<h2>The Forearm</h2>
Explanation:
The proximal end of the radius illustrates the relationship of form and function. The cup-like surface of the radial head articulates with the rounded shape of the capitulum. This forms a joint that allows for movement of elbows and forearms.
Radius and ulna are the two bones of the forearm. Their proximal ends articulate and fit into the cup like end of the humerus. This forms a synovial joint called the elbow joint. The movement of this joint allows the forearms to supinate and pronate.
The answer is stabilizing selection.
<span>Sickle-cell anemia is a recessive disorder caused by the presence of two recessive alleles "s", so genotype is "ss". This disorder is characterized by sickle hemoglobin. In an area with malaria, heterozygous individuals "Ss" (with one dominant allele and one recessive allele) have an advantage. These individuals will have both normal and sickle hemoglobin. But pathogen that causes malaria affect only normal hemoglobin, so heterozygous individuals will have half of the hemoglobin resistant to the pathogen and those individuals are resistant to malaria.</span>
Stabilizing selection favors heterozygotes Ss, disruptive selection favors dominant (SS) and recessive (ss) homozygotes, while directional selection favors dominant (SS) or recessive (ss) homozygote. Since in this example, people with genotype Ss (heterozygotes) are in advantage, then this is an example of stabilizing selection.
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.
1. scientist's can identify genetic disorders or diseases from studying DNA
2. scientists can possibly find cures for these causes by manipulating or experimenting with this DNA
Natural selection would probably favor different varieties in the different islands. In other words, beaks changed as the birds developed different tastes for fruits, seeds, or insects picked from the ground or cacti (due to lack of food resources). Long, pointed beaks made some of them more fit for picking seeds out of cactus fruits.
