Answer:
In synapsis, the genes on the chromatids of the homologous chromosomes are precisely aligned with each other. An exchange of chromosome segments
Explanation:
The following phenotypic classes reflect offspring that were generated as a result of a crossover event
- miniature wings
- garnet eyes
Explanation:
When the miniature wings and garnet eyes links up with the 8 map unit that are present between them. After that the presence of two recombinant classes must complement together and make 8% of total i.e. they contribute 4% each. together the parental classes make up to 92% by contributing 46% one.
This can be understood through a phenotypic ratio calculation, which can be expected from it.
wild type: 4% x 800 = 32
miniature wings: 46% x 800 = 368
garnet eyes: 46% x 800 = 368
miniature wings, garnet eyes: 4% x 800 = 368
Answer:
C. Disruptive Selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.
The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.
The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.
Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
Um..... because it could have high levels of mercury, an mercury consumed during pregnancy has been linked to developmental delays and brain damage
