Alleles are the alternative form of a gene that code for a given trait, the alleles may be dominant or recessive or exhibit incomplete dominance. When two alleles are similar they are referred to as homozygous while they are not similar they are referred to as heterozygous. Based on the founder effect, rare alleles and combinations may be improved in new populations because of the reduced size of the initial population.
Answer:
The only types of mutations that matter to large-scale evolutionary species are the mutations that can be passed to offspring (Genetic).
Explanation:
If a mutation is passed to offspring, through the generations it will become more and more prevalent...Eventually causing a pretty good dent on a population size. Hope this helps : )!
No, but we share a common ancestor.
