You are studying two species of tree frog. The two species are found on two different islands, separated by 200 km of ocean water. Species A lives on very light-colored rocks and species B lives on dark-colored trees. Which process is most unlikely to be affecting allele frequencies in the population?

a. Gene flow between populations

b. Genetic drift

c. Natural selection

d. Mutation rates

Answer:

a. Gene flow between populations

Explanation:

Gene flow between two populations occurs when one or a few members of one population migrate into the other and interbreed in the new population. This process adds some new alleles to the new population. In the given example, two populations of a tree frog are separated by 200 km of ocean water. Therefore, the frogs of one population would not be able to migrate into the other population and interbreed. So, gene flow can not affect the allele frequencies of these two populations.

What happens in the G2 phase of the cell cycle?
muminat
Your answer is After DNA replication, the cell leaves S phase and enters G2, when the cell prepares for mitosis or meiosis. At the G2 checkpoint, the cell checks two things. First, it checks DNA for any damage that might have occurred during replication. It also ensures all the proteins needed for cell division are present.

Solnce55 [7]
If they are trying to convert any measurements or just measure out the chemicals, it wouldn't be very familiar to them so they could make a mistake that can result of too much or too little of the chemicals, which can make the chemicals react differently.
