Describe a hypothetical result of the fluctuation test that would have supported the hypothesis that mutations occur in response

to an environmental challenge, and explain how this result was different from the observed result described above

In order to support the hypothesis that mutations occur in response to an environmental challenge, the experiment in question would have to show an increase in mutation rates shortly after the environmental challenge was introduced.

When we test a hypothesis, we perform an experiment and gather data over the course of the testing. In order to obtain evidence that supports a hypothesis, we have to ensure that only one variable is changing and be sure to repeat the experiment to confirm the values measured.

Taking this into account, a hypothetical result of the fluctuation test that would support the hypothesis of mutations in reaction to environmental challenges would be to measure a spike in mutation rates in the generation following an environmental challenge, and then continue to do so with future post-challenge generations.

Which of the following are usually density dependent factors (choose any/all that apply):
ahrayia [7]

Answer: a. disease

b. food availability

d. reproductive success

f. predation

g. light availability (to plants)

h. physical space

Explanation:

The density dependent factors are the factors which effects the population of a species depending upon it's size or growth. The following are the density dependent factors.

a. disease: A disease is a density dependent factor this is because of the fact that a disease can spread directly when the population size is large.

b. food availability: With the increase in the size of the population will increase the demand for food. This can cause scarcity of food, the population will decline.

d. reproductive success: The increase in the size of population will increase the likelihood of mating success hence, this will support reproductive success.

f. predation: The large population of prey will attract the population of predators hence, the population of the prey will decrease due to large density.

g. light availability (to plants): The increase in plants typically of tall height can affect the light availability to the small plants.Thus the population of small plants will die due to the fact that they will not receive sunlight.

h. physical space: The physical space is the area occupied by the organism as a habitat. With the increase in density of the population of a species the competition for physical space will increase which will lead to the decline in the size of the population.

HELP PLZZ<br><br> is interphase part of meiosis??
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Yes, Inter phase is considered as part of meiosis.

Explanation:

Normally a cell undergoes division by two methods of cell division namely mitosis and meiosis. While the procedures of mitosis and meiosis have many variations, they are some points of similarities too.

One of the points is that the two procedures have a development period called <em>Inter phase</em>, in which the <em>genetic material</em> as well as the<em> organelles</em> of the cell <em>replicates</em> and moves to next phase of the cell division. Thus interphase is considered as part of meiosis.
