Answer:
A homozygous dominant trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles of a gene are the dominant one. For example, the AA genotype of the 80 brown gerbils.
A heterozygous trait can be described as the trait in which one of the alleles is dominant and the other is recessive. For example, the Aa genotype of the 64 brown gerbils.
A recessive trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles are recessive. For example, the aa genotype of the black gerbils.
The completed table is shown in the attachment.
That is exactly what binary fission means
Answer:
(2) 8 ºC
Explanation:
The range of the temperatures from the uppermost layers of the ocean - around 100 to 150 m -, which in this case is 125 m, is not always constant as they fluctuate due to the atmospheric heating and cooling, and also due to seasonal variations.
However, if we base our answer on the table below, we would determinate that the approximate water temperature at a depth of 125 meters is 8 ºC (2). This is because, if we observe, the temperature at 100 m is 12 ºC, while at 150 m is 5 ºC. Therefore, the temperature at 125 m should be higher than 5 ºC and lower than 12 ºC, that is 8 ºC.
Answer:
Selection is a directional process that leads to an increase or a decrease in the frequency of genes or genotypes. Selection is the process that increases the frequencies of plant resistance alleles in natural ecosystems through coevolution, and it is the process that increases the frequencies of virulence alleles in agricultural ecosystems during boom and bust cycles.
Selection occurs in response to a specific environmental factor. It is a central topic of population and evolutionary biology. The consequence of natural selection on the genetic structure and evolution of organisms is complicated. Natural selection can decrease the genetic variation in populations of organisms by selecting for or against a specific gene or gene combination (leading to directional selection). It can increase the genetic variation in populations by selecting for or against several genes or gene combinations (leading to disruptive selection or balancing selection). Natural selection might lead to speciation through the accumulation of adaptive genetic differences among reproductively isolated populations. Selection can also prevent speciation by homogenizing the population genetic structure across all locations.
Selection in plant pathology is mainly considered in the framework of gene-for-gene coevolution. Plant pathologists often think in terms of Van der Plank and his concept of "stabilizing selection" that would operate against pathogen strains with unnecessary virulence. As we will see shortly, Van der Plank used the wrong term, as he was actually referring to directional selection against unneeded virulence alleles.
