"Consider the following cross: Gl/gL x gl/gl Which combination(s) of alleles does the parent with the Gl/gL genotype contribute

to the offspring?"

Answer:

Gl, gL, GL and gl

Explanation:

The heterozygous parent has the genotype Gl/gL. Since this is a diploid individual, it has two copies of each autosomal chromosome. The slash "/" represents a separation between the two homologous chromosomes, <em>Gl</em> are the alleles of genes "G" and "L" present in one chromosome, and <em>gL</em> are the alleles of those genes present in the other chromosome.

During meiosis the total chromosome number of the original diploid cell is reduced by half, creating four haploid gametes. In a specific stage of meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair and crossing over occurs, when recombination happens and one of the alleles present in one chromosome "switches" to the other chromosome, increasing genetic variation.

<u>Therefore, the Gl/gL individual can produce four different types of gametes:</u>

Gl and gL (Parental --> no crossing over occurred)

GL and gl (Recombinant --> crossing over occurred)

Soon after the island of Hawaii rose above the sea surface (somewhat less than 1 million years ago), the evolution of life on th
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is- founder effect  

Explanation:

Founder effect occurs when a small number of individual isolates from the majority of the population by natural calamity or any other region. These isolated individuals show less genetic diversity than the larger population because they are less in numbers.  

Therefore founder effect makes a small group of individuals isolate from a bigger population and make them occupy a different habitat. So a founder population can go on a newly developed island and start reproducing there.

A founder population over time converts into a new species because of reproductive isolation from the main population.  So the evolution of life on the island of Hawaii should have been most strongly influenced by founder effect.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Deserts

Explanation:

Based on the data table, we would expect deserts to have the greatest changes in temperatures during a 24-hour period. There is little water or vegetation containing water in desert areas. The data shows the greatest increase and decrease in temperatures to be in the cups of sand.
