A scientist was studying a population of elephants. The first year, he counted a population of 80. Over the next eight years, the population's numbers were 94, 100, 103, 110, 125, 120, 125, 120. What appears to be the carrying capacity for this population? 120 124 125 126

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

125

Explanation:

The correct option would be 125.

The carrying capacity of a particular environment generally refers to the maximum number of individuals of a particular species that the environment can support at a particular time based on the resources it has. Hence, the maximum population of a species will normally oscillate around the carrying capacity of the environment where it is found.

In the case of the elephants in the illustration, the maximum population recorded was 125. The population decreased from this value at some point only to increased back to it later.

Hence, the carrying capacity for the elephant is 125.

125

Assume that you are a genetic counselor and that a couple seeks genetic counseling from you. Both the man and the woman are phenotypically normal, but the woman is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion on chromosome 8. The man is karyotypically normal. What is the probability that this couple will produce a child with a genetic syndrome as the result of crossing over within the pericentric inversion

Answers

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

An inversion is a genetic phenomenon that occurs when a chromosome breaks into two genomic sites, thereby the resulting DNA fragment is reversed and subsequently inserted into the same chromosome location. A pericentric inversion occurs when the chromosome breaks are located on opposite arms or sides of the chromosomal centromere. Moreover, crossing over (or recombination) is the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids during gamete production. An inversion carrier, as in this case the woman who is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion, can produce four types of gametes. If there is no crossing over, half the chromatids will produce normal gametes (without the recombination event) and half the chromatids will produce balanced gametes that will transmit the pericentric inverted chromosome. On the other hand, if there is crossing over, half the chromatids will have one duplication on the first chromosome arm together with a deletion on the second chromosome arm, and the remaining half of the chromatids will have an inverse arrangement.

A man is brachydactylous (very short fingers; rare autosomal dominant), and his wife is not. Both can taste the chemical phenylthiocarbamide (autosomal dominant; common allele), but their mothers could not. Give the genotypes of the couple. If the genes assort independently and the couple has four children, what is the probability of all of them being brachydactylous

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

A) BbTt x bbTt

B) .5^4 or 1/16 or 0.0625

Explanation:

As it is given that Brachydactylus and PTC tasters both traits are autosomal dominant conditions which mean only one allele would be enough.

For Branchydactylus and For tasting :  man and women will be heterogeneous.

Hence,

The Genotype of man = BbTt

The Genotype of wife = bbTt

b. Answer = 0.0625

For Branchydactylus:

Bb X bb

Possible genotypes:

B b

b Bb( Brachydactylus) bb(normal)

b Bb (Brachydactylus) bb (normal)

The probability of a single child being Branchydactylus = 2/4 = 0.5

So,  Probability of all 4 child being Branchydactylus = .5 x .5 x .5 x .5 = 0.0625

As more is learned about cancer, it has become clear that cancer, with few exceptions, ________. Group of answer choices is only dependent on the inherited genetics is a result of genetics and environmental factors is 100% dependent on inherited genetics has no genetic basis

Answers

Answer: Is a result of genetics and environmental factors.

Explanation:

Cancer is the common name for a group of diseases in which there is a division of the body's cells, whose growth exceeds that of normal tissues and which persists in the same excessive manner. It can begin in a localized manner and spread to other surrounding tissues and its malignancy is very variable, according to the aggressiveness of its cells and other biological characteristics of each type of tumor. In general, the behavior of cancer cells is characterized by lacking the reproductive control required by their original function, acquiring the capacity to invade tissues (metastasis), spreading through the organism via the lymphatic or circulatory system, and causing the growth of new tumors in other parts of the body.

A gene is a hereditary unit composed of DNA that carries the instructions for producing proteins, which do much of the work in our cells. Certain genetic alterations can cause cells to evade growth controls and become cancerous cells. These changes can be inherited from our parents if the changes are present in the germ cells (eggs and sperm) and they are called germline changes. In addition, cancer-causing genetic changes can also be acquired during a person's lifetime (somatic or acquired changes), as a result of DNA errors that occur when cells divide either spontaneously or by exposure to carcinogenic substances that damage DNA (environmental factors), such as certain chemicals in tobacco smoke, or radiation, such as ultraviolet rays from the sun. These substances damage DNA, acting as mutagens.

Sometimes, the changes are not in the DNA sequence. For example, the epigenetic modifications are the presence of chemical marks in DNA which can determine if the gene is expressed. This means, whether and how much messenger RNA is produced, because the messenger RNA is translated into proteins.

So, cancer cells have genetic changes compared to normal cells. These changes are due to mutations that can be inherited, acquired spontaneously during life, or acquired due to environmental factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and other factors. In addition, the fact that a person has the cancer-related mutation does not necessarily mean that he or she will develop the disease during his or her lifetime. In some cases, even if they have this genetic vulnerability, they remain healthy, because cancer is a multifactorial disease that depends on many factors, such as the immune system, nutrition and certainly many others currently unknown to medicine.

Explanation:

The rate of temperature increases below the Earth's surface is greatest between depths of tectonic plate boundaries and the outer core.  At the depth, some of the heat comes from the Earth's core while most of the heat comes from decay of radioactive elements, mainly uranium, thorium and potassium that is located in rocks of the crust. So we can say that the the increase in temperature with depth varies with the chemical composition and age of the rocks.
