<span>The first desirable trait that is being engineered into our crops is sustainability. This means that crops are being bred to be able to grow in adverse conditions, ensuring the ability to sustain our food supply as humans. The second, are the alterations being genetically done to crops to eliminate the need for pesticides. By heightening the crops natural ability to eliminate and deter pests, there are higher yields and the elimination of pesticides seeping into and poisoning the human consumer. And, finally an ability to eliminate the need for traditional breeding in crops. By genetically replicating plants, we are eliminating the chance that the human race may "run out", of seeds, of starts, of the need for pollination. This basically ensures us an unlimited food supply, just in these three traits being bred into our crops.</span>
Answer:
generation 1
Explanation:
The allele frequency is a term that represents the frequency that an allele can appear in a given population. This term can help to develop conclusions about the genetic diversity that a region presents in relation to the individuals that compose it.
In relation to the question above, generation 1 had the highest frequency of having one of each allele. This is because this generation presents the maximum frequency of the dominant and recessive alleles in a coherent way, 0.60 and 0.40. However, the other generations showed a steady and progressive decrease in the recessive allele.
The answer is B., Natural Selection.
Weather certainly doesn't change populations, and genes only caused individuals in a population to be slightly ( genetically-wise ) different from the others. It does cause change, but not change in the whole population over time.
Natural disasters don't change the populations over time either. Natural disasters only caused change in their environment, at most.
So, the only answer left is natural selection, and it makes sense too!
Natural selection is the process where the individuals with better traits suited to survive in that specific environment live on and give those good traits to their offspring.
The individuals with less suited traits to survive will die out, and will not be given an opportunity to reproduce and pass on their less suited traits, so over time, the population will increase of individuals with better suited traits to survive and the individuals with less suited traits will eventually die out, therefore making the entire population change.
