When is genetic drift a major factor in evolution?

Biology

Alex777 [14]2 years ago

Answer:

B) when there is no selective pressure

Explanation:

Genetic drift refers to a chance act acting over genetic variations or alleles previously distributed evenly over a population, drastically altering the distribution. For example, if I had 100 rabbits with coats white, brown, gray and black and suddenly a disease broke that killed all my black and brown rabbits, the genetic variation allowing for brown and black coats would have disappeared. This is a chance act, as the black and brown rabbits were not intentionally affected. Also there was no selective pressure for rabbits to develop one coat color, that's why the genetic variation was distributed evenly. This is different from artificial selection, as the eradication of black and brown coats was due to a random event, we did not select the coat color like people do for artificial selection.

Which of the following statements is correct with respect to bryophyte development?
Darina [25.2K]

 

<span>The answer is Haploid spores germinate to give rise to protonema, which later develops into a sporophyte.</span>

A protonema (plural: protonemata) is a thread-like chain of cells that forms the earliest stage (the haploid phase) of a bryophyte life cycle..
<span>A haploid gametophyte ( each of whose cells contains a fixed number of unpaired </span>chromosomes)  gives rise to a <span>diploid sporophyte</span>,. Gametophytes produce haploid sperm and eggs which fuse to form diploid zygotes that grow into sporophytes.

Transcription of DNA in eukaryotes is different from transcription in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes a gene that is transcribed make
vekshin1

Answer: Exons

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cell the primary transcript are very long the contains coding region (exons) and non coding region (introns)

The parts of the gene sequence that are expressed (coding region) in the protein are called exons, because they are expressed, while the parts of the gene sequence that are not expressed in the protein are called introns, because they come in between the exons.

Intron is a portion of a gene that does not code for amino acids. These Intron sequence are cleaved out and exons are spliced (I. E combine together) to form the mature mRNA molecule.

Exons are the mRNA parts that are kept and used to make protein.
