Which observation would be the best evidence for a recent founder event or population bottleneck?

Biology

Bingel [31]3 years ago

The best evidence of such phenomena could be a population's genetic variation decrease.
When a population bottleneck occur it means that for some reason (i.e. environmental events) the size of a population is largely reduced. This leads to reduction of the genetic variation in that new smaller population. When a bottleneck occur, the founder effect is normally seen, which is that one population is established by a small group of a previously larger population leading once again the genetic variation, now though with a bigger population, to be very reduced.

Why does having a genetically diverse population make a species more likely to survive a change to the environment?
Eddi Din [679]
Genetic adaptability is very important to the survival and adaptability of any specie. This is because, in a diverse population, the possibility of finding individuals with the right genetic adaptability to the changing environment is higher, the population will have more possible adaptations.

Which part of the hemoglobin molecule binds carbon dioxide for transport?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

α-amino group

Explanation:

The α-amino group on the hemoglobin binds with the CO2 and this action causes a conformational change in the structure of hemoglobin that ultimately causes the release of linked oxygen. When CO2 is binded to the hemoglobin the whole complex is termed as carbamino-hemoglobin.

Explain the idea of genetic drift. How does natural selection effect genetic drift.
Anettt [7]

Genetic drift is defined as a shift in the allelic frequency of a population. This can be caused by natural selection which is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals across a population due to differences in phenotype. Natural selection favors particular traits in a population hence these individuals are able to reproduce while the individuals with disadvantageous traits will pass their genes to succeeding generations. This way the allelic frequency of succeeding generation will be diferent from that of the parent population.
