Answer: Genetic drift may result in the loss of some alleles (including beneficial ones) and the fixation, or rise to 100% frequency, of other alleles.Once it begins, genetic drift will continue until the involved allele is either lost by a population or is the only allele present at a particular gene locus within a population. ... Genetic drift can result in the loss of rare alleles, and can decrease the size of the gene pool.
Explanation:
Answer:
decrease the genetic diversity of a population.
Explanation:
Genetic drift describes random fluctuations in the numbers of gene variants in a population. Genetic drift takes place when the occurrence of variant forms of a gene, called alleles, increases and decreases by chance over time.
Genetic drift can cause a new population to be genetically distinct from its original population, which has led to the hypothesis that genetic drift plays a role in the evolution of new species.
What changes occur in taste receptors when the membrane is depolarized during receptor potential A. Voltage-gated Ca2 channels open, triggering the release of neurotransmitter. B. Voltage-gated Cl- channels open, triggering the release of neurotransmitter. C. Voltage-gated Ca2 channels open, inhibiting the release of neurotransmitter. D. Voltage-gated Cl- channels open, inhibiting the release of neurotransmitter.
Answer:
A. Voltage-gated Ca² channels open, triggering the release of neurotransmitters.
Explanation:
For taste mechanisms to function properly, it is necessary the activation of taste receptors.
Through the activation of taste receptors, transduction cascades occur, involving ion channels that are located in the apical or lateral membranes. There occurs a subsequent release of chemical neurotransmitters that send signals to the control centers.
Salty and sweet flavors produce the membrane depolarization that results in Ca+ ions´ entrance to the cell. Ca+ initiates the release of neurotransmitters. Afferent gustative neurons receive the message and send it to the control center, the encephalon. After that, gustative cells go back to the initial state, repolarizing.
Graded for correctness: In humans, the ability to digest lactose beyond childhood is determined by a single gene on chromosome 1. L denotes the allele that gives the ability to digest lactose and l denotes the inability to digest lactose. On chromosome 3 is the gene for widows peak. A denotes the allele for no widows peak and a denotes a widows peak. A woman volunteers to be a participant in a genetic research study. Her genotype is LlAa. A doctor harvests a single egg from her body. The genotype of her egg is LA. How did her chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate during meiosis
Answer:
Metaphase I:
Homologous chromosomes are placed in the equatorial planeChromosomes carrying the dominant alleles, L and A, face one of the polesThe homologous chromosomes, carrying the recessive alleles, l and a, face the opposite pole.Metaphase II:
Chromosomes carrying the dominant alleles, L and A, are placed in the equatorial planeOne of the chromatid sisters of each chromosome faces one of the polesThe other chromatid sisters of each chromosome face the opposite pole.You will find the image in the attached files.
Explanation:
During metaphase I, homologous pairs migrate to the equatorial plane. They randomly aline with their kinetochores facing opposite poles. The random arrangement of tetrads is different in every cell going through the meiosis process. There is no equal alinement between two cells. When tetrads aline in the equatorial plane, there is no predetermined order for each of the homologous chromosomes of each tetrad to face one of the poles and then migrate to it while separating. Each of the chromosomes has two possibilities for orientation at the plane. When the new haploid cells are formed, the number of variations in each cell is also different and depends on the chromosomes that form that cell. This random order in the equatorial plane is what introduces variation into the gametes. It is almost impossible that two gametes resulting from meiosis will get the same genetic charge.
During metaphase II, fibers of the spindle apparatus take chromosomes toward the equatorial cell plane, where they line up. Sister chromatids are holden together until they reach the Anaphase, during which specialized enzymes break the bonds between chromatids and separate them. Each chromatid migrates to one of the poles. In telophase, the new chromosomes are already in the corresponding poles, and the nuclear membrane forms again. Finally, cytokinesis occurs.
In this example, we will assume no crossing-over in the prophase. I will propose the two metaphase stages.
Metaphase I: Pole 1
Chromosome 1 ---------L---- -----------A--------- Chromosome 3
----------L---- -----------A---------
Equatorial plane.....................................................................................................
Chromosome 1 ---------l---- -----------a--------- Chromosome 3
---------l---- -----------a---------
Pole 2
In this scheme of Metaphase I, homologous chromosomes are already aligned in the equatorial plane. Each homologous chromosome is facing a pole. So, in the superior part of the scheme, we have chromosomes 1 and 2 carrying the dominant alleles L and A. Both chromosomes are facing pole 1. Then, we can recognize the equatorial plane, and on the other side, we find the homologous chromosomes 1 and 2, facing pole 2, and carrying the recessive alleles, l and a.
During anaphase I, homologous chromosomes will separate and migrate to different poles. In this example, we are interested in chromosomes carrying the dominant alleles that migrate to pole 1. LL and AA.
Metaphase II: Pole 1
Chromatid 1 ---------L---- -----------A-------- Chromatid 3
Equatorial plane.....................................................................................................
Chromatid 1 ----------L---- -----------A--------- Chromatid 3
Pole 2
During metaphase II, each chromatid sister carrying the dominant alleles faces a different pole. During anaphase II they separate and migrate again.
The total result of meiosis in this particular cell is the formation of 4 haploid cells -gametes-: LA, LA, la, la

