What is the founder effect? ​

Biology
2 answers:
Zina [86]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

After a calamity, like a disease, fire or floods, hits a population, it could suddenly decrease the population size. This would also cause a drastic change in allelic frequencies from that of the initial population.

The founder effect is when this small population with reduced genetic variation repopulates into a population with lower genetic variation compared to the initial population before the population bottleneck. This founder effect may lead to genetic drift in the population, high levels of inbreeding, and reduced capacity of the population to adapt to changes in the environment.

Identify four examples of codons and state the instructions they encode
vladimir1956 [14]

The mRNA is read sequentially in groups of three successive bases (or codons), each identifying a precise amino acid, the sequence of codons on the mRNA defining the succession of amino acids in the protein.

The four examples:

AAA: codes for lysine

GGG: codes for glycine

AUC: codes for methionine (the start codon).

UAG: stop codon (one of them).

Schach [20]

Answer:

When both _signal molecules_ are in their receptor sites, the molecules form a dimer (two molecules joined together). ATP is converted to ADP and the _phosphate group_ gets attached to the tyrosine molecules. The addition of the _ relay proteins_ causes a cascade of cellular responses.
