atural Selection - DA # 3 Flgure A shows the color of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) In the Nebraska Sand Hills (white area) and the rest of the State (grey area). Mice are shown on the habitat they are not nomally found on. The color of the Sand Hills Is shown below the light-colored mouse (normal habltat), while the color of the ground in the rest of the State is shown below the dark-colored mouse. Figure B shows the phenotyplc difference in the hair shaft of the wild-type and the light-colored (wideband) mice. Figure C shows the expressilon levels (MRNA) of the Agouti alleles responsīble for the phenotype seen in figure B. a+= wild-type Agouti alele, a-= a deletion of the Agouti allele, awb = wideband Agouti allele mutation, and the black rectangles undermeath each bar is the relative difference in the hair shaft band phenotype. Wder band means lighter hair color in the deer mice. b. The Sand Hills were created by volcanic activity 15,000-8,000 years ago. How were the deer mice…

Question:- Consider selection on two traits. The selection gradient on trait 1 is -0.2, and the selection gradient on trait 2 is 0.25. The additive genetic variance of traits 1 and 2 is 0.53 and 0.42, respectively, and they have a genetic covariance of 0.2. Round all answers to 3 decimal places. a) What will be the predicted evolution response of each trait? b) What would the predicted evolutionary response be if the covariance was 0? c) How does the genetic covariance between the traits influence evolution?
EXERCISE 5 MENDELIAN TRAITS IN HUMANS 1 While most human traits are polygenic, the traits in the chart below have traditionally been considered Mendelian traits. More recent research has disputed the single-gene nature of some of these traits, but for the purpose of this exercise, assume that the following traits are Mendelian. Work with a partner to help each other determine your own phenotypes and possible genotypes for these traits. Write your answers in the chart. (Note: Refer to the table on p. 62 for information about these traits.)

Which of the following are true? Select all that apply. O Some alleles contribute to the phenotype, and others do not. U Only one of the genes has an effect on the phenotype. O The combination of alleles determines how pigmented the skin will be. O Each allele only contributes a small amount to the phenotype. • Previous

Hox genes code for structural proteins* that affect the anterior-posterior axis during development. This statement is (T/F). • If true, enter x in the blanks below. • If false, then how would you change the sentence to make it correct? You can change two words at most. Changes that just reverse the meaning (e.g. changing "is" to "isn't" or "all" to "none") will not earn credit. I would change the word(s) to the word(s) to make the sentence correct. *"structural proteins" are proteins that give shape or form to cells (e.g. parts of the cytoskeleton, cell junctions, etc.)
