Answer:

D) Frequency results from environmental stresses, not dominance.

Explanation:

The allele frequency refers to the amount of frequency of a particular allele in a small population whereas the dominance and recessive are the measure of the effects of the allele on the population which decides the trait of an organism.

The frequency and dominance cannot be correlated with each other as the frequency of the allele in a population is the result of the environmental stress which are random and by chances, whereas the effect of dominance is not random but is the result of the favoured trait for survival.

Thus, Option-D is correct.

Vinvika [58]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Directional selection can be distinguished from disruptive selection by the elimination of extreme variations of traits. Directional selection is a natural selection where an extreme phenotype is favored than others.

Please answer this, ITS IMPORTANT AND I NEED ASAP!!!
Neko [114]

Answer:

Chromosomes contain genes, which help to determine an organism's traits. Genes come in alternate forms called alleles. The actual gene combination that an organism receives from its parents is called its genotype, while the trait that gets expressed as a result is referred to as its phenotype. If an offspring receives the same type of allele for a given gene from each parent, it is said to be h o m o z y g o u s. If the alleles differ, it is h e t e r o z y g o u s.

New generations are better suited to their environment than the first generation. What is this called?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Descent with modification

Explanation:

We define evolution as descent with modification from a common ancestor.

Evolution only occurs when there is a change in gene frequency within a population over time. These genetic differences are hereditary and can be passed on to the next generation - which is what really matters in evolution: long-term change. In this process, the new generations are better suited to their environment than the first generation because of descent with genetic modification.
