Biology

Paha777 [63]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Evolution is not a random process. The genetic variation on which natural selection acts may occur randomly, but natural selection itself is not random at all. The survival and reproductive success of an individual is directly related to the ways its inherited traits function in the context of its local environment.

In a particular population of mice, certain individuals display a phenotype called "short tail," which is inherited as a dominan
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The "short tail" dominant allele is easier to eliminate by selective breeding.

Explanation:

The only way for a recessive allele to be expressed (be visible) is when it appears as recessive homozygotic. These means the organisms need to have 2 copies of the gene. Selective breeding is based on the characteristics that one can see, so if the organism shows the "dilute" phenotype you can keep reproducing this individuals and get rid of the dominant allele.

On the other hand if you have a population with the dominant phenotype, you discard all the ones that have a recessive trait and you breed the dominant phenotype you could still get individuals with the recessive phenotype and individuals that express the dominant phenotype but are heterozygous.

What level of protein structure is created during protein syntheisis?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be - Primary structure

Explanation:

Proteins are one of the biomolecules formed by the process of translation.

Depending on the function they attain many structures like primary, secondary, tertiary and Quaternary structure.

The primary structure is the simplest structure formed by binding the amino acids via peptide bonds in linear order. This simplest structure is formed by the process of translation in which tRNA brings specific amino acids to the nascent peptide.

Thus, Primary structure is the correct answer.
