Disruptive selection or diversifying selection describes the changes in population genetics where extreme values for a trait are favored over intermediate values.

So according to this definition, the conclusion can be derived as :

The most common circumference(s) to be after 10 generations of diversifying selection will be greater than 2 cm and less than 2 cm.

What major organelle are prokaryotes missing that eukaryotes have?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Nucleus

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are the organism that came earlier than eukaryotes on this earth. These prokaryotes do not have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles like chloroplast, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, etc.  

So as prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelle their genetic material is not enclosed in the nucleus therefore their genetic material remains in the cytoplasm of the cell while eukaryotes have membrane-bound nucleus in which their genetic material are present.  

So the nucleus is the major organelle that prokaryotes are missing that eukaryotes have.

A father produces sperm that only carry ‘t’ alleles. What is likely to be his genotype?
Sav [38]

Answer:

The Genotype of an organism determines the genetic characteristics of an individual.

If a father produces sperm that carry only 't' alleles, the his genotype will be 'tt' or hom.ozygous genotype.

Hom.ozygous genotype contains the same type of genes responsible for a particular phenotype.

Hence, the correct answer is 'tt' or hom.ozygous genotype.
