During a recent hurricane, 25 individuals of the same butterfly species were blown onto a barrier island in southern Florida. Pr

ior to this event, this species did not inhabit the island, but with the ample vegetation on the island and a lack of predators, the displaced individuals were able to survive and reproduce. When the butterflies initially arrived on the island, they did not have to compete for food or space. What type of population growth did they likely exhibit

Answer: Exponential

Explanation:

The main requirement for the population of a species to grow is food. When there is food, a organisms that are born will be able to live longer because food will be able to sustain them.

This is what happened with humans during the Neolithic Revolution when we began farming.

The general trend is that the more food that is available, the higher the population growth. When these butterflies arrived and found no competition for food, their population would increase in the highest way possible which is exponentially because there would be plenty of food to go around.

Answer:

Exponential growth

Explanation:

Without any competition for food or space, the butterfly species likely experienced exponential growth.

The lack of competition would have allowed the population to flourish, as they would have excess amounts of resources, food, space, and other limiting factors.

So, they most likely exhibited exponential growth.

what role will nature selection most likely have in the frequency of the alleles responsible for the presence of tissue pockets
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Through natural selection, those organisms which have better adaptations to survive in an environment are able to live and pass on their alleles to their offsprings. Hence, any trait which is beneficial to an organism will be favoured by natural selection.

As tissue pockets is a trait which is required by the shrimps, hence with the passage of time shrimp population having tissue pockets will increase and will be favoured by nature.

Explanation:

Gametes are produced by mitosis (not meiosis) and after fertilization a diploid zygote is created. The single zygote cell never grows or divides my mitosis. It can only divide by meiosis to produce haploid cells once more, which then produce the main adult body.

Whats the defenition of heat ?
Morgarella [4.7K]
Heat in Physics is an energy that is in a process of transfer between a system and its surroundings other than the transfer of matter. In  Thermodynamics,  a science that deals with the study of heat and temperature and their relationship to energy and work, finer details of the process is unpredictable. Heat flows from a hotter to a colder body when there is a physical pathway. This pathway is suitable and can be direct such as radiation and conduction. It can also be indirect as in convective circulation.

I had to look for the options and the answer for this would be HOMOZYGOUS RECESSIVE. Basing on the description above regarding pigmented skin called albinism, the genotype of this kind of individual is homozygous recessive. Hope this answers your question.
