7. Describe how genetic variation might be measured in a species. 7a. Whats the theories that are used to explain evolutionary altruism.
Random assortment of chromosomes is one of the processes by which genetic variation is generated. Explain what the process means and how new variation is produced as a consequence of random assortment.
D 24. Why are processes that reduce within-population genetic variation often a problem for a population in the long run? Enter answer... D 25. How are bottlenecks and founder effects similar and how are they different in how they occur AND how they affect populations and their genetic diversity? Similarities: Differences: Enter answer...
Genetic differences between closely related species are due to changes at both synonymous and nonsynonymous sites (there can also be structural changes, including insertions and deletions, but disregard those for the moment). Do you expect the fraction of total differences at synonymous sites to be greater among elephant species or among nematode species? Explain your answer.

a) Why do species that reproduce sexually have more genetic variation than species that reproduce asexually? b) Why is it difficult to use genetics to predict exactly how tall someone will be? c) Many prokaryotes reproduce asexually using binary fission. Why is it impossible for a prokaryote to use the process of meiosis for reproduction? d) Monosomy is a genetic disorder. In this disorder, a person receives one gamete that has is missing a chromosome. This gives the person one...
A population of timber rattlesnakes in eastern Kentucky is surveyed to estimate genetic diversity and structuring of the species across the landscape. Six populations are tissue sampled and are genetically analyzed; these appear to be metapopulations that are fragmented and separated by surface mining. The following data describe the distribution of genetic diversity within this population. HP = 9%; DPT = 91%. Explain these findings and why they may or may not be important knowing that 3 of these 6...
3. (22 points) Researchers sampled mitochondrial DNA from populations of two species of insect herbivores throughout their range, which includes the North American mainland and the peninsula of Baja California, a map of the sampled populations is shown in Figure 2. They calculated haplotype diversity and counted number of haplotypes for each species (Table 3), performed an AMOVA (Table 4), and determined pairwise Fst values between populations, illustrated by the matrices in Tables 5 and 6. Based on these data,...
What is cross species transmission? – Explain the genetic mechanism of this phenomenon. Identify a cross species transmission disease. I have this question, and I have to answer it as essay (for my project). Can anyone help me, please can you type the answer. I don't understand the writing hand. sometime Thanks
