A population of lizards carry a gene for scale color in which the dominant allele produces green scales while the recessive allele codes for brown scales. In the first generation, you determine that 75% of the population is green and 25% of the population is brown. In the second generation, you determine that 50% of the population is green and 50% of the population is brown. Finally, in the third generation, you determine that 25% of the population is green and 75% of the population is brown. Which of the following correctly explains this change in the genotype frequencies?(1 point)

The lizards mate randomly with each other.

The brown color is an adaptation that is being selected by the environment.

The lizards remain isolated from other lizards, only mating with lizards in their own population.

The DNA of these lizards carries no mutations from one generation to the next.

Answers

Answer:

1) There are no mutations in the DNA of the population.

2) The brown color is an adaptation that is being selected by the environment.

3) The number of individuals displaying each phenotype in both the current generation and the offspring.

4)The recessive phenotype in this population may serve as an adaptation in this environment.

5) A population of flies that maintains a population size of at least 1 million individuals.

Answers

Answer:

A.....

Explanation:

,.............

If a forest has many large trees with lots of leaves, the likely thing that could be found on the ground is very few small plants, because the trees block all the sunlight. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

Why do plants that live on the forest floor have big leaves?

The forest floor gets almost no light at all. Leaves in these environments have adapted to low light and lots of water. Large leaves are arranged horizontally to absorb the most light possible. This is because these plants have plenty of access to water, and they can keep large leaves alive.

The plants that live on the floor of the forest have bigger leaves so that they can absorb the little light that comes through rather the plants that live in hot sunny conditions don't need to store as much sunlight. Cacti are plants that live in extremely dry environments.

Therefore, if a forest has many large trees with lots of leaves, very few small plants would be found on the ground because all the trees block the sunlight. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

Within a population of rabbits, black fur (B) is dominant over white fur (b). A scientist observes 16% white rabbits on an island. The dominant allele frequency of this population is

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

According to hardyweinberg principle

p+q= 1

P2+2pq+q2=1

given that

Black fur =B =p(dominant allele)

White fur =b =q (recessive allele)

q2=16%

16/100=0.16

q=√0.16

q=0.4

Since p+q=1

P=1-q

P=1-0.4

P=0.6

Therefore the allele frequency for dominant organism Black fur is 0.6

Cells typically respond to DNA damage in three ways: by ceasing to grow and divide until the damage is repaired, by permanently ceasing to grow and divide, or by dying. In 2010 a group of scientists reported that a certain kind of immune reaction can cause DNA damage that leads to a fourth response. DNA damage can turn off genes involved in cell-signaling pathways. Turning off these genes can cause less-mature cells to divide too rapidly, often leading to the development of- a. tumors c. hemophilia b. allergies d. cardiovascular disease

Answers

It can lead to the development of A. Tumors

Turning off these genes can cause less-mature cells to divide too rapidly, often leading to the development of (A) tumors.

What is the most common cause of tumor?

When cells reach their end of life cycle or get damaged, they pass away and are replaced by new ones. This normally well-regulated process can, on occasion, become disorganized, allowing aberrant or damaged cells to proliferate and reproduce when they should not. These cells have the potential to develop tumors, which are mass accumulations of tissue.

There are primarily three different kinds of tumors:

Benign: These tumors do not have any cancer-causing properties. They do not penetrate the tissue that is close by and they do not spread to other areas of the body.Tumors that are premalignant have cells that are not currently cancerous but have the capability of developing into cancerous cells in the future.Malignant: Malignant tumors are malignant.

(iii) Blood Circulation (c) potato

(iv) Pancreas (d) chlorosis

(v) Autotrophs (e) Pavlov's Experiment

Answer:

Stem tuber ---- Potato

Conditioned reflex ---- Pavlov's experiment

Blood circulation ---- William harvey

Pancreas ---- Insulin

Autotrophs ------ Blue green algae

Active transport ---- Minerals

Note: Chlorosis has no matching item in the list. Explanation is given below.

Explanation:

Stem tubers are plants which store their food in their stems. Potatoes are stem tubers.

Conditioned reflex is a reflex is acquired gradually by training in association with specific repeated external stimuli. For example, the Russian psychologist Ivan Pavlov's  performed experiments on conditioned reflex using a dog. He demonstrated that a dog will salivate on the sound of a bell even if there is no food given to it if the ringing of the bell preceded every feeding session of the dog.

William Harvey discovered the circulation of blood and the function of the heart .

The islets of Langerhans found in the Pancreas secretes the hormone, insulin.

Autotrophs are organisms which are able to manufacture their own food, Blue green algae are examples of autotrophs.

Active transport is transport which requires expenditure of energy and occurs against the concentration gradient of the substance being transported. Because the concentration of minerals in the soil are in very low concentration, active transport is used by the root hair cells carrier proteins to move mineral ions across the membrane into the cell against the concentration gradient. ATP hydrolysis provides the energy for this process.

Chlorosis is a disease which appears as the yellowing of leaves in plants and in human a green tinging of the skin which is caused by the deficiency of minerals especially iron and manganese.

What is photosynthesis, and what is it's main goal?

Answers

Answer: Photosynthesis is the process of when a plant makes it's own food, and the main goal is to convert solar energy to chemical energy.

Explanation: Plants use photosynthesis by taking the sunlight, to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Since plants can't move and consume other organisms, they use photosynthesis. The formula is: [tex]6CO_2+6H_2O=C_6H_1_2O_6+6O_2[/tex].

Like I said, the main goal is converting solar energy to chemical energy then store the chemical energy for future use, for example it can be used for Chemical batteries, Natural gas, Heat, Food, etc.
