Two models for the speed of speciation are based on patterns in the fossil record. Which of the following statements describes t

he punctuated equilibrium model of evolution? Natural selection is unimportant as a mechanism of evolution. Most evolution occurs in sympatric populations. Given enough time, most existing species will gradually branch into new species. Species accumulate their unique features rapidly, then change little for the duration of the species.

Wheat has flowers similar to those in Fig. 5.1, but reproduces by self-pollination. Explain the consequences of self-pollination
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The transfer of mature pollen grain from anther of the flower to the stigma of the same flower of the same [species  is called self pollination.

Generally, the transfer of pollen grains by wind,animals,and water  to stigmas is called pollination. It is a means of vegetative propagation which ensures reproduction.

Therefore during self pollination, the same genes are distributed  from one generation to another. Thus genetic purity is ensured. It also ensured reproductive success. because there is little chance of the pollen grain getting lost in transit. It is also certain  a particular plant would always breed true.

Additionally it prevent  the process of transfer of genes in some transgenic crops( rice, maize) where through genetic engineering some genes are introduced in their genome.

The only negative effect is lack of genetic diversity. Therefore after a period of time the plants get  weak and prone to diseases and infection. Because of poor resistant from lack of variation.

Which of the following events occurs during Meiosis I? The number of chromosomes increases from the haploid number to the diploi
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Homologous chromosomes are separated from each other.

Explanation:

In meiosis I during metaphase, all the homologous chromosomes of the cell pair up and get arranged near equatorial plate. Subsequently after completion of meiosis I, these  homologous chromosomes get separated from each other so that out of the two cells which are produced after meiosis I could get one chromosome each from the homologous pair. During anaphase I of meiosis I, spindle fibres are formed which drag each of these homologous chromosomes towards two opposite poles. Soon after that, cytokinesis occurs during telophase I of meiosis I leading to the generation of two cells.  

For example, humans have 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes. After completion of meiosis I, two cells are produced and each one of them has 23 chromosomes.
