Gene pool - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

During an individual organism's lifetime, which of these is most likely to help the organism respond properly to changes in its environment? A) microevolution B) change in allele or gene frequency C) change in gene expression D) change in average heterozygosity - ANSWER C) change in gene expression If, on average, 46% of the loci in a species' gene pool are heterozygous, then the average homozygosity of the species should be A) 23%. B) 46%. C) 54%. D) There is not enough inf...

Natural Selection the process that results in adaptation of a population to the biotic and abiotic environments. Polygenic controlled by more than one pair of alleles located at different gene loci Directional Selection occurs when an extreme phenotype is favored and the distribution curve shifts in that direction. Example: resistance to antibiotics and pesticides Stabilizing Selection Occurs when an intermediate phenotype is favored. Individuals near the average are fav...

what are two factors that contribute to phenotype? - Answer-genotype and environment species - Answer-individuals that are able to exchange genetic material gene pool - Answer-all alleles present in individuals of that species populations - Answer-interbreeding groups of organisms of the same species living in the same geographical area what are two main sources that lead to genetic variation? - Answer-mutation and recombination what can somatic mutations lead to? - Answer-cancer, disease ...
