You call an exterminator to your house because you have noticed many nymphs of a specific insect everywhere in your cupboards. T

brilliants [131]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

The case in this the biological exterminators asks to use the biological concept which includes spraying the solution of the juvenile hormone to get rid of nymphs of specific insect and according to the assumption, this solution causes some alteration on the ability to reproduce of such nymphs and leads to only nonreproductive ones.

On the given condition the increasing of nymphs, the number of adult nymphs or decreasing of nymphs can not be condition and as the reproductive ability is affected the number of nymphs would be the same.

Thus, the correct answer would be - option C.

You are an almond grower and want to determine whether almond size (measured as shelled almond weight) is a heritable trait. A s

Answer: 1. S = 0.77

2. R = 0.14

Explanation:

1. Selection differential is the difference between the population mean and the average of the selected parents. Its symbol is S.

S = mean of selected parents - population mean

S = 6.48 - 5.71

S = 0.77

2. Response to Selection is how much gain you make when crossing over selected parents. Its symbol is R.

R = mean of offspring of selected parents - population mean

R = 5.85 - 5.71

R = 0.14

3. Heritability is, basically, a statistical variable that shows how much the variation in a trait is due to genetic factors. Its symbol is h².

To calculate it, use Breeder's Equation:

R = h²S

$h^{2}=\frac{R}{S}$

$h^{2}=\frac{0.14}{0.77}$

h² = 0.18

4. You would expect the production to be strongly influenced by environment, because heritability lies between 0 and 1. Low heritability means there is low level of resemblance between offspring and parents. As this program heritability is low, the resemblance is small, which means the characteristics are influenced mostly by the enviroment.
