Answer No 1: True

Gene pool can be described as the number of genes which are present in a population of organisms which can interbreed. All the genetic information that is present in a population is the gene pool. As genes are made up of alleles, all the alleles which are present in a population will make up the gene pool.

Answer No 2: False

In genetics, a population can be described as the members of a species which can interbreed and produce fertile offsprings that are living in a certain area during a certain time period.

The option 2 is false because it does not specify area and time period in the definition.

Answer No 3: False

Over time, the genetic composition of a population will change. The organisms which will better adapted to survive to the environmental changes will survive and reproduce. The organisms which are not properly adapted might not be able to survive at all or they might become lesser in number. Hence, the genetic composition keeps changing depending on environmental changes.

Answer No 4: True

Population genetics can be described as a study of the genetic variations which occur in a certain population. It evaluates the gene frequency and how the gene frequency changes for a certain gene changes over time in a population.

Population genetics helps us to recognize the alleles which are better suited for an environment and which are present in a certain environment in abundance.

Answer from: Quest

interphase is the cell cycle stage in which the cell acquires nutrients, creates and uses proteins and other molecules and starts the process of cell division by replicating the dna. it is the longest stage in the eukaryote cell cycle.

the following can go wrong during interphase: a base pair could be mismatched during the duplication process causing a mutation. correct answer: c

explanation:

Answer from: Quest

Cell division is important to single celled organisms because it allows the cells to reproduce. through cell division, cells make exact copies of themselves. when single celled organisms go through cell division, they make exact copies of themselves which is how they reproduce.
