What ecological events led to the speciation of the florida panther? genetic drift is the random loss of alleles due to chance.

for example when a tsunami hits an island and someone dies, it is by chance. what events contribute to genetic drift in the florida panther? does genetic drift increase or decrease the amount of variation in a population?

Due to habitat loss and overhunting, the population of Florida panther has dangerously decreased. This had a grave impact on the genetic pool of this species because it has significantly decreased the genetic variation in this population. This is a textbook example of genetic drift. A small number of individuals have survived by chance and their genetic profiles represent only a fragment of the initial genetic variability.

The key to the evolution of altruism is that a. recipients have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than nonrecipie
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. actors have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than non actors.

Explanation:

Altruism is the behavior by an organism that benefits other organisms by costing its own fitness. The actor is the individual who is doing altruism and the recipient is the individual who is getting benefited by the actor's altruism.

An example of altruistic behavior can be seen in animal kingdom easily. Vampire bats give blood to those members of the community who were not able to go for search for blood show altruistic behavior.

Actors have altruistic genes that suggest them to behave altruistically. Non-actors may not contain alleles of altruism but the recipient might have altruistic alleles.

Hamilton's rule says that natural selection will favor the altruistic allele when rb > c.

where r = coefficient of relatedness between donor and recipient

          b = benefit received by recipient and

          c = cost paid by altruist.

Therefore, the correct answer is b.
