Answer:
ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.
Explanation:
Here Z seems to be the dominant allele. A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.
If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW
However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW
ZW*ZW
ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW
While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.
Dinosaur fossils had been known for centuries as "dragon bones" or the remains of giants, but it wasn't until Dean William Buckland of Oxford, England described the carnivorous "lizard" Megalosaurus<span> (in 1824) that they were formally studied as an extinct group of giant reptiles</span>
Answer:
E. thickening of the tunica intima and loss of elasticity in the tunica media.
Explanation:
Arteriosclerosis is characterized by thickening of the tunica intima and loss of elasticity in the tunica media.
Answer:
1)
- frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.74
- frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.26
2)
- frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.13
- frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.87
3)
- q² = 0.74
- p² = 0.02
- 2pq = 0.24
4)
- q² = 0.13
- p² = 0.4
- 2pq = 0.46
5)
The dark-colored fur seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage
6)
Dark lava, that changed the color of the substrate, from light to dark.
7)
Because to produce dark color, animals from the different regions suffered different mutations that drove them to have almost the same dark fur color. All of the animals are inhabiting dark substrate, which means that this environmental condition is favoring the same phenotype.
8)
To see if the mice population is evolving, you need to take a sample of animals per year, through many years, and analyze if it is changing or not. If the population is evolving, you will notice a change in the allelic and genotypic frequencies over the years, favoring one genotype or the other. If the population is not evolving, the frequencies will keep equal through the years, it will not change.
Explanation:
Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files.
I think the organisms are compared to each other.
