<u>Answer:</u>
Limited resources contribute to evolutionary change in animals by increasing Intra-specific competition.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Intra-specific competition means competition among the members of same species.
- Individual of same species have same ecological niche i.e. how an organism is related with biotic and abiotic aspect of environment.
- So they require same resources of their survival. When population of any species increases then there is high chance of intra-specific competition because of limited resources.
- Intra-specific competition also determine the population size of species. For example, competition among shark rodents.
Answer:
1. Allele frequency of b = 0.09 (or 9%)
2. Allele frequency of B = 0.91 (0.91%)
3. Genotype frequency of BB = 0.8281 (or 82.81%)
4. Genotype frequency of Bb = 0.1638 (or 16.38%)
Explanation:
Given that:
p = the frequency of the dominant allele (represented here by B) = 0.91
q = the frequency of the recessive allele (represented here by b) = 0.09
For a population in genetic equilibrium:
p + q = 1.0 (The sum of the frequencies of both alleles is 100%.)
(p + q)^2 = 1
Therefore:
p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1
in which:
p^2 = frequency of BB (homozygous dominant)
2pq = frequency of Bb (heterozygous)
q^2 = frequency of bb (homozygous recessive)
p^2 = 0.91^2 = 0.8281
2pq = 2(0.91)(0.9) = 0.1638
To white things because it blends in
