(a)

Summary Introduction

To draw: A graph depicting the phenomenon of no selection with a range of phenotype (e.g. height) on the x-axis and number of the individual on the y-axis.

Introduction: The phenomenon of natural selection is based on the evolutionary changes that occur within the population.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To draw: A graph depicting the phenomenon of “stabilizing selection” with a range of phenotype (e.g. height) on the x-axis and number of the individual on the y-axis.

Introduction: The phenomenon of natural selection is based on the evolutionary changes that occur within the population. The mechanism of natural selection can be classified into three kinds: stabilizing selection, directional selection, and disruptive selection.

The Sentinel Cell: Nature’s Answer to Cancer?
Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
