Answer:

So after the third generation of selfing, 0.0625 population will be hetero zygous.

Explanation:

Selfing or in another term self-breeding lead to the loss of heterozygosity which ultimately decreased the genetic variation of any population. Selfing in each successive generation cause the loss of 50% heterozygosity from parental one

if a randomly mating population start selfing with 50% heterozygosity then after three generations following result will be obtained

F1-0.25%

F2-0.125%

F3-0.0625%

Imagine that a researcher is examining the positioning of synaptic clefts in a region of the nervous system of adult mice. In on
Setler [38]
This is likely a mutant mouse (as synaptic clefts are typically 10 to 20 nm wide). Given that neurotransmitters act over short distances, this mouse may demonstrate delayed responses to stimuli, or no responses at all.

Mass Extinctions May Have Been Caused By Meteors
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Yes, Mass Extinctions May Have Been Caused By Meteors, as the probability of mass extinction occurring after an asteroid that could hit a random location on the Earth's surface was approximately 13% when the Chicxulub-scale asteroid hit the Earth. 

Soot could be the main cause of mass extinction after an asteroid impact.
