True or false: Populations of a single species that connect those that are more geographically separated are often intermediate

phenotypically when compared to the separated populations.
Biology

Darya [45]3 years ago

Answer:

This assertion is false since it depends on the type of selection exerted on the trait under investigation

Explanation:

Geographic isolation is caused by physical barriers such as, for example, rivers, mountains, longer distances, etc, which prevent the interchange of genetic material among populations of the same species. Over time, complete geographic isolation leads to genetic isolation among populations and the development of reproductive barriers, resulting in the separation in two species (speciation). Intermediate populations prevent speciation by enabling gene flow among populations. In consequence, intermediate populations often exhibit intermediate traits as a consequence of bidirectional gene flow; however, there are cases where a given trait is favored by non-directional selection, thereby favoring phenotypic values exhibited by marginal populations localized at the extreme distributional range of the species.

In a particular plant, two genes control height and flower color. tall height (t) is dominant to short height (t). yellow flower
Luda [366]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

As in a given cross two genes control the height and flower color. Tall height (T) is dominant over the short height (t) and yellow flowers (Y) are dominant over the white flower (y).

When the tall yellow flowered mated with short white flowers, the genotype of the plants can be;

TTYY × ttyy or It can be TtYy × ttyy or TTYy × ttyy or TtYY × ttyy

Please HELP////2. A couple are both phenotypically normal, but their son suffers from hemophilia, a sex-linked recessive disorde
katrin [286]

Answer:

1/4 suffer from hemophilia

1/4 are heterozygous

Explanation:

So since they are normal but their son isn't it is assumed that the mom is the carrier since the dad has to be X^HY

X^HY x  X^HX^h

Set up a pedigree

X^HX^H X^HX^h

X^HY     X^hY

1/4 suffer from hemophilia (X^h)

1/4 are heterozygous (X^HX^h)
