Describe why certain traits increase in frequency in a population. Provide ONE example to support your response.

Answers

Answer:

When a phenotype produced by certain alleles helps organisms survive and reproduce better than their peers, natural selection can increase the frequency of the helpful alleles from one generation to the next – that is, it can cause microevolution.

Explanation:

Because of having dominant traits certain traits increase in frequency in a population because they have.

What are traits?

A phenotypic trait is a specific variant of an organism's observable characteristics. Phenotype refers to any measurable, observable and obvious characteristics of an organism. It can be either hereditary or environmental, but usually occurs as a collection of both.

When any allele tends to determine the phenotype, when passed from parent to child, it called as dominant allele. In case of  homzygosity as well as heterozygosity, dominant allele can express itself.

Recessive in contrast is, when genotype is homozygous, the trait expressed is referred to as recessive trait. Therefore, certain traits increase in frequency in a population.

A breeder is trying to decrease the maturation time in a population of sunflowers. In this population, the mean time to flowering is 100 days. Plants with a mean flowering time of only 90 days were used to produce the next generation. If the narrow-sense heritability for flowering time is 0.2, what will the average time to flowering be in the next generation

Answers

Answer:

The next generation average time to flowering will be 98 days.

Explanation:

Before answering the question, we need to know a few concepts.

Artificial selection is the selecting practice of a specific group of organisms in a population -that carry the traits of interest- to be the parents of the following generations.  Parental individuals carrying phenotypic values of interest are selected from the whole population. These parents interbreed, and a new generation is produced.  The selection differential, SD, is the difference between the mean value of the trait in the population (X₀) and the mean value of the parents, (Xs). So,  

SD = Xs - X₀

Heritability in the narrow-sense, , is the genetic component measure to which additive genetic variance contributes. The heritability might be used to determine how the population will respond to the selection done, R.  

h² = R/SD

The response to selection (R) refers to the metric value gained or lost from the cross between the selected parents. R can be calculated by multiplying the heritability h², with the selection differential, SD.  

R = h²SD  

R also equals the difference between the new generation phenotypic value (X₁) and the original population phenotypic value (X₀),  

R = X₀ - X₁

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we know these concepts and how to calculate them, we can solve the proposed problem.

Available data:  

trying to decrease the maturation time in a population of sunflowers.the population mean time to flower is 100 days X₀Chosen parental Plants mean flowering time is 90 daysXs the narrow-sense heritability for flowering time is 0.2

According to what we sow previously, we need to find out the value of X₁, which reflects the next generation average time to flowering.

We know that R = X₁ - X₀, so we need to clear this formula to calculate X₁

X₁ = R + X₀

We already know that X₀ = 100 days,  

Now we need to calculate R.  

R = h²SD

We know that h² = 0.2,  

Now we need to calculate SD

SD = Xs - X₀

Xs = 90 days → Parentals media flowering time

X₀ = 100 → Population media flowering time

SD = Xs - X₀  

SD = 90 - 100  

SD = - 10 days

Knowing this, we can calculate R

R = h²SD

o h² = 0.2  

o SD = - 10

R = 0.2 x (-10)

R = - 2

Finally, once we know the R-value we can calculate the X₁ value

X₁ = R + X₀

X₁ = - 2 + 100

X₁ = 98

Eukaryotes are thought to have developed from prokaryotes approximately 2.7 billion years ago. The main difference between these two types of creatures is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells have not.

Therefore, option (C) is correct because prokaryotes are the simplest cellular organism while eukaryotes are complex multicellular.

Nervous system

Explanation:

The nervous system can be divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The autonomic nervous system is a part of the PNS which is concerned with the control of involuntary physiologic processes. During the exercise, the sympathetic nerves of the autonomic nervous system are in charge of preparing the body for physical activity by increasing the respiration rate, heart rate and blood pressure. The sympathetic nerves can also increase energy for the muscles by reducing insulin release and increasing blood glucose.

When a person undergoes gastric bypass surgery, can their hunger, appetite, and
satiety cues change?

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, after an individual undergoes gastric bypass surgery many different metabolic hormones become affected by the surgery. Such hormones include  Gherlin, Leptin, Gastrin, and Insulin, all of which can affect the individual's hunger, appetite, and satiety cues. This is mainly because the surgery greatly shrinks the amount of food that an individual can eat at any given time. Since it basically shrinks the stomach by creating a small pouch where food enters and goes straight into the intestinal track it gives the individual the feeling of being full with much less food.

Insulin is an example of a toxin that can be a useful in the prescribed amount, but deadly if an overdose is taken.

how does Sexual reproduction leads to genetic variation.​

Answers

Answer:

Sexual reproduction provides genetic diversity because the sperm and egg that are produced contain different combinations of genes than the parent organisms. ... Sexual reproduction involves meiosis, which is the process of a cell doubling its DNA, shuffling its genes, and then dividing the shuffled DNA among four cells.

Sexual reproduction leads to genetic variation due to:

• random fusion of gametes
• random assortment of chromosomes
• Gametes of each parent are a result of meiosis meaning gametes are genetically different so when they fuse together they form a new combination of genes in the zygote
