- What effect does stabilizing selection have on a population? The average population moves toward one extreme. There is more genetic variability. The average population favors both extremes. There is less genetic variability.arrow_forwardThere are two major mechanisms that help populations evolve. The first is Natural Selection. The second is Prezygotic Isolation Genetic Drift Directional Selection Independent Assortmentarrow_forwardHutchinson-Gilford syndrome, is an extremely rare, progressive genetic disorder that causes children to age rapidly. Under which category does it best fit? Antagonistic pleiotropy Positive selection Selection shadow All of the above None of the abovearrow_forward
- One of the dangers faced by a bottlenecked population is: Loss of genetic diversity and increased inbreeding Random changes in allele frequencies Gene flow Too much genetic diversityarrow_forwardBelow is a histogram showing the results from a previous class’s dataset. Some trials resulted (ended) with the white allele fixing (reaching 100%), some resulted with the white allele going extinct (0%), and some fell somewhere in between. What phenomenon most likely drove this pattern? Answer choices are : random mating, genetic drift, mutation, natural selection, or gener flowarrow_forwardIn a Gecko population a group of Geckos skin color is controlled by one gene with two alleles "R"which codes for red and is dominant to "r" which codes for yellow and is recessive. If 100 Geckos are on the island and you gene test them to know their alleles you'll observe that 30 are homozygous red, 60 are heterozygous red, and 20 are homozygous recessive. Determine the Chi-square. assuming the original parents (Rr xRr).* Hint: determine the expected first before plugging into the equation awesome as this one? REGISTER NOW 13 5 11 4 Darrow_forward
- The bottleneck effect and the founder effect are two processes that cause genetic drift to occur. Which was modeled in the second part of this activity? How do you know?arrow_forwardIn a population that had mice ranging in color from very light to very dark, which type of selection would result in a population of mostly dark mice? Group of answer choices Directional selection Disruptive selection Stabilizing selectionarrow_forwardIn a population of frogs, individuals with green coloration are camouflaged on leaves and are less likely to be eaten by predators. However, as the number of green frogs increases, predators learn to search for them more effectively, making it advantageous to be a less common color. What type of selection is occurring in this scenario? Disruptive selection 8888 Positive frequency-dependent selection Stabilizing selection Negative frequency-dependent selection Directional selectionarrow_forward
- Two males are fighting for territory that will increase the probability of mating success. Which term best describes this activity? O Intrasexual selection Intersexual selection Artificial selection O Mutationarrow_forwardA species of fox has a mean number of 3 Kits, while more or less kits is selected against. This is an example of diversifying selection." true or falsearrow_forward
