• A hippopopulation has a locus with 2 alleles, one fast swimmer and the other slow swimmer. Fast swimmer is a dominantallele. • 70% of the gametes produced by the population contain fast swimmingallele. 1. What is the frequency of fast swimmerallele in the population? 2. If the population is […]

Assignment: Discussion-Species Interactions and You Humans interact with various species every day without actually realizing it. In the field of ecology, these interactions can either be interspecific (between species) or intraspecific (within species). Interactions between humans are known as intraspecific (within species) interactions. For example, interactions between a human and […]

1. What are some common treatments for removing, or making less evident, scar tissue on skin? What are the proposed mechanisms on how these treatments would work? 2. Discuss stem cell therapy as a method of regenerating areas of injury that normally would be replaced by scar tissue, such as […]

You have found a sex-limited gene that codes for male color in a Lake Victoria cichlid fish species. The dominant (R) allele codes for a red color and the recessive (r) allele codes for a greenish color. a) As you examine different populations of this species, you find that the […]
