For example: GGATACCTAGGTAAT
Insertion: GGAT<u>G</u>ACCTAGGTAAT
a nucleotide that was not present before is inserted into the original sequence
Substitution: <u>C</u>GATACCTAGGTAAT
the first nucleotide was substituted in for another (C for G)
Frameshift (basically a insertion or deletion, we'll try deletion here): GATACCTAGGTAAT
the first nucleotide was deleted, causing the reading frame to be shifted (instead of GGA as the first codon, we have GAT)
Potential energy=PE
PE=mgh
m=mass in kilograms.
g=9.8 m/s
h=height in meters
Data:
mass=500 Kg
h=110 m
PE=(500 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(110 m)=539000 joules
Answer:
C) The smaller population will be more affected than will the larger population, because the smaller population has less genetic variation than the larger population has.
Explanation:
Genetic variations are present in the natural populations. Some of the genetic traits become adaptive under the changed environmental conditions and allow the individuals carrying them to survive and reproduce. In this way, the genetic variations help to maintain a population.
Therefore, a larger population of a squirrel species with more genetic variations will have less intense impacts of a disturbance/natural calamity and/disease. On the other hand, a smaller population of the same species with a lesser number of squirrels has fewer genetic variations. This population is more likely to be affected in a negative way by a disturbance such as pathogen.
