The gene frequency for a particular trait in a population was determined to be 80% A (dominant allele) and 20% a (recessive alle

le). Fifty years later, the gene frequency was determined to be 60% A and 40% a. What does this change most likely indicate about the gene pool?

Answer:

Explanation:

Microevolution is a change in the frequency of gene variants, alleles, in a population, typically occurring over a relatively short time period.

Population genetics is the field of biology that studies allele frequencies in populations and how they change over time.

Allele frequency refers to how common an allele is in a population. It is determined by counting how many times the allele appears in the population then dividing by the total number of copies of the gene.

The gene pool of a population consists of all the copies of all the genes in that population.

what percentage of the energy flowing through primary producers is ultimately transferred to secondary consumers?
Finger [1]
<span>Energy transfer is the transmission of food energy from organism to the next which is illustrated as the food chain. Normally and typically, the autotrophs are the photosynthetic organisms that primary makes food for itself and for other organisms. </span><span>Hypothetically, we can assume that about 6000 kilocalories per square meter per year these autotrophs can collect and store energy.</span><span> Primary consumers like omnivores such as deer, cow, birds and etc. receive almost 10% as much from these autotrophs. </span><span>Secondary consumers receive for as much as 1% of the total energy that was from the autotrophs.   </span>
