozygotes because of underdominance
c. Frequency-dependent selection, leading to fluctuations in fitness
d. Heterozygotes with greater fitness, owing to overdominance
e. A random assortment of genotypes because of genetic drift
The CORRECT ANSWER IS b.
b. Few heterozygotes because of under dominance
Explanation:
In genetics, underdominance (at times called "negative overdominance") is the opposite of overdominance.
It is the selection against the heterozygote, that leads to disruptive selection and divergent genotypes. It occurs in cases of inferior and reduced fitness (As in our case study, it is the different chromosomal fusions and inversions)
of the heterozygotic genotype to the dominant or recessive homozygotic genotype. It is unstable as it causes fixation of either allele.
Another example is the African butterfly species Pseudacraea eurytus, which makes use of Batesian mimicry to avoid predation. This species carries two alleles that gives a coloration that is alike to a different local butterfly species that is harmful to its predator. The butterflies who are heterozygous for this trait are observed to be intermediate in coloration and thus encounter an higher risk of predation and a decrease in the total fitness.
