Urban development increases demand for _________, especially after large storms or floods. Many islands are formed from underwat

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1. seawalls

2. volcanic

3. mass wasting

4. ocean basin

5. erosion

Explanation:

6. Reefs form from volcanic activity on an island in the ocean. This initially forms a fringing reef, but sea level rise can cause the reef to lie farther out from the island, forming a barrier reef. If the island ever subsides below sea level, the reef is called an atoll.

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

A = Activator

B = Effector

Explanation:

An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.

But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.

A genetically heterogeneous population of rice has a mean in the number of days to maturation of 30. Selection for decreased per

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

h² = 0.6

Explanation:

Before answering the question, we need to know a few concepts.

Artificial selection is the selecting practice of a specific group of organisms in a population -that carry the traits of interest- to be the parents of the following generations.

Parental individuals carrying phenotypic values of interest are selected from the whole population. These parents interbreed, and a new generation is produced.

The selection differential, SD, is the difference between the mean value of the trait in the population (X₀) and the mean value of the parents, (Xs). So,

SD = X₀ - Xs

Heritability in the strict sense, h², is the genetic component measure to which additive genetic variance contributes. The heritability might be used to determine how the population will respond to the selection done, R.

h² = R/SD

The response to selection (R) refers to the metric value gained from the cross between the selected parents. R can be calculated by multiplying the heritability h², with the selection differential, SD.

R = h²SD

R also equals the difference between the new generation phenotypic value (X₁) and the original population phenotypic value (X₀),

R = X₀ - X₁

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we know these concepts and how to calculate them, we can solve the proposed problem.

Available data:

You are selecting rice´s decreased period of maturation.
The population of rice has a mean maturation time of 30 days → X₀
Parental selected average period to maturation is 25 days → Xs
F1 plants mature on average in 27 days → X₁
N arrow sense Heritability → h²

According to what we sow previously, we need to find out the value of h².

We know that h² = R/SD, so we need to get R and SD first.

R = X₁ - X₀

R = 27 - 30

R = -3

SD = Xs - X₀

SD = 25 - 30

SD = -5

Knowing this, we can calculate h²

h² = R/SD

h² = -3/-5

h² = 0.6
