Alleles are also like genes which contain a trait from the parent cells that could be likely passed on to the offspring cells. For example, the trait of having blue eyes of the father and brown eyes of the mother are two alleles. There are probability for these alleles to pass on. 'p' designated the success of one allele to pass on, while 'q' designates a failure. When these two are added up, the sum would be 1. Therefore:

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.44
q = 0.56

Which term best describes the difference in colors of the birds below?
NeX [460]

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is C) genetic variation</em></u>

Explanation:

Genetic variation can be described as the differences present in the genetic material i.e DNA of organisms present in a population. Genetic diversity allows organisms of a species to better adapt to an environment. A population in which the genetic variability is scarce might become wiped out by a disease or an invading predator.

As the birds show different variations hence the term that best described them is genetic variation.

The basic components (depedent and indepedent variables) are the plants and altitude while the confounding variable is the 20 story building. Confounding variables affect the experiement variable and are mainly outside of the researcher’s control in the experiment.  Ray cannot change the building but this variable can affect the depedent and indepedent variables and cause distorted or spurious results.
