In a species of walruses, tusk size is controlled by a single gene that has only two alleles. The same species lives on two diff

erent sides of the Arctic Ocean. On one side, the amount of ice is much thicker and requires for walruses to have longer tusks to move out of the water. On the other side, the ice is not as thick and walruses have shorter tusks. Which of the following best describes the walruses in the two populations?
Adaptive alleles that are beneficial in one environment can be deleterious in another, due to selective pressures.
The species will eventually develop an intermediate tusk size in both populations.
The alleles of both populations will undergo directional selection to have the similar gene pools.
The species will risk decline if they continue to differ in allele frequencies and genetic diversity.

Exercising causing ___________
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

c. increase HDL levels

Explanation:

Cholesterol is carried in blood in two ways, LDL and HDL. Both of them are lipoproteins made of fat and protein. LDL or Low Density Lipoprotein has 50% cholesterol and 25% protein by weight. HDL or High Density Lipoprotein has 20% cholesterol and 50 % protein. LDL carries cholesterol to arteries and deposits it there which is not good for the body. HDL on the other hand removes excess cholesterol from body via liver.

Aerobic exercise increases HDL values and lowers LDL values. It has been shown that exercising regularly can increase HDL level by 6% which is good for the overall health of the body. For maximum effect 30 minutes of moderate exercise should be done 5 times a week.
