What else can I help you with?
How does the birth rate change the size of a population?
More babies, more members of the population.
If the standard deviation of a population is zero what can you say about the members of that population?
Everyone is average, whether that average is the mean, median, or mode.
The relative arrangement of the members of a statistical population?
Distribution.
What is described by the sentence 'the members of a population are small in size the young mature early they get little care from their parents and they have a short life span'?
Opportunistic populationthe members of a population are small in size the young mature they get little care from their parents and they have a short life span?C. Opportunistic population
What does all the population in a certain area make up?
What I believe you are referring to is cluster sampling or cluster. In cluster sampling, the population is divided into clusters and all population members in the cluster are sampled.
What populations is likely to have the most genetic variation among its members?
Populations with high levels of gene flow, such as human populations with diverse ancestry or certain plant species with widespread pollen dispersal mechanisms, are likely to have the most genetic variation among its members. This is because gene flow introduces new genetic material and increases variation within the population.
What is the significance of the members of a homologous pair of chromosomes in genetic inheritance?
The members of a homologous pair of chromosomes are important in genetic inheritance because they carry similar genes, one from each parent. During meiosis, these chromosomes exchange genetic material through crossing over, leading to genetic variation in offspring. This process ensures that each individual has a unique combination of genetic traits inherited from both parents.
What is variation among members of the same species called?
Variation among members of the same species is called genetic diversity. This diversity arises from differences in genetic makeup, leading to variations in traits such as physical appearance, behavior, and susceptibility to diseases. Genetic diversity is important for a species' ability to adapt to changing environments and to evolve over time.
Why genetic variation is of to benefit to a population?
Genetic variation provides a population with a better chance of survival in changing environments. It allows for adaptation to new challenges, such as diseases or climate changes, and increases the likelihood of some individuals passing on advantageous traits to their offspring. This diversity also helps to prevent inbreeding and reduces the risk of genetic disorders.
What is dispersion in statistics?
Statistical dispersion, a quantifiable variation of measurements of differing members of a population
What trem describes the exchange of genetic material between members of a homologous pair of chromosomes?
Crossing over is the term that describes the exchange of genetic material between members of a homologous pair of chromosomes during meiosis. This process increases genetic diversity by reshuffling alleles between homologous chromosomes.
What makes up a gene pool of a population?
A gene pool of a population is made up of all the different alleles (versions of a gene) present in the individuals that make up the population. It represents the genetic diversity within a population. The more diverse the gene pool, the greater the genetic variability within the population.
What is a characteristic that improves a individuals ability to survive and reproduce in a particular environment?
having genetic variation among most of its members
What are 2 sources of genetic variation in a population?
Any two of: Mutations Non-disjunctions during anaphase of meiosis Polyploidy Sexual reproduction e.g. crossing-over/recombination during meiosis IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE STUDYISLAND ANSWER IT IS a population whose members have many different traits
The combined genetic information of all members of a particular population is the population's?
The combined genetic information of all members of a particular population is the population's gene pool. This gene pool contains all of the genetic variations that exist within the population, which can influence the population's ability to adapt to environmental changes and evolve over time.
What is all the combined genetic information of all the members of a population?
Gene Pool
Gene pool?
Combined genetic information of all the members of a particular population
