The given mutation of the DNA segment ctc ctc ttc to ctc ctt ttc is a known type of mutation in the gene for beta-globin. The translated protein remains unchanged because both the CTT and CTC codons code for the amino acid glutamic acid.
Answer:
- The Island population likely has fewer alleles-that is versions of genes-than the mainland population.
A- Agree <u>B- Disagree</u>
- Genetic drift is more pronounced in the island population than in the mainland population in these first few generations
A- Agree <u>B- Disagree</u>
- Some harmful traits may have become more common in the island population than in the mainland population
<u>A- Agree</u>- B- Disagree
- Biologist observed genetic drift but not evolution
<u>A- Agree</u> B- Disagree
Explanation:
If there was genetic drift, then allele frequency either increased or decreased by chance, irrespective of natural selection that is irrespective to weather those alleles helped individuals survive in the island environment. In molecular genetic data, there are statistical signature in the population variation that indicate weather selection or other processes occurred.
“The test of any theory is whether or not it provides answers to basic questions. Some well-meaning but misguided people think evolution is a reasonable theory to explain man’s questions about the universe.”Where did the space for the universe come from? Witch can be experimented to answer.
