Generation-to-generation change in the allele frequencies in a population is _____.

a. genetic drift b. natural selection c. macroevolution d. mutation e. Microevolution

Answer:

e. Microevolution

Explanation:

Microevolution refers to the small changes in the allele frequencies and the genotype frequencies of the populations. These changes occur over a few generations and deviate the populations from the genetic equilibrium.  

The processes responsible for microevolution are mutations, genetic drift, gene flow, etc. Similarly, sexual selection and nonrandom mating also change the allele frequencies of the populations. Likewise, natural selection brings about microevolution by increasing the frequencies of the alleles that impart the beneficial traits to the organisms.

How do mutated tumor suppressor genes affect the cell cycle?
Marrrta [24]
Tumor suppressor genes encode for proteins that inhibit or slow the progression of the cell cycle through a specific stage.they also encode for check point control proteins that arrests the cell cycle if the DNA is damaged or the chromosomes are abnormal. Mutation in the tumor suppressor genes that cause a loss or decreased function would lead to uncontrolled cell cycle leading to abnormal proliferation and the cell may become cancerous.
