The answer is genetic drift (bottleneck effect)
<span>There are 4 basic mechanisms of evolution - mutation, genetic drift, natural selection, and gene flow (migration). Genetic drift is a change in the frequency of alleles in a population as a result of random sampling of organisms. One of the examples of genetic drift is the bottleneck event. </span>The bottleneck event means drastic reduction of the population size because of environment changes. The consequence of this is the reduction of genetic variation. This is what happened to the population of worms after tree falling.
Answer:
160
Explanation:
If p = frequency of dominant allele and q = frequency of recessive allele according to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,
p + q = 1
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
where p² = frequency of dominant homozygous genotype
q² = frequency of recessive homozygous genotype
2pq = frequency of heterozygous genotype
Here,
b = 4% = 0.04
bb = 0.04 * 0.04 = 0.0016
Number of individuals in population = 100000
Number of homozygous bb individuals = 0.0016 * 100000 = 160
Answer:
Explanation:
Selection breeding is use to identify individual with good physical characteristics that can be used as parent in next generation. Brown, yellow, green grasshoppers are the distinct phenotypic characteristics of an individual hence selection will be individual base. Such that brown individual will be selected, green selected seperated and yellow will also selected. The organism that shows the best fits are often been selected depending on the objects of the selection
The answer is commensalism.
<span>Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms in which only
one of them has benefit, and the other one is not affected. In this example, the Great Burdock's plants spread their seeds using animals, so they benefit from this relationship. On the other hand, animals neither have benefits not are harmed from the relationship.
Therefore, the relationship between </span><span>the Great Burdock plants and animals is the example of commensalism.</span>
Answer:
balanced forces dont result in a change of motion. Unbalanced forces always result in a change of motion
if the forces applied are different amounts of newton's it causes an unbalanced force changing motion or even direction
