Imagine two new volcanic islands spring up in the middle of the ocean. Each island is quickly founded by a few individuals of a

species of aquatic bird that requires fresh water to thrive. The two islands differ in rainfall, one wetter and one drier. Assuming that rainfall determines carrying capacity for these birds, and that rainfall is consistent over time, what might the growth curves for the bird populations look like over many years for the two islands

Response:

The correct choice is the one located at the top right.

Explanation:

Aquatic birds that rely on fresh water for survival must be near a fresh water source. The wetter island has a greater supply of fresh water compared to the drier one. Consequently, both islands will have their populations grow from zero to an optimal stable figure, which is represented as the graph climbs to its peak before stabilizing. The drier island follows a similar trend but can support a considerably lower population, which is why its growth curve is below that of the wetter island.

Answer:

c. Would not conform to the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio

Explanation:

When two genes are located close together on the same chromosome, the F2 generation's phenotype would not align with the 9:3:3:1 ratio.

Genes that are closely located on the same chromosome are known to be linked, and they exhibit a higher frequency of recombination compared to those that are not linked.

Consequently, while independently assorting genes yield a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio in F2, linked genes do not assort independently, resulting in deviations from the expected standard phenotypic ratio.

The right option is c.

Which statement best describes the difference between a gene and an allele?
enyata [2506]
A gene is a segment of DNA that typically contains the code for a particular protein influencing a specific trait, while an allele is a segment (a version) of that gene. The correct choice among the options is option "D".
