A natural levee is formed when a movement of water pushes sediment to the side of rivers and creeks. This creates a slight elevation on the sides, making it taller than the river bed. Materials that make up a natural levee typically include sediment and slit.

In prokaryotes new mutations accumulate quickly in populations, while in eukaryotes new mutations accumulate much more slowly.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In Prokaryotes the the rate of new mutations is much more as compared to the eukaryotes. The rate of accumulation of mutation is slow in case of  eukaryote because their generation is long as compared to prokaryotes.

Prokaryotes have short generation time and large population size which enables them to accumulate the mutation quickly.

The machinery is also not that complex when it comes to prokaryotes. Transduction, conjugation and tranposable elements. So, the changes during these processes leads to mutation in the prokaryotes and can be observed quickly due to their small generation.

How closely do Mendel insights into dominant and recessives traits match up with the ratios that punnett calculated in his Punne
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Perfectly in theory, except there is chance involved

Explanation:

The Punnet square is a diagram that allows scientists to predict the possible outcomes of the offspring when the genotypes of the parents are known. This is in line with Mendel's principles, and from a theoretical point of view would match up perfectly. However, it all works based on <em>probability</em>.

However, inheritance is always down to chance. Of your parents 2 alleles, you always have 50:50 chance of inheriting one of the allele. Overall, this is what is predicted in punnet squares.

However, think about flipping a coin. There is always 50:50 chance of getting heads, but that doesn't mean it is impossible to flip a coin and get tails 10 x in a row. It is just less likely. So in reality, observations might deviate from the theory.
