A population of snakes that eat small rodents enters a new habitat. In the new habitat, there are many species of rodents, and t

heir populations are high because there are few natural predators. What will most likely be the effect on the genetic variation of the snake population?
Genetic variation will increase because of a selective pressure.

Genetic variation will increase because of a new habitat and food source.

Genetic variation will decrease because of a selective pressure.

Genetic variation will decrease because of a new habitat and food source.

Answer:

The correct answer is the 2nd statement.

Explanation:

Genetic variation signifies the naturally taking place genetic differences, which prevails between the individuals of similar species. Genetic variation is essential as it permits the individuals to thrive better in a given surrounding.  

In the mentioned case, when the snakes enter a novel habitat, they came across a condition where there are lesser natural predators and because of this they had enough food and less competition. Therefore, no selective pressure is exhibited to affect genetic variation.  

Additionally, in the availability of enough food and non-existence of competition, the genetic variation will only enhance. Thus, in the mentioned case, the genetic variation of the snakes enhances because of the food source and new habitat.

Which statements describe incomplete dominance?
irga5000 [103]

Ans.

Incomplete dominance is defined as a pattern of inheritance, in which both of the alleles for a specific trait get expressed in offspring (neither allele is dominant or recessive).

It result in appearance of an intermediate, third phenotype or physical trait that shows combination of traits of both alleles.

For example, a cross between red colored and white colored flower of 4' O clock plants results in offspring plants with pink colored flowers

Thus, the correct options are :-

-Traits are neither recessive nor dominant.

-Offspring show an intermediate trait of alleles from the parents.

-Both alleles, one from each parent, get expressed in offspring.

-Incomplete dominance involves the interaction of two alleles.

Gwar [14]
I believe the correct answer would be metabolism. This comprises all of the reactions inside organisms that allows them to sustain life. There are two categories of such namely, anabolism and catabolism. Hope this answers the question.
