Q15 Consider a population of cells where some cells are cooperative and some cellsdefect (are selfish). Fitness payoffs from interactions between any two cells are givenby table below. Answer the two questions below.FitnessCooperate Defect(C)Cooperate 9(D)4(C)Defect(D)1151) In a population where any two cells only interact once, is cooperation likely toevolve? Why or why not?2) How will the likelihood that cooperation will evolve change if cells come togetherto form two types of groups: groups of all defectors (DDD) and groups of allcooperators (CCC), and why? In your answer, be sure to calculate and compare thefitness of cooperators and defectors in these groups.

The pesticide DDT was widely used in the 1940s as a method of insect control.

I expect for genetically identical animals that have been reared in similar conditions to have a smaller SD for any parameter that I decide to measure compared to genetically diverse animals that have been grown in a variety of natural environments.
I need help identifying which assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is most affected, then indicating whether what is being described will act to establish or violate equilibrium, and lastly, whether the statement will increase or decrease that population’s genetic variation. Corals synchronize spawning to occur on a single night during a particular tidal event, such as a spring tide. On that night individuals release sperm and eggs into the water, which then form zygotes. Larvae are carried off by currents and settle elsewhere. What assumption is this breeding style affecting and what will it do to VG of that coral species?

What is the evolutionary stable strategy (ESS) for the payoff matrix below? Cat challenger versus cat opponent = 7 Cat challenger versus dog opponent = 15 Dog challenger versus cat opponent = 10 Dog challenger versus dog opponent = 3
Very few species on Earth are completely r-selected or K-selected. Many species in their natural habitats demonstrate a life strategy that ranges along a continuum between r- and K-selected strategies. Use this information to answer the 3 sub-parts. a) Sea otters are marine mammals that live in northern Pacific coasts. Typical female sea otters reach sexual maturity around 3 or 4 years of age, and they reproduce once a year, producing a single pup.Only female sea otters are tasked with raising the offspring. Mothers constantly take care of their pups until they are 8 months old, but only 25% of the pups survive past the first year. Sea otter fur was highly sought after between the 18th century and the early 20th century. Through conservation efforts, the number of sea otters increased. The current world population is estimated to be between 1 000 and 2 000 individuals, and they are considered to be endangered. Their main food source is sea urchins, molluscs, and crustaceans. Sea…
Colony collapse disorder (CCD) is unexplained loss of entire bee colonies that has been occurring in increased numbers across the world. The cause of the disorder is unknown, although it has been suggested that pesticides may play a role. To study this phenomenon, 300 bee colonies at 20 different sites across the U.S. are analyzed. Colonies are classified as having no CCD symptoms (group 1) or as having CCD symptoms (group 2). Bee pollen is isolated from group 1 and group 2 colonies and analyzed for the presence of pesticides. Significantly higher average pesticide levels being found in group 2 colonies, the conclusion of the study states that increasing pesticides use may be leading to the death of bees and a loss of bee colonies in CCD. Does this study have a control group? If so, what is the control group? If not, why not?
Honey bee workers from a colony in North Carolina are visiting two food sites, A and B, at 6 am as shown below. Site A is 1500 m from the hive; site B is 300 m from the hive. While most of the foragers are out in the field, a sudden downpour strikes which drowns many of the bees outside the hive. As a result, there is a shortage of foragers in the nest at a time when much food is available in the field. Which of the following can you correctly predict will happen: a. The loss of foragers will cause increased activity of the Gp9 gene in some of the bees inside the nest, which will decrease their JH levels, causing them to revert to nursing behavior and raise more brood to quickly replace the lost foragers. b. The loss of foragers will result in decreased transfer of ethyl oleate to the younger bees, which will cause JH titers in some of the younger bees to increase and they will become precocious foragers. c. The loss of contact with older bees will cause increased Amfor and…

Suppose that a certain population of salamanders shows (by electrophoretic analysis) genetic variation for a certain enzyme, and that the enzyme appears to be coded by a single gene with two alleles (Ef, Es). Also suppose that the frequency of the two alleles in the population are estimated as p = frequency of Ef = 0.60, q = frequency of Es = 0. 40. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (i.e., all the assumptions of the Hardy-Weinberg model are met), estimate the expected frequency of all possible genotypes in the population.
