Answer: overpopulation of predators

Explanation: Overpopulation of predators is the correct option. Predators are the organisms which kill other organism so as to obtain them as food. The organism being killed is called as the prey.

If the population of the predators increase this will lead to the extinction of many species of prey. As it is evident that every organism in the ecosystem has a typical role to play. Therefore, it can be said that role of prey will not be performed and this may lead to disturbance in the ecological balance.

Meiotic chromosome and chromatid segregation
Chromosome segregation occurs at two separate stages during meiosis called anaphase I and anaphase II (see meiosis diagram). In a diploid cell there are two sets of homologous chromosomes of different parental origin

A signaling pathway that stimulates cellular growth and division is positively regulated by a GTPase encoded by an autosomally l
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a.

Explanation:

  • A Diploid organism possess two copies ( also called alleles) of each  autosomal gene, of which one copy of the gene is obtained from one of its parents and the other copy from its other parent.
  • During the process of replication, one of the alleles of the GTPase encoding gene undergoes a mis-sense mutation.
  • A Mis-sense mutation can be defined as a non-synonymous mutation in which one of the nucleotide in the sequence of the gene gets altered such that it causes a change in the amino acid encoded by the codon (triplet nucleotide message encoding for a single amino acid)  formed by the mutated nucleotide. A single amino acid change in the protein, if occurs in the functional site of the protein, can render a protein non-functional.
  • Hence, the mis-sense mutation in one of the alleles encoding for the GTPase gene causes the resulting protein produced from the mutated allele to have drastically reduced function (1%).
  • A heterozygous cell is one which has one copy of the normal allele and the other copy of the mutated allele of the GTPase encoding gene.
  • As one copy of the normal GTPase allele is present in such an individual, it can produce the normal GTPase protein that can assist in the process of cell growth and division.
  • Hence, the phenotype(expressed character) of  the heterozygous cell will not be affected due to the mutation and it will be able to grow and divide normally.

Siblings Billy and Sue are brother and sister, but g are not genetic copies of each other. For example, Sue inherited their moth
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The options are

A.Independent assortment

B. Mutation

C. Crossing over

D. Non disjunction

The answer is A.Independent assortment

Explanation:

Independent assortment of genes involves the separation of genes during the formation and development of reproductive cells.

A boy has XY chromosome and a lady has XX chromosomes. This explains why Sue inherited the mother's copy of chromosome 13 but their father's copy of chromosome 14 while her brother Billy inherited their father's copy of both chromosomes 13 and 14. He inherited both due to the presence of XY chromosomes.
