Looking for someone in 10th grade biology? How can I help you.
A) A textbook definition would be that genetic drift is: a random change in allele frequency caused by a series of chance occurences that cause an allele to become more or less common in a population. In layman's terms, this means that genetic drift happens when luck makes the genetic pool of the population to deviate from what is expected.
B) The cause for this genetic drift is the aformentioned couple. Because amish communities are small and they select partners from their community, having even a couple of carriers of alleles in a community can make the allele freuency much larger than expected; for example, if the community was 100 persons, the percentage would be in the order of 1%, still much larger than the general population. Thus, the cause here is that a small population had a couple of carriers.
C) Sexual reproduction leads to a mixing of alleles from both mother and father and helps diversity. When a population is isolated, the gene pool is fixed and no new genes can come in, reducing diversity. Also some people that have an allele might die, hitting diversity even more. Finally, having a small population creates a strong pressure in some circumstances that leads to elimination of some traits and diversity.
As the action potential passes through, potassium channels stay open a little bit longer, and continue to let positive ions exit the neuron. This means that the cell temporarily hyperpolarizes, or gets even more negative than its resting state.
Just take out the fluff.
Plants that are fertilized with fish meal will be healthier for plants than the plants that receive artificial fertilizer.
Or make one of those If, Then, Because statements.
If a plant is fertilized with fish meal rather than artificial fertilizer, then the plants will be overall healthier because fish meal is natural compared to the artificial fertilizer.
Answer:
a pigment metabolite from the destruction of hemoglobin
Explanation:
Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced during the normal breakdown of hemoglobin as red blood cells die.
