|
1) there is NO SELECTION : all individuals of the population survive at equal rates and contribute equal numbersto the gene pool
2) There is NO MUTATION : no new alleles are creates 3) There is NO MIGRATIONS: no one moves into or out of the population 4) The population is INFANTILY LARGE: there can be no genetic drift by chance 5) Individuals choose their mates AT RANDOM |
:)
|
|
if selection is occuring in a population then some phenotypes are more fit than others and they will have more offspring
|

|
It is called :
Homozygosity by Descent or Identity by Descent |
|
What are some causes of inbreeding?
|
1)If there is a "loop" in a pedigree drawing, there is possibility of inbreeding
2)If the alleles are passed down in both pathways of a loop are the alleles that cause inbreeding |
|
The inbreeding coefficient in a closed population will always increase
|
The inbreeding cofficient in a closed population will always increase
|
|
Inbreeding coefficient depends on the __________ size.__________ the population size can reduce the increment of inbreeding in the the population, but it cannot ____ the previous inbreeding.
|
Population
Increasing Undo |
|
Inbreeding ___________ in each generation and it ______ be reduced in a _____ population
|
Accumulates
Cannot Closed |
|
Why is inbreeding harmful?
|
it is due to rare recessive alleles that become homozygous.
|
|
Does intensive selection increase inbreeding coefficient even though mating among sibs and close relatives is avoided?
|
yes, selection reduces the effective population size in each generation. Therefore the possibility of mating between relatived individuals increases
|
|
How can breeders reduce the incrememnt of inbreeding in their breeding stocks?
|
1) Maintain a large population
2) Avoid mating among close relatives 3) Lower selection intensity 4) Line crosses |

What is the difference between Discontinuous and Continuous traits?
|
Discontinuous - are the traita which phenotypes are distributed into a range of classes (when talking about eggs you can have 1or 50 but not 23.4 (whole numbers only))
