Gene flow occurs through generations. Gene flow can occur across language barriers in humans. If we have a technique of measuring specific allele frequencies in different population of the world, can we not predict human migratory patterns in pre-history and history ? Do you agree or disagree ? Provide explanation to your answer.
Yes, I agree. Gene flow occurs through generations.
- By studying specific allele frequencies, human migratory patterns in prehistory and history can be predicted.
Studies have used specific genes/chromosomes/mitochondrial $DNA$ to trace the evolutionary history and migratory patterns of humans. (The project is known as the Human Genographics Project).
Natural selection where more individuals acquire specific character value other than the mean character value, leads to:
Factor affecting the Hardy-Weinberg principles are
$I.$ gene flow
$II.$ genetic drift
$III.$ mutation
$IV.$ genetic recombination
$V.$ natural selection
The correct combination is
Natural selection in which more individuals acquire peripheral character value at both the ends of the distribution curve is
What is founder effect ?
