Suppose you are involved in a project studying a population of Dalea purpurea (purple prairie clover), a diploid, bee pollinated

plant growing at Cayler Prairie in NW Iowa. You collect a sample from 100 individuals and assay DNA sequence variation at the apetala locus, which controls floral morphology. You find two distinct sequences: L and S. Individuals that are LL have very large petals, LS plants have medium sized petals, and SS plants have small petals. Your sample of plants yields the following observed and Hardy-Weinberg expected (HWE) genotypic counts:.Genotype: Observed Counts: HWE Counts:LL 14 9LS 32 42SS 54 49a. The population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, giving no indication of the preferences of the bees.b. LS heterozygotes are favored due to hybrid vigor.c. Bees are preferentially visiting smaller flowers resulting in a reproductive advantage for plants with smaller petals.d. LL genotype plants have a reproductive advantage due to their larger flowers.e. Bees preferentially cross-pollinate flowers of the same size (like size mating with like) resulting in inbreeding with respect to genotypes at the apetala locus.

Answer:

Option E

Explanation:

Bees preferentially cross-pollinate flowers of the same size (like size mating with like) resulting in inbreeding with respect to genotypes at the apetala locus.

Inbreeding increases the frequency of homozygousity and deviates from the assumptions of the hardy Weinberg's principle

All large radioactive atoms decay into smaller atoms by releasing alpha particles. Each alpha particle has 2 protons, 2 neutrons
nataly862011 [7]
All large radioactive atoms decay into smaller atoms by emitting alpha particles which consists of two protons and two neutrons. An alpha particle can also be thought of as the nucleus of a helium atom and as such they are sometimes referred to as He2+ . The positive charge is due to the lack of two electrons.

Because all of the cells in a multi-cellular organism come from a single cell, all of its cells will have the same number of
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Chromosomes

Explanation:

Multicellular organism are organisms that have more than one cells in their body. However, from the very beginning of every living organism including multicellular organisms, only ONE cell is required. In the case of multicellular organisms, this one cell undergoes division by mitosis to form other cells.

Since the cells divide by mitosis i.e 1 forms 2, 2 forms 4 etc.,. each of the cells are genetically identical to one another. Hence, this means that all the cells will contain the same number of chromosomes in their genome. For example, a dog as a multicellular organism has cells that emanate from one cell. If that one cell contain 39 chromosomes, all cells in the dog will also contain 39 chromosomes.
