This range shows overdominance because heterozygous individuals make a mixture of two proteins with different optimums. Overdominance is a genetic phenomenon.

<h3>Overdominance and genetics</h3>

Overdominance is a phenomenon that occurs when the phenotype of a heterozygous individual is found outside the range of homo-zygous individuals.

This phenomenon (overdominance) is relatively common in genetics.

Overdominance confers an adaptive advantage to heterozygous individuals.

Why is the ability of the cell membrane to be "picky" important?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

It is very important for the cell membrane to be <em>semi-permeable</em> because the ability to pick and choose what comes in and out of the cell keeps the cell safe! The membrane can choose to block out nasty germs and can also choose to get rid of internal waste.

An example of when this is important is in this scenario:

Let's say the cells are in a really salty solution. Naturally, salt will want to pull the water out of the cell. If the membrane <u>wasn't</u><u> </u> semi permeable, the water would listen to the salt and leave the cell. This would cause cell death. <u>BECAU</u><u>SE</u> the membrane is semi permeable, they can choose <em>not</em> to give the salt any water, keeping them alive

Hope this helps
