Amoeba sisters video recap: Genetic Drift

Biology
1 answer:
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Genetic drift is simply a change in the frequency of alleles in a population.

Like shown in the comic A, there are different genes present on chromosomes. All of these genes are made up of a pair of alleles. These alleles determine the genotype and the resulting phenotype of an organism.

If none of the alleles is favored by the environment, then a population will have equal no.of all the variant forms of a trait. Like shown in the comic B, both the green and the grey animals are favored equally.

But if natural selection occurs and one form of the allele variant is favored, then a genetic drift will occur. Most of the organisms will have the alleles which are favored by the environment. Like shown in Comic C, where the grey alleles are favored more than the green alleles.

What are the steps of cellular respiration?
ivanzaharov [21]
<span>In chronological order, the four steps of cellular respiration are glycolysis, a transition reaction, the Krebs Cycle and an electron transport chain. Cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm and in the mitochondria.

</span><span>Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, and it allows one glucose molecule to split into two molecules of pyruvic acid. Next, the transition reaction moves the pyruvic acid into the mitochondria, where it is converted into acetyl coenzyme A. Next, the Krebs Cycle occurs in the mitochondria and produces four molecules of ammonium triphosphate and numerous molecules of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Finally, the electron transport chain in the mitochondria produces approximately 32 molecules of ATP and finishes the process of cellular respiration. In total, approximately 38 molecules of ATP are produced for every molecule of glucose.</span>

Answer:

B.) The atoms in the molecules before the photosynthesis reaction were rearranged to create new molecules

Explanation:

Choice A and D are just flat out wrong. While choice C seems more opinionated. I don't know the exact facts behind choice C, since it's been a while since the last time I took Bio, but the question asks what can you conclude from the DIAGRAM. Which means that basic test taking skills would rule out choice C, since there's no way that you can determine which element is the most "important" in that diagram—or any scientific diagram tbh lol it'd just be uncharacteristic.
