- You and your best friend observe a group of fish in a system of lakes. You believe it is due to an adaptive radiation, while your friend believes it is not. Which piece of evidence would be decisive in showing that your best friend was correct and that you were wrong? O Findings that fish with larger mouth opening consume larger prey, while those with smaller mouth openings specialize in smaller prey near shorelines. O Data showing a single ancestral fish species colonized the system of lakes. O Data showing that the species arose and speciated slowly. A correlation between mouth phenotypes and the environment the fish use.arrow_forwardDraw a preliminary linkage map of the three loci. What is their order? (E.g. is the forked locus between yellow and cross-veinless, or outside this region?) As this is a preliminary linkage map - do not account for double crossovers. You should base the distances on this map off your map distances calculated: yellow and forked: 39.3 mu yellow and cross-veinless: 11.9 mu cross-veinless and forked: 33.6 muarrow_forwardWhy are people with balanced chromosomal translocations phenotypically normal?
