There are 40 white beans representing the recessive allele, (b), which codes for white fur. There are 40 brown beans representing the dominant allele, (B), which codes for brown fur. Account for random shifts in allele frequency. Genetic drift is at play in this population and causes random shifts in the allele frequency for fur color. No matter what their fur color is, two of the individuals in the population simply do not produce any offspring. Remove the first and last genotypes (pairs of beans) you laid out for your population, and set them aside. They will not contribute genetic information to future generations.

Required:
a. What were the two genotypes that were randomly eliminated?
b. Will their elimination influence future allele frequencies in the population? If so, how?

Ameadow ecosystem includes many species of grasses and small shrubs, several herbivores, and a few carnivores. a fungus colonizes the meadow and kills most of its vegetation. what is most likely to happen to the populations of herbivores and carnivores in the ecosystem? a. the populations of herbivores and carnivores will increase because there will be less competition for chemical energy. b. the populations of herbivores and carnivores will remain stable because the fungus cannot infect these organisms. c. the populations of herbivores will decrease because of vegetation loss, but the population of carnivores will remain stable. d. the populations of herbivores and carnivores will decline because less chemical energy will be stored in the ecosystem.
