<u>Answer:</u>

Recombination is less likely to separate nearby allele from the favored one  contribute(s) to this pattern.

<u>  Explanation:</u>

  • Selective sweep is the reduction/elimination of the difference in the nucleotide (allele) in the mutation. This usually occurs in a rare allele.
  • Mutation is the alteration in the existing gene of a species.
  • Recombination is the exchange of DNA between the chromosomes of the parents.
  • The mutation levels are prone to increase or decrease during recombination.

Answer:

agouti - aaBbCc

solid color - AaBBCC

agouti black - AAbbCc

albino - AaBbcc/Aabbcc/AABBcc

Explanation: All the phenotypes that contain cc will be albinos, so they won't present any pigment deposition. Agouti black depends on the A gene to be homozygous and the B to be recessive, so the phenotype AAbbC_ is the correspondent. If A is not homozygous and B isn't recessive, we have agouti color. If B is homozygous and A recessive, we have a solid color.

In species where males provide the bulk of the parental care, males are most likely to
aivan3 [116]
This question is incomplete. The options are:
<span>a. be choosy about which females they mate with.
b. be indiscriminant about which females they mate with.
c. mate with as many females as possible.
d. compete to mate with choosy females.
</span>
The answer is a: be choosy about which females they mate with. 
This is because the male would in this case be investing a lot of energy in parenting its young, and would therefore adopt a strategy of mating with one or very few females. It therefore makes sense that the male would be choosy in regards to its mate.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

D) Folded mountain with jagged, rough edges

Explanation:

The incident which happened some fifty million years ago was the collision of the Indian plates and the Eurasian plates thus giving rise to the folded mountains that are characteristic of the Himalayas. Subduction was not possible when these two plates collided because they had the same density.

So, the force with which the two plates collided resulted in the formation of folded mountains that rose upward. The peaks of these mountains were jagged, rough, and uneven.
