Consider a flower population that produces different sizes of blooms and depends on bees for reproduction. Large blooms attract

larger bees; small blooms attract smaller bees. Describe how changes in the bee population might lead to disruptive, stabilizing, and directional selection in the flowers.

The parallel evolution of flowering plants and pollinators represents a case of coevolution. It may lead to different types of natural selection.

<h3>Disruptive, stabilizing, and directional selection</h3>

Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that favors extreme phenotypes (in this case, flowers too small or too big).

Stabilizing selection is a type of selection that leads to decreased genetic variation  (in this case, all red flowers to attract pollinators)

Finally, directional selection is a type of natural selection where an extreme phenotype can be favored (in this case, taller plants to be noted by bees).

Which listed transfusion reaction is most often associated with transfused patient's lacking iga?
IgorC [24]
The most common transfusion reaction, especially in patients lacking either IgA especially serum IgA, is the development of potentially severe hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylaxis. The most probable culprit is the presence of IgA in the transfused blood, because since the individual lacks IgA, then the IgA in the transfused blood is considered a foreign body triggering an allergic response.

What kind of mutation would occur if a sequence of DNA is changed from ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Base substitution mutation

Explanation:

Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:

ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG

This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.