The countries which do not have oil reservoirs in their land, import oil from other countries. But sometimes during transportation of oil through sea routes, accidental oil spill occurs. This oil spilled in the ocean may prove fatal and toxic to aquatic animals. Therefore, removal of this spilled oil is essential for protection of aquatic life. For removing this oil layer, certain microbes like Pseudomonas spp and Alcanivorax borkumensis are used. These microbes have the ability to destroy the pyridines and other toxic chemicals. The hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria (HCB) are able to decompose the hydrocarbons and bring about the reaction of carbons with oxygen resulting in formation of CO2 and water. Like oil spills cause damage
to aquatic life, plastic forms the major part of the garbage on the land. Plastics are difficult to degrade as they are made up of PET, by research various species like Vibrio and Ideonella sakaiensis which can degrade PET have been identified. There are certain species of microbes which can decompose rubber from garbage.

Match each idea about evolution to the person or group where it originated from the drop down menu
Hello. You did not present the ideas about evolution to which the question refers, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way, showing you the main ideas about evolution and the people who originated them.
According to Jean-Baptiste organisms evolve as a way of seeking perfection.
According to the ancient Greeks and Romans, all living things are in a constant process of change. This change causes evolution and when a living being evolves it causes the evolution of another living being, since everyone is connected and related.
According to Darwin, evolution occurs over time and through an ancestor. For him All living beings have a common ancestor, which evolved over time and generated new species. Darvin also believes that any characteristic acquired by evolution could be passed on to the descendants.
According to Malthus, living beings generate a number of descendants disproportionate to the resources necessary for their survival and this causes evolution.

What are two different ways that
weathering can happen?
Chemically & Physically(mechanically)
erosion & physically (mechanically)
chemically & deposition
Answer:
Chemically & Physically(mechanically)
Explanation:
Weathering is the wearing away of rock found at the surface of the earth. There are different ways weathering can occur and they include;
1. Mechanical weathering: This is the breakdown of rock into bits or fragments. Physical factors such as water can lead to this breakdown. When water falls into the pores and cracks of rocks, pressure can be created that will eventually result in the breakdown of these rocks.
2. Chemical weathering: This type of weathering causes a change in the physical makeup of the rock. The new form of rock created is more prone to erosion. Temperature is factor that can speed up chemical weathering.

Geranium leaves grow in positions that permit the optimum use of light as a result of
Answer:
do you work stop cheat broo this evan btw
Explanation:
Geranium leaves are typically arranged in a way that allows for optimal use of light through a process called "heliotropism" or "solar tracking."
What is heliotropism?Heliotropism is the ability of plants to orient themselves towards the direction of the sun to optimize their exposure to light.
Geranium leaves are arranged in a rosette pattern, with each leaf emerging from the base of the stem and spreading outwards. The leaves are arranged in a way that maximizes their surface area while minimizing shading of other leaves. This arrangement allows the leaves to capture the maximum amount of sunlight possible.
Additionally, geranium leaves have a waxy cuticle that helps to prevent excessive water loss and damage from UV radiation. The leaves also have chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll and are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants use sunlight to produce energy.

Name and give examples of 2 major types of mutations. What do they have in common? How are they different?
Answer:
The correct answer would be - Two major types of mutations are deletions and substitutions.
Explanation:
The two major types of mutations are deletion and substitution, other than these there are many more mutations that are categorized under gene mutations and chromosomal mutation.
The deletion mutation takes place in the conditions where the DNA deletes or missed copying the nucleotide in a new DNA molecule. This type of mutation can occur in one or more nucleotides. Whereas Substitution mutation occurs when there is a wrong nucleotide added to the DNA sequence or substitute with other.
Both could be deleterious and takes place at the nucleotide level. Both mutation depends on the number of nucleotide or the location of the mutation on the gene.
