<span>The correct answer is expansions. What happens is that rain falls down and the water fills the cracks of rocks. When it freezes, it expands and this breaks the rock. When it melts, the hole is bigger and the next time rain falls, there's more of it, and it freezes again, and so on and so forth until the rock breaks down completely. This is how caves in the ground and cliffs are made.</span>

Which would most likely lead to a change in the genetic structure of a population?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The answer is C.

A 5 percent increase in the reproductive success of some genotypes, but a 5 percent decrease in the reproductive success of other genotypes

Explanation:

Incomplete question, here is the full question: https://quizlet.com/153540854/biology-107-part1-flash-cards/

For the genetic structure of a population to change, we can either depend on natural selection or mutations but there has to be an imbalance.

The answers given in the options A and B are referring to changes in genotypes which surely affects the genetic structure of the population but the way these options are given is in equilibrium, meaning they create and imbalance but then counter that with something else.

In option C, some genotypes get a 5 percent increase while some get a 5 percent decrease in their reproductive success, which will most likely result in a change in the genetic structure of a population.

I hope this answer helps.

zmey [24]
Answer: 4%

Out of 5000kcal, the owl loses 2300kcal which mean it could only process 2700kcal. Out of 2700kcal processed, 2500 kcal is used for cellular respiration so there is 200 kcal used to make body cells. The production efficiency would be: 200kcal/5000kcal= 4%

Suppose that a late succession plant that is surrounded by early succession plants grows at a rate of 0.5 cm per day. If the ear
inessss [21]

Answer:

negative, inhibition

Explanation:

The experiment in the illustration shows that early succession plants have a <u>negative </u>effect on the late succession plants, and the observation is most consistent with the <u>inhibition</u> model of succession.

<em>That the late succession plant thrives better in the absence of the early succession plants means that the early succession plant has been impacting the growth of the late succession plant negatively. This is consistent with the inhibition model of succession.</em>

There are 3 different models of succession. These include;

  1. Facilitation model in which colonists modify the environment to favor the growth of later successional species.
  2. Tolerance model in which early colonists' modification of the environment has no positive or negative impact on the growth of later successional species.
  3. Inhibition model in which early colonists modify the environment to inhibit the growth of later successional species.
