What might happen if genetically modified deer mice with white fur where accidentally released into the wild population of mice? Explain what would happen to each population of mice, brown and
gray. Discuss how the addition of this genetic variation will affect the future generations of mice.

Answers

Answer:

They die.

Explanation:

If genetically modified deer mice with white fur were accidentally released into the wild population of mice, they will die and decrease in population because these genetically modified deer mice with white fur can't survive harsh conditions of the mice. Their colour also attract the predators at night so they catch these genetically modified deer mice with white fur and feed on them which automatically decrease its population.

O daltonismo é um distúrbio moderado ligado ao cromossomo X que se caracteriza pela cegueira para as cores verde e vermelha. Considerando-se o cruzamento de uma muher carreadora do alelo para o daltonismo ao se casar com um homem de visão normal, cuais as chances de as filhas desse casal serem carreadoras é de ?

Answers

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Olá. Primeiramente é necessário informar que perguntas em português devem ser postadas no campo "world Languagens". Isso porque esse não é o servidor basileiro e sim o servidor americano. Caso contrario, a sua pergunta pode nunca ser respondida e até mesmo excluida do site.

Em segundo lugar, para que seja possivel que você repsonda a essa pergunta você precisará preencher um Quadrado de Punnett, como mostra a figura abaixo.

Como você sabe, as mulheres possuem os cromossomos XX e os homens XY. Como a mulher apresentada na pergunta acima possui o alelo para o daltonismo, mas não apresenta daltonismo, podemos considerar que apenas um dos cromossomos dela possuem esse alelo. O alelo para o daltonismo é recessivo, sendo assim, podemos considerar que essa mulher possui os alelos XDXd. Homem com quem essa mulher se casa, não possui daltonismo, logo os alelos dele são XDY, como mostrado na figura.

Ao preencher o quadrado de Punnett, você verá que existe a possibilidade desse casal possuir duas filhas, uma delas pode possuir os alelos XDXd, igual a mãe e, portanto, ser carreadora do alelo para o daltonismo.

Sendo existe uma chance, em duas filhas desse casal ter uma filha carreadora de daltonismo. Isso é igual a 1/2, que resulta em 0,5, ou 50% de chances de ter uma filha carreadora de daltonismo.

What would happen if a populations chose their mates randomly?
A. Allele frequency would be constantly changing at random

B. The allele frequency would stay relatively the same over time because there are no traits that are being selected for.

C. Randomly mating allows the most beneficial traits to be passed on because more individuals are going to select for them.

D. Allele frequency would begin to favor the dominant trait.

Answers

Answer:

B. The allele frequency would stay relatively the same over time because there are no traits that are being selected for.

Explanation:

Like recombination, non-random mating can act as an ancillary process for natural selection to cause evolution to occur. Any departure from random mating upsets the equilibrium distribution of genotypes in a population. This will occur whether mate selection is positive or negative assortative.

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente, no anexaste opciones o incisos para responder la pregunta. Sin embargo, podemos comentar lo siguiente.

ESTOS ALIMENTOS DULCES AZUCARADOS NO SÓLO SON MALOS PARA LA SALUD, SINO QUE TAMBIEN PUEDEN SER ENGAÑOSOS. A MENUDO SE DISFRAZAN CON NOMBRES QUE PUEDEN SER SABROSOS.

Es muy importante que seas cuidadoso con los alimentos que consumes como parte de tu alimentación. Muchas empresas, a través de sus marcas, comparten publicidad engañosa para atraer más clientes bajo la promesa de alimentos sabrosos y nutritivos. Y la verdad es que no. Te están engañando.

No hay nada como basar tu dieta diaria en frutas, verduras y un equilibrio entre proteínas, carbohidratos, azúcares naturales y grasas.

Si es necesario, consulta a tu médico o a un nutriólogo para que te expliquen qué tan malo pueden ser los alimentos con muchos químicos.

¿Son sabrosos? Sí, pero también están llenos de sal, grasas, azúcares en excesos que le hacen mucho daño a tu salud.

Investiga un uso beneficioso (medicina o industrial) para las bacterias, virus y Hongos microscópicos. Explica brevemente su utilización.

Answers

Answer:

- Hongos: antibiótico penicilina

- Bacterias: producción de insulina para uso humano

- Virus: vectores basados en adenovirus para el desarrollo de vacunas  

Explanation:

Los microorganismos son fundamentales para el desarrollo de diferentes tipos de aplicaciones industriales y medicinales. Por ejemplo, la penicilina es una sustancia sintetizada por el hongo Penicillium notatum, la cual es ampliamente utilizada como antibiótico debido a sus propiedades antibacterianas. Las penicilinas son antibióticos del grupo de los betalactámicos que tienen como núcleo un anillo central de beta-lactama, las cuales son capaces de destruir una amplia variedad de bacterias​. Por otra parte, las bacterias pueden ser usadas para la generación de moléculas orgánicas con fines médicos. Por ejemplo, cepas de Escherichia coli han sido modificadas mediante técnicas de ingeniería genética con el objetivo de producir insulina humana, una hormona central en el metabolismo de la glucosa. Mediante técnicas de recombinación genética, el gen responsable por sintetizar insulina humana ha sido introducido en bacterias. Las cepas de E. coli son relativamente fáciles de cultivar en el laboratorio y por lo tanto permiten obtener grandes cantidades de esta hormona (insulina). Finalmente, existen ciertas tipos de virus inocuos para nuestro organismo los cuales han sido recientemente utilizados como vectores para el desarrollo vacunas. Mediante esta técnica de ingeniería genética, un determinado vector viral (por ejemplo, un virus de la familia de los adenovirus) es modificado genéticamente con el objetivo de insertar un fragmento de un agente infeccioso o 'antígeno' el cual individualmente es incapaz de producir daño. Las vacunas diseñadas a partir de vectores virales son inofensivas para el organismo pero son capaces de desencadenar una respuesta inmune contra el antígeno recombinante, generando de este modo una memoria inmunitaria en contra el agente infeccioso.

how might a country run out of water​

Answers

Answer

Along with decreasing rainfall comes rising temperatures. By 2050 the U.S. could be as much as 5.7°F warmer, and extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and drought, could be more intense and occur more frequently. As temperatures warm, evaporation increases, further decreasing water in lakes, reservoirs, and rivers.
