The pectoral muscles are found on the anterior chest wall (thoracic wall) of a pig. Three pectoral muscles are:
1. Pectoralis major- the most superficial muscle in this region.
2. Pectoralis minor- the muscle that is below the pectoralis major
3. Serratus anterior- the muscle that is adjacent to the chest wall
A frame shift mutation is a genetic mutation caused by insertions or deletions of nucleotide in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by 3.

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
Answer:
Incomplete dominance
Co-dominance
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs heredity, in which one of them is that an allele called DOMINANT allele, is capable of masking the expression of its variant allele called RECESSIVE allele in a heterozygous state. However, there has been genetic scenarios contrary to this his LAW OF DOMINANCE.
One of those Non-mendelian pattern of inheritance is a phenomenon called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, where an allele does not mask the expression of another completely, instead their combined state produces a third intermediate phenotype that is different from both parents. This is the case of the homozygous black bull mated with a homozygous white cow to produce a grey calf. The grey phenotype is an intermediate phenotype of both the black and white colours that forms due to incomplete dominance.
Another genetic scenario is called CO-DOMINANCE, where one allele is neither dominant nor recessive to the other allele, but instead both phenotypes becomes simultaneously expressed in the heterozygous offspring. In this case, the black bull and white cow were mated to form a heterozygous calf with both black and white spots.
