Answer:
In the exceptionally cold winter of 1997, Lake Superior froze over between the Wisconsin mainland and Isle Royale. A pack of 8 wolves crossed the ice and reached Isle Royale, an island where they encountered a population of about a dozen wolves. It is estimated that the wolf population on Isle Royale has been isolated for over 100 years (~10 generations). The pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice would be referred to as <u>founder population</u> and if the wolves interbreed with the island population, <u>genetic drift</u> will occur.
Explanation:
The founder effect occurs when a portion of a population (i-e the founders) separates from the old population to start a new population with different allele frequencies. Hence the pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice would be referred to as <u>founder population</u> in the given scenario.
Genetic drift is defined as change in the allele frequencies in a population due to chance event. As in the given scenario, the pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice, interbreed with the island population, thus change in the allelle frequency is occuring in the population , hence <u>genetic drift</u> will occur.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
70% of the world's population lives in developing countries.
there are fewer clouds in this layer, making Commercial jet aircraft fly in the lower stratosphere to avoid the turbulence which is common in the troposphere below. The stratosphere is very dry; air there contains little water vapor. Because of this, few clouds are found in this layer; almost all clouds occur in the lower, more humid troposphere. a much smoother ride overall.airplanes fly in the stratosphere is because this is where the least amount of turbulence is found.
Saturated air has a relative humidity of 100%
That would be Apogee which is the farthest point of the moon from the Earth. The opposite would be Perigee and this is also when the moon appears larger.
