Hutchinson-Gilford syndrome, is an extremely rare, progressive genetic disorder that causes children to age rapidly. Under which category does it best fit? Antagonistic pleiotropy Positive selection Selection shadow All of the above None of the above
1. The diagram shows the population curve (y-axis) vs time (x-axis). Which line/curve best describes the theory of natural selection of Charles Darwin? 2. The diagram shows the population curve (y-axis) vs time (x-axis). Which curve represents the scenario described by Thomas Malthus "the populations with unlimited natural resources grow very rapidly, after which population growth decreases as resources become depleted". 3. The diagram shows the population curve (y-axis) vs time (x-axis). Which curve best represents the growth of bacteria? 4. The diagram shows the population curve (y-axis) vs time (x-axis). Which line/curve acts as a moderating force in the growth rate by slowing it when resources become limited and stopping growth once it has been reached.
Genetic drift differs from gene flow in that Group of answer choices genetic drift occurs at a steady, but low, rate in all populations while gene flow is largely random event occurring in small populations. genetic drift is most likely to produce a loss of genetic diversity in a population whereas gene flow will often increase genetic diversity in a population. none of these choices adequately describe the difference between genetic drift and gene flow. genetic drift is based on female choice of particular mates but gene flow is largely a product of natural selection.
In a population that had mice ranging in color from very light to very dark, which type of selection would result in a population of mostly dark mice? Group of answer choices Directional selection Disruptive selection Stabilizing selection
In a population of frogs, individuals with green coloration are camouflaged on leaves and are less likely to be eaten by predators. However, as the number of green frogs increases, predators learn to search for them more effectively, making it advantageous to be a less common color. What type of selection is occurring in this scenario? Disruptive selection 8888 Positive frequency-dependent selection Stabilizing selection Negative frequency-dependent selection Directional selection
Which of the following are factors that can impact genetic variation in a population? (Select all that apply.) Lack of natural selection Random mating Mutation | Migration
In each experiment, what was the variable that differed??
Consider a hypothetical beetle population, in which beetle colour variesalong a spectrum from light to dark green. When introduced to anenvironment characterized by light green moss and dark green shrubs,both light and dark green beetles have higher fitness than medium greenbeetles. Which of the following terms best describes this situation? Select one:O a. Stabilizing selectionO b. Directional selectionO c. Disruptive selectionO d. Sexual selection
Two males are fighting for territory that will increase the probability of mating success. Which term best describes this activity? O Intrasexual selection Intersexual selection Artificial selection O Mutation
You have sequenced the Rag1 gene in two populations of snails that vary in the amount of parasites. The Rag1 gene codes for proteins that affect the immune system. The results were analyzed looking for synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions and are in the table below. Determine if the populations are under selection and comment on which population has the higher infection of parasites. Population 1 Population 2 Synonymous 5 6 Nonsynonymous 4 13
In a population of flowers, there is variation in petal size, with some flowers having very small petals and others having very large petals. Pollinators in the area are attracted to flowers with medium-sized petals, as they provide the most accessible nectar. Which type of selection is most likely occurring in this population of flowers? Group of answer choices Stabilizing Medial Directional Artificial Disruptive
