Amaya collected insects in the forest. she was unable to identify one unusual looking insect using a dichotomous key. amaya concluded that the insect must be a new species. which facts would support the conclusion that the insect is a new species

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. transcription when genes are neither dominant nor recessive and display a blending of traits in the phenotype 2. translation converting the genetic code into the language of proteins 3. monohybrid cross genes that are carried on the x chromosome 4. incomplete dominance the transfer of genetic code from dna to an rna molecule 5. sex-linked genes the breeding of two organisms which differ in a single trait

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. over the past 60 years, many amphibian species have experienced significant population declines, and some species have become extinct. scientists suspected that local human activities such as the destruction of wetlands, regional pollution, and deforestation were the main reasons for these losses. however, research over the past 20 years reveals significant amphibian population declines in protected areas of the world, such as nature preserves and parks. these global declines suggest widespread problems including increased ultraviolet radiation, acid rain, and disease. in switzerland, for example, 14 of the 20 native amphibian species are threatened with extinction. when most populations of a wide-ranging amphibian species are lost and the few remaining populations are widely separated, we expect to see that a. the founder effect becomes increasingly important b. microevolution no longer occurs c. gene flow between populations is reduced d. artificial selection becomes a greater factor in microevolution

If the coding part of an mrna molecule is 1800 nucleotides (bases) in length, this molecule will contain codons and code for a polypeptide that is amino acids long.
