Answer:
a biologic trade of sperm/ semen and egg cells
when these are traded only then reproduction occurs
<u>Answer:</u> Mutations are the most fundamental way to add new genes to a gene pool.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mutation refers to the process through which the normal sequence of altered. It may be either acquired or hereditary. It leads to addition of new genes to a gene pool.
The reason for not considering other statements as true are:
1. It is the hereditary mutation that are passed form parent to offspring's and acquired mutation is caused by external factors.
2. Acquired mutation are caused by external factors such as radiation.
3. Germ line mutation are important to evolution because they can be inherited.
Replication is performed prior to cell division
Answer:
0.25%
Explanation:
20 people start the new population. So there are 20 genes or 40 alleles for the recessive disorder phenylketonuria. 2 out of 40 alleles are recessive for the condition hence frequency of the allele = 2/40 = 0.05
Frequency of the allele does not change when the population increases so it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. According to it, if q is the frequency of recessive allele, q² = frequency of the recessive condition
Here, q = 0.05 So,
q² = (0.05)² = 0.0025
In percentage, it is 100 * 0.0025 = 0.25%
Hence, incidence of phenylketonuria in the new population is 0.25%
