Answer: C). immigration

Carrying capacity is the property of ecosystem which indicates the number of individuals of population of species or group of species an ecosystem can sustain in terms of availability of resources (food, shelter). A population of herbivores is at it's carrying capacity for it's habitat. Immigration is the arrival of members of species to a new habitat for the purpose of deriving resources not found in their previous habitat or new habitat is more suitable then previous habitat. Immigration will increase the number of individuals in the ecosystem. Therefore, immigration will result in a sudden rise in a population that far exceeds the carrying capacity.

Consider the following three populations of birds. Assume HW equilibrium. With these birds red coloring is recessive, while brow
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population I

Explanation:

Population I -

Total population - 670

Brown birds - 603

Red birds - 67

Population II

Total population - 100

Brown birds - 90

Red birds - 10

Population III

Total population - 30

Brown birds - 27

Red birds - 3

Frequency of red birds in population I

\frac{67}{670} = 0.1

Frequency of red birds in population II

\frac{10}{90} = 0.11

Frequency of red birds in population III

\frac{3}{30} = 0.1

Red allele frequency will be highest in population II and it will be equal to \sqrt{0.11} = 0.33 as compared to 0.31 in case of population I and III

Population III can undergo bottleneck effect because of smaller population size

The frequency of the brown allele will  least likely be altered in the population that has highest  brown individual , i.e population I

slava [35]
<span>Roan is a combination of white hairs with red hairs. When we see cattle like this, they look pink because it resulted from a mix of white and red.

Red allele: A

Like i said previously this is the mixture of colors so the animal would be pink.

A red coat color has this genotype: AA
A white coat color has this genotype: aa

To get all the herd to be</span><span> roan-colored cattle the combination of parents should be: AA x aa. -> 100% roan
