When scientists use the word "theory", it is because they consider their information speculative. True False

Biology
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: FALSE

Explanation:

The scientific theory can be defined as the process of explanation and describing the natural events and phenomena occurring in nature. It is supported by a scientific methodology which involves making an observation, questioning, hypothesis making, experimenting and concluding results.

In the speculative information only assumption it is not supported by any evidence obtain after experimentation. The speculative information must not be included in the theory, this will reduce the validity of the theory.

bogdanovich [222]

If the assumption of random matings is not accomplished, and individuals  mate by similar phenotype, the involved phenotype and the h0m0zyg0us genotypes would increase their frequencies.

If individuals in a population were more likely to mate with others that shared their phenotype, the <u>genotypic</u><u> </u>and <u>phenotypic frequencies</u> would change.

The assumption of random mating would not be accomplished, because individuals would rather mate with other individuals that look like them.

This is known as <u><em>matings</em></u><u><em> by </em></u><u><em>similar phenotype</em></u>.

Individuals with similar phenotypes in a certain characteristic are more likely to mate than expected matings by chance.

Individuals choose partners with phenotypes similar to their own.

Allelic frequencies do not change. However, mating by similar phenotype will cause,

  • Disequilibrium in the gametic phase

  • Increase in h0m0zyg0us genotypes at heter0zyg0us expense in loci that determine the selected trait.

  • Separation of the population into genetically distinct subgroups

concerning the involved loci.

  • Increase in the phenotypic frequency.

Matings by similar phenotype might be an important factor in the process speciation, leading to evolution.

So, if individuals were more likely to mate with others that shared their phenotype, the phenotypic frequency would increase as well as the h0m0zyg0us genotypes.

Explanation:

The dependant variable is the variable that changes when the science teacher leaves.

Independant variable would most likely be whether or not the science teacher is in the room.
