Question continuation;
..........type B. Type A is found to be more common in the mainland population from which the island was settled.
How could a geneticist best explain the dominance of blood type B in the island population?
Multiple choices;
A. Random mutations have occurred in the island population.
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
C. Natural selection has only occurred in the mainland population.
D. Environmental conditions on the island are less favorable for type B individuals.
Answer;
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
Explanation;
-Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution in which allele frequencies of a population change over generations due to chance.
-It occurs in all populations of non-infinite size, but its effects are strongest in small populations.
Ans.
Diffusion, osmosis, and active transport are mechanism of cellular transport that involves movement of molecules through plasma membrane. Diffusion shows movement of small, hydrophobic particles without the help of protein molecules through cell membrane along the concentration gradient.
Osmosis involves movement of water molecules against concentration gradient (from an area of high solvent concentration to an area of low solvent concentration) through cell membrane.
Active transport shows movement of particles, against the concentration gradient, means from a region of higher to lower concentration of molecules through cell membrane. It involves transport through membrane proteins.
Thus, the part of cell, which is affected by the movement of molecules through osmosis, diffusion, and active transport is cell membrane or plasma membrane.
It has been linked to lung cancer.

Answer:
The various stages of development in children are reached at a unique time and rate for every child. But there are a number of common key categories to consider when looking at your child’s early health and development. Explanation:
In infancy, toddlerhood, and early childhood, the body’s physical development is rapid (Figure 1). On average, newborns weigh between 5 and 10 pounds, and a newborn’s weight typically doubles in six months and triples in one year. By 2 years old the weight will have quadrupled, so we can expect that a 2 year old should weigh between 20 and 40 pounds.
