Geographical Isolation is the mechanism that might have led to the appearance of the Hawaiian honeycreeper.
Geographical Isolation is the term used that refers to a population of animals, plants, or other organisms that are separated and unable to exchange genetic materials with other organism of the same species.
Geographical Isolation may be a result of coincidence or accident.
Here are some factors of Geographical Isolation:
1) Isolation by barriers
2) Isolation by distance
3) Isolation after an Event
4) Isolation by separation
A should be labeled as being Bryophytes. I hope this helps anyone who needs to know this.
Answer:
The homozygous dominant phenotype is higher than expected, indicating that evolution has occurred.
Explanation:
At the start there are 200 fishes in the pond, 100 of them are AA(50%) and 100 of them are aa(50%). Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation we can say that the gene frequency is
A=0.5
a=0.5
With those frequency, the expected percentage of offspring with dominant genotype will be:
AA= 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25 = 25%
The number of homozygous dominant found is 35% which is higher than expected (25%). Higher homozygous dominant frequency than expected means the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is changed. In this case, evolution probably the cause that shifts the gene frequency.
Answer:
The correct answer is "Statistical Hypothesis".
Explanation:
Given the example, the breeder wants to find the relationship between the two variables which are the effects of bredding and the face length of the boxer breed. He/She is using the statistics of the face length from the years 1915 and 2015 so the type of hypothesis that should be used is "Statistical Hypothesis" which is used when the hypothesis can be verified statistically. I hope this answer helps.
