How do mountains play a role in precipitation patterns like ?

Biology

statuscvo [17]3 years ago

Mountains can have a significant effect on rainfall. When air reaches the mountains, it is forced to rise over this barrier. As the air moves up the windward side of a mountain, it cools, and the volume decreases. As a result, humidity increases and orographic clouds and precipitation can develop.

Describe the building blocks (monomers) of proteins?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The building blocks of proteins are amino acids, which contain elements such as H,N,O,C , and more. They are the monomers of the proteins. So, the monomer will be the amino acids, and the polymer will be the proteins themselves

Answer:

The offsprings of this punnet square will be Dd, Dd, dd and dd in a ratio 1Dd : 1dd

See attached image for punnet square completion

Explanation:

This question involves a cross involving a single gene with alleles D and d where allele D is dominant over allele d i.e. D will mask the phenotypic expression of d in a heterozygous state.

This cross is between a heterozygous parent (Dd) and a homozygous recessive parent (dd). Parent Dd will produce gametes D and d while parent dd will produce gametes d and d.

Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with two distinct genotypes will be produced. The genotypes are: Dd and dd in a ratio 1:1

Hence, the possibility of having a heterozygous dominant offspring is 1/2 while the possibility of having a homozygous recessive offspring is also 1/2.

By the early 1980s, the population of Florida panthers had dwindled to fewer than 30. Furthermore, within this population was a
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The population suffered a genetic bottleneck, which decreased genetic variation and thereby randomly increasing the frequency of harmful alleles

Explanation:

A population bottleneck, also known as genetic bottleneck, can be defined as a drastic reduction in the size of a population, which may be caused by anthropic activity and/or environmental phenomena (e.g., earthquakes, famines, fires, droughts, etc). A genetic bottleneck leads to a reduction in genetic variability within a population. Moreover, the genetic drifit caused by a genetic bottleneck can also increase the frequency of harmful alleles/mutations (it is due to the random sampling of individuals), thereby increasing the frequency of deleterious alleles/mutations in the population.
