Crossing over, or recombination, is thought to be evolutionarily advantageous because it continually shuffles genetic alleles in

to novel combinations. Until recently, it was thought that Y-linked genes might degenerate because they have no homologous genes on the X chromosome with which to recombine. However, when the Y chromosome was sequenced, eight large regions were found to be internally homologous to each other, and quite a few of the 78 genes represent duplicates. How might this be beneficial?

Answer: Segmental duplication

Explanation:

Most of the times, segmental duplicarions occurs to preserve/conserve important regions on the chromosome to avoid extinction. If perhaps a damage occurs in one particular region that has a duplicate, the duplicate is present to help conserve the functions of the damaged regions.

After an exceptionally rainy spring, there is no longer a barrier between the populations, and some individuals migrate inland f
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer

After inland population after migration allele frequency is 0.62 or 62%

Explanation:

Given,  

Coastal striped phenotype freq. = 0.22

ss = 0.22

q_{coastal} \times q_{coastal} = 0.22

q_{2 coastal}= 0.22

Similarly, inland striped phenotype freq. = 0.43

q_{2inland} = 0.43

q_{coastal} = \sqrt{q_{2coastal}}

= \sqrt{0.22}

= 0.4690

q_{coastal}= 0.47 i.e. 47%

q_{inland} = \sqrt{0.43}

= 0.655

q_{inland} = 0.66 i.e. 66%

the migration range (m) is given as 20%

m= 0.2

allele freq. after migration = pre migration + ∆q

here,                  

∆q = change in the allele frequency

or                    

migration of allele freq. from coastal to inland

=m(q_{coastal} - q_{inland})

= 0.2 (0.47 – 0.66)  

=0.2 \times (- 0.191)

= - 0.0382    

∆q = -0.04   i.e. 4%
