Potassium holds an important function in both cell and energy-related functions. Potassium is considered to be one of the important blood minerals. Potassium regulates the balance of both water and acid in our blood and body tissues. Food which are high in potassium include white beans, spinach, plain yogurt, broccoli, sweet potato milk, bacon, oranges and many more. One should avoid the excessive intake of salt because too much intake of salt in the body may cause complications or illnesses in our body.

Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation? A. Disruptive selection B. Directional selection C. Stabilizing sel
aliina [53]

Answer:

Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation? A. Disruptive selection B. Directional selection C. Stabilizing selection

The Answer is option A (Disruptive selection)

Explanation:

Selection can either shift the mean value of a trait, reduce the trait's variation, or increase its variation.

Genetic variation which allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population is a source of phenotypic variation as it refers to differences in all the hereditary information of members of the same species.

Disruptive Selection is important in maintaining variation and initiating speciation as it Increases Variation by favoring alleles corresponding to more extreme phenotypes. But for it to occur, the mean phenotype has to experience the lowest fitness. Disruptive selection affects the frequency distributions of alleles and genotypes within a population.

Disruptive selection is based on the variance of a trait in a population as it increases genetic variance by equalizing the frequencies of existing alleles at polymorphic loci (a genetic loci with two or more alleles). Disruptive selection maintains and may even increase variation in natural populations by favoring extreme phenotypes, individuals with extreme values for a trait have greater reproductive success than individuals with intermediate values.

How do baroreceptor reflexes would respond to a fall in blood pressure?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Barroreceptors are specific type of receptors that are present within the membrane or wells of the blood vessels and monitor the changes occur in blood pressure.

The major and important barroreceptors are located in carotid sinus and the aorta for detecting fluctuation in the blood pressure. If blood pressure falls these receptors firing rate decreases and barroceptors reflexes act to increase heart rate in order to restore blood pressure in an individual.

Thus, the correct answer would be - increasing heart rate.
