A haploid species has a gene on chromosome 2 which codes for lactase. In nature, four different alleles of the lactase gene have

Answer:

Haploid organisms have only one allele per <em>locus</em>

Explanation:

In haploid species, the number of alleles for a single <em>locus</em> always will be only one. Haploid species contain one complete set of chromosomes in their somatic cells. In nature, species are generally diploids but there are exceptions to this norm (e.g., male bees, ants and wasps are derived from an unfertilized egg). Consequently, in haploid organisms, the allelic and genotypic frequencies are the same. In this case, it is also important to note that the three remaining alleles will be distributed among the other haploid individuals in the population.

Mason drew the cladogram shown. Which statements best describes the cladogram? Select three options. (HURRY I WILL MARK BRAINLIE
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Correct options B, D and E.

Explanation:

In the cladogram, we can see that in the first branch we have a division, one branch goes to fish and the other goes to a division (a division means a common ancestor)

Then the fish are the most primitive (being directly related to the first ancestor)., E is true.

We also can see that between fish and birds we have 3 separations (the ancestor in common is 3 "generations" behind), and between frog and birds we have two separations (the common ancestor is 2 "generations" behind), so frogs are more closely related to birds than fish.

So D is also true.

We also can see that the only pair that has only one ancestor in common are birds and reptiles, so the ones that are most closely related are birds and reptiles. B is also true,

Komok [63]
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

Coach Damien notices that some of his football players drink more water than others before Friday night games. He is interested
max2010maxim [7]

The independent variable is the amount of water consumed by the football players.

The dependent variable is the football players' endurance, measured by how many times they can run up and down the bleachers before catching their breaths.

The coach's hypothesis was that the more water consumed, the more endurance the players will have.

There is not a control group present in this experiment, but it would be the set of players who did not drink a bottle of water before practice.

The experimental group is the set of players who did drink a bottle of water before practice.

The constants in the experiment are the operational definitions of endurance (how he measures their endurance), the amount of water each player drinks throughout the week, and the players used in the experiment.

The lack of a set control group poses a threat to the accuracy of the experiment's results.
