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.
Answer:
3/8
Explanation:
Martha has a widow's peak (dominant trait) and attached earlobes (recessive trait).
Martha's dad had a straight hairline (ww) and unattached earlobes (Ee, because she has the recessive alleles ee and both parents give us one allele).
This tells you that martha has a mother with at least one of both alleles dominant for widow peak and at least one recesive allele of attached earlobes
So, martha's alleles are: Ww and ee.
If she marries a man that is heterozygous for both traits (Ww and Ee) the probabilitys are
Ww Ee x Ww ee: WWEe, WwEe, wWee, and wwee
Selective selection,since being smaller is an advantage the rabbits got smaller similar to evolution
Answer:
Evolution
Explanation:
Evolution – change over time. It is the process by which modern organisms have descended from ancient organisms. Current scientific facts, observations and hypotheses all combine to create current evolutionary theory – which is a well-supported, testable explanation of the biological diversity on Earth.
