Natural selection is a fundamental mechanism driving the evolution of species. To research this conclusion a group of scientist

want to test the effects of increased river salinity on a population of catfish in a river. What results from this experiment would confirm that natural selection is a process that can drive evolution

Answer:

The result which could confirm that natural selection is a process that can drive evolution is "change in the allele frequency of the population".

When salinity of the river is increased, the individuals which can tolerate the changing environment would survive.

Due to natural selection, these individuals would survive and reproduce more efficiently as compared to the individuals which lack such traits or adaptations.

Over generations, the population would only consist of these organisms and thus, the allele frequency of the population would change.

Hence, the population would evolve.

Osmotic pressure is created by the presence in a fluid of small diffusible molecules that easily move through the capillary memb
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The statement is False

Explanation:

Osmotic pressure is created by the movement of water across the semi-permeable membrane. In osmosis water moves from an area which is having low solute concentration to the area which is having high solute concentration.  

So in osmosis, the movement of water takes place not molecules. This pressure is caused by differences in solute concentration across the plasma membrane and water moves to high concentration to equalize the pressure. Therefore the statement is wrong.

Design an experiment to determine whether the pink flower of petunia plants results from incomplete dominance.
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

To cross petunia plants/lines with pink flowers (F1) which were obtained by crossing plants with red and white flowers (parental generation). The presence of petunia plants with red or white flowers in F2 would evidence that this trait is under incomplete dominance.

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is a type of relationship in which both alleles are expressed in heterozygous individuals, thereby resulting in a new phenotype. This type of allelic interaction is commonly referred to as 'the dilution of the dominant allele' in heterozygous individuals. Moreover, codominance refers to a type of allele relationship in which both alleles are expressed to an equal degree in heterozygous individuals.
