If selfing starts in a previously randomly mating population composed of 0.50 heterozygotes, what is the frequency of heterozygo

4 0

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%

Explanation:

The effect on the growth of the full sunlight and green light or the increased carbon dioxide and normal air. There are several effects that can affect the growth of the plant can be affected. Provided options are directly or indirectly affects the variables that are unknown but can affect the growth of plants.

Increased in carbon dioxide does not leads to the decrease of other essential gasses in substantial amount, common uniform strain of seedlings are also cause effects the experiment of plant growth in specific manner. Light is also one of influential and limitation factor that affects the growth of the plant.
