Suppose a population of crabs in a certain tidal ecosystem thrives. These male crabs have one large claw and one small claw, but

variation exists in the size of the large claw. They wave the large claw to attract females to their burrow. Females are attracted to males with larger claws. Which crabs will be more likely to have more offspring in this environment?

Answer: The population having one large claw will have more offspring as compared to the ones having smaller claw.

Explanation:

A population of crabs has two types of crabs in it, one with larger claw and other with smaller claw. They will try to attract the female crab in order to mate.

The males having larger claw are more attractive to the females. Females choose to prefer larger claw over smaller claw because they will have a big burrow which will help her incubate her eggs and they are older (survivor)because the crustaceans grow majority of their life.

So, the crab with large claw is likely to have more offspring than other one.

Generally speaking, which of the following mutations would most severely affect the protein coded for by a gene?a) a base substi
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Answer is C.

Explanation:

For A and B, a base substitution affects one of the three bases that comprise a codon, the DNA/RNA unit that corresponds to a particular amino acid. If one base is substituted, one codon and therefore one amino acid will be affected. Codons have built-in redundancy, so even by changing one base, the new codon sometimes still corresponds to the same amino acid. Therefore, a base substitution at most affects one amino acid, and sometimes doesn't affect it all.

Frameshift mutations cause a lot more trouble. These occur when you have a deletion or insertion that changes the number of bases in your gene. As a result, the "frame" of the codons changes (everything shifts one way or the other by the number of bases added/removed). This affects EVERY codon downstream of the mutation, so you can imagine that such a mutation would have a bigger effect the closer to the start of the gene it occurs. This is why C is correct.
