Which graph most likely represents a rabbit population that found a new, larger habitat, but then eventually experienced an
klio [65]

The graph will have a sharp curve in upwards manner when the new, larger habitat is found, but than will be followed by slight decrease when the predation increases.

Explanation:

If a population of rabbits finds a new, larger habitat, than the population will experience rapid rise, especially if there isn't high scale predation on them. This will be due to the abundant food resources, but also because of the fast reproduction of the rabbits. The low predation will mean that most of the rabbits will survive, so the numbers will be on the rise.

When the population starts to experience in increase in predation, the situation changes. The larger number of predators means that they would need much more food, so much more rabbits will be killed and consumed by the predators. This will stop the population rise, and it will either stagnate, or most probably it will experience slight decline.

Generally speaking, which of the following mutations would most severely affect the protein coded for by a gene?a) a base substi
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Answer is C.

Explanation:

For A and B, a base substitution affects one of the three bases that comprise a codon, the DNA/RNA unit that corresponds to a particular amino acid. If one base is substituted, one codon and therefore one amino acid will be affected. Codons have built-in redundancy, so even by changing one base, the new codon sometimes still corresponds to the same amino acid. Therefore, a base substitution at most affects one amino acid, and sometimes doesn't affect it all.

Frameshift mutations cause a lot more trouble. These occur when you have a deletion or insertion that changes the number of bases in your gene. As a result, the "frame" of the codons changes (everything shifts one way or the other by the number of bases added/removed). This affects EVERY codon downstream of the mutation, so you can imagine that such a mutation would have a bigger effect the closer to the start of the gene it occurs. This is why C is correct.
