Mashcka [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is allopatric speciation.

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation occurs when a geographical barrier comes between a species population living in the same area. This geographical barrier separates the population into two different geographical area which do not have the same condition.

So as both the separated population get different habitat environment to live so they evolve differently from each other. So natural selection and genetic drift works differently in both the population which brings genetic changes in the population and helps in creating a new species.

ProblemAssume that long fingers are inherited as a recessive trait with 80% penetrance. Two people heterozygous for long fingers
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The probability that their first child will have long fingers is 20%  

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • long fingers are inherited with 80% penetrance
  • L represents the dominant allele for short fingers
  • l represents the recessive allele for long fingers

Cross) Two people heterozygous for long fingers mate

                            Ll          x         Ll

Gametes)    1/2 L    1/2l         1/2L    1/2l

Punnet Square)  

                               L         l

                     L      LL      Ll

                       l     Ll       ll

F1) 25% or 1/4 LL

     50% or 1/2 Ll

     25% or 1/4 ll

Long fingers are inherited with 80% penetrance, which means that 80% is the proportion of the population that expresses the phenotype long fingers. Hence, the probability that the first child in this cross will have long fingers is:

100% ------- 80%

25% -------- X = 20%
