a chemical element or substance required in trace amounts for the normal growth and development of living organisms.
There are basically three types of evolution divergent, convergent and parallel evolution.
a) Divergent Evolution – As the name depicts the species in this form of evolution becomes divergent i.e they evolve to become different from each other. This form of evolution is responsible for the current diversity of organisms existing on planet earth. For example human and apes evolved from a common primate ancestor.
Answer:
No, mutations do not all result in negative effects. Sometimes they can be beneficial, as they are completely random. It is our general tendency to think of the word "mutation" in negative terms; however, do not get confused. Mutations are the root/ultimate source of genetic variation; they are one of the main factors that allow populations to evolve.
Answer:
wind whips it up and gravity pulls it down.
Explanation:
Answer:
The most appropriate answer would be option 2.
In humans, the color of the eyes was thought as a simple Mendelian trait however, it has been found that the color of the eye follows polygenic inheritance, that is, it is determined by multiple genes.
A set of 15 genes is responsible for the color of the eyes. Two genes out of these 15 are OCA2 and HERC2 which are present on chromosome 15.
Thus we can conclude that eye colour is polygenic trait which does not follow Mendelian genetics.
