When the gene is considered pleiotropic, this means that a single gene controls or influences multiple and possibly unrelated phenotypic traits. Phenotypic traits are characteristics of an organism that is can be easily observed. Such as size, color, shape and behavior.

A population of skunks lives in a woodland habitat. The skunks are unable to leave because of a large mountain. Describe two rea
ohaa [14]

Some of the conditions that must be met for a population or an allele to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:

1. The population must be very large.

2. There must be no migration and population must be isolated.

3. There must be no mutations.

4. There must be random mating, which means there are no mating preferences.


So, a population will not be at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium if it is small, or there are mutations, which is not mentioned, but mutations are expected to occur. Also, although there is a large mountain, skunks can migrate to some other area of a woodland. So, probable mutations and migrations suggest that the population is not at <span>Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium.</span>

What is the correct "height" or "size" for a piece of oils rigs to become a candidate for "rigs to reef." Remember, oil rigs can
Bogdan [553]

Answer and Explanation:

An oil rig is a type of piston ring which is situated in the ring grooves. The oil ring is commonly used on small engines to wipe excess oil from the wall of the cylinder during the piston's movement. Through the opening of rings, excess oil returned to the oil reservoir. These rings are not used on the two-stroke cycle engines. These rings are one-piece or two-piece. An oil ring seals the combustion chamber through inherent pressure and controlling the consumption of oil. The inherent pressure of the oil ring is very high on the piston. These rings use an expander, high-pressure unit and inherent pressure. The oil rings are also used to spread the oil around the liner surface.  These rings can be cut into various sizes. An oil ring has an axial.
