What is a gene ? a) a section of a protein that codes for dna. b) the alternate version of a trait. c) the visible trait in the f1 generation. d) a section of dna that codes for a specific trait .

Coat color in cats is determined by genes at several different loci. at one locus on the x chromosome, one allele (x ) encodes black fur and another allele (xo) encodes orange fur. females can be black (x x ), orange (xoxo), or a mixture of orange and black called tortoiseshell (x xo). males are either black (x y) or orange (xoy). bill has a female tortoiseshell cat named patches. one night, patches escapes from bill\'s house, spends the night out, and mates with a stray male. patches later gives birth to the following kittens: one orange male, one black male, two tortoiseshell females, and one orange female. what are the genotypes of patches, the stray male, and the kittens?

Which of the following factors would not contribute to allopatric speciation? a) a population becomes geographically isolated from the parent population. b) the separated population is small, and genetic drift occurs. c) the isolated population is exposed to different selection pressures than the ancestral population. d) different mutations begin to distinguish the gene pools of the separated populations. e) gene flow between the two populations is extensive.
