Answer:
Some genes mask the expression of other genes just as a fully dominant allele masks the expression of its recessive counterpart. A gene that masks the phenotypic effect of another gene is called an epistatic gene; the gene it subordinates is the hypostatic gene.

Answer each question, using it as an opportunity to illustrate the depth of your knowledge in this area.
1. One of the fundamental controls which ecosystems exert over individual species is limits on population size. This is done by a combination of predatory, competitive, parasitic and mutualistic relationships within the ecosystem. Never the less, the human population has increased well beyond what is healthy for those systems. How did we manage to grow beyond these limitations?
2. Natural variations in weather patterns have effects on certain populations. A warm damp spring for example, is ideal for small rodent species and certain insects, who benefit from the lush vegetation produced by this pattern. As a result, their populations swell to high levels. In the end however, this doesn't result in population growth at the higher tropic levels. You don't end up with more predators, just fatter predators. What limits the ability of the higher tropic levels to grow in response to the increased availability of food?
3. An unfortunate series of events finds you stranded on a remote uninhabited south Pacific island, with little chance of being rescued. It is a modest-sized island with adequate resources to support you, if you are careful to minimize your impact on it. You know that inserting yourself into this ecosystem will almost certainly mean the loss of members in some populations, so your goal is to minimize your impact on the overall biodiversity of the system. With this in mind, from which tropic level(s) should you obtain your food?
Answer:
1. Humans are an “invasive species” because human populations have eliminated many ecological relationships, dramatically changing the dynamic of their ecosystems
2. continued loss of energy due to metabolic activities
3. lower trophic levels
Explanation:
1. An invasive species is any organism that is not native to an ecosystem and may negatively alter its new environment. Invasive species don't interact with native species when they are introduced into an ecosystem (for example, invasive species usually don't have any natural predators). Humans are an 'invasive species' that occupy a wide range of habitats and whose presence has caused the extinction of many native plants and animals. Human populations have drastically reduced the biodiversity of different ecosystems by competing with native species for limited resources, and we also have altered their habitats (global human population growth is also due to medicine and farming techniques, reducing hunger and diseases). In this regard, it is important to highlight that the human population can also grow in an ecologically sustainable manner by taking care of the ecosystems we live in.
2. Animals (predators) are consumers, thereby they depend on lower trophic levels for their food supply. The Second Law of Thermodynamics indicates that the continual loss of energy due to metabolic activities at lower trophic levels leads to a decrease in the amount of available energy at higher trophic levels. In consequence, the population size decreases at higher levels due to the amount of energy available from one lower level to the next higher level has to decrease when it is used for metabolic activities (i.e., growth, development, etc).
3. In the food chain, the primary producers are found at the lower trophic level (e.g., plants). Primary producers are followed by consumers (e.g., herbivores), they are followed by secondary consumers (i.e., carnivores that eat herbivores), and so on. When an invasive species at higher trophic levels is introduced into a new ecosystem (in this case, human species), it is imperative to preserve the biodiversity (and consequently also the productivity) at lower trophic levels because they are fundamental for the survival of higher trophic levels (i.e., consumers).
brown eye color is dominate; blue is recessive.if a brown-eyed man marries a blue-eyed woman and they have a brown eyed boy and a blue eyed girl, what can we conclude about the parents?
Answer: first baby - dads dominant brown colored eyes

You are screening three new pesticides for potential mutagenicity using the Ames test. Two his- strains resulting from either a frameshift or a transition mutation were used and produced the following results (number of revertant colonies):
Strain 1
Transition Mutant Control (no chemical) Transition Mutant + Chemical Transition Mutant + Chemical + Rat Liver Enzymes
Pesticide#1 21 180 19
Pesticide#2 18 19 17
Pesticide#3 25 265 270
Strain 2 Framshift Mutant Control (no chemical) Framshift Mutant + Chemical Framshift Mutant + Chemical + Rat Liver Enzymes
Pesticide#1 5 4 5
Pesticide#2 7 5 93
Pesticide#3 6 9 7
Required:
What type of mutations, if any, do the three pesticides induce?
Answer:
- Pesticide 1: Induces transition mutations. Rat liver enzymes convert it into a nonmutagenic product. Does not induce frameshift mutations.
- Pesticide 2: Does not induce transition mutations. Rat liver enzymes convert it into frameshift mutagen.
- Pesticide 3: Induces transition mutations. Rat liver enzymes don't have ability to convert compounds into mutagens. Does not induce frameshift mutations.
Explanation:
The Ames test is a technique widely used to evaluate the mutagenic potential of a particular chemical compound. The Ames test uses Salmonella typhimurium strains with a defective mutation that makes them unable to synthesize histidine. When the mutation is reversed, then the revertant strains can grow on a medium lacking histidine. A positive test shows that the chemical is mutagenic because its activity is associated with the reversed mutation and thereby the mutant gene regains its function. In humans, as well as in other mammals, many chemicals don't have mutagenic effects themselves but they may become converted into mutagens when are metabolized by the body. For that reason, rat liver enzymes are added to replicate the metabolic effects of the chemical compound being tested. Nowadays, current tests can express recombinant human proteins instead of rat liver enzymes, thereby enabling a better correlation between mutagenic activity and human metabolic processes.

Explain the suns role in generating ocean currents
Answer:
When the sun heats water at the surface of the ocean, some of the water will evaporate and increase the concentration of salt in the water at the surface. ... This process, combined with fresh water flowing into the ocean from river and changing the salt concentration of the water, contributes to ocean currents.

based on the living things in the pyramid, tell me what examples would fit into these categories: primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers
Answer:
Primacy Producers----- Oak tree , primary consumers------ Caterpillars , secondary consumers ------- blue jays, and tertiary consumers ----- hawk.
Explanation:
Oak tree refers to the primacy Producers in this pyramid because it produces food by using the solar energy. Caterpillars are primary consumers that feeds on the producers and also known as herbivores, blue jays are the secondary consumers that feeds on the primary consumer which is the caterpillar, and tertiary consumers are the hawk that feeds on the secondary consumer i.e. blue jays. In this way, energy flows in the food chain of an ecosystem. During this flow of energy, only 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to another while the remaining releases in the environment in the form of heat energy.
