Answer:

The correct answer is option D, that is regular or uniform.

Explanation:

The individuals in a population can be spaced in a distinct manner known as the dispersion patterns. The most common arrangement is the clumped dispersion in which these individuals are clustered together. In random dispersion, the individuals are aligned randomly, and in uniform or regular dispersion, the individuals are spaced evenly.  

The given case is an illustration of regular or uniform distribution. It is less common in comparison to clumped distribution. The pattern of uniform or regular distribution is witnessed in the populations of the species in which the distance between the adjacent individuals is enhanced. The requirement to enhance or increase the space between the individuals usually originates due to competition for a resource like nutrients or moisture.

A plant breeder has determined the following variances for yield of corn in his fields:
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

A. VG = 80

B. Broad sense heritability = 0.80

C. Narrow sense heritability = 0.30

D. Average yield = 430 Units

Explanation:

A. Given that

VA = 30

VD = 50

VI = assumed not available

Therefore

Total genetic variance (VG) = VA + VD

= 30 + 50

= 80

VG = 80

B. Given that

VP = 100

VG = 80

Broad sense heritability, H2 = VG/VP

= 80/100

= 0.80

C. Given that

VA = 30

VP = 100

Narrow sense heritability, h2 = VA/VP

=30/100

= 0.30

D. The difference in selection = 500 - 400

= 100

Recall,

Selection response is heritability multiplied by selection differential.

That is

R = h2S

Selection differential = 100

Heritability h2 = 0.30

Selection response = 0.30 × 100

= 30units

Therefore, expected average yield = 400 + 30

= 430 Units
