There are two species of freshwater shrimp that are introduced to a pond. The first species, Caridina cantonensis, is brightly colored with red and white stripes. The second species, Caridina multidentata, is more mottled drab in coloration. Fish have an easier time finding and eating Caridina cantonensis due to their bright colors. When each of these species reproduce they produce about 100 offspring, but only 30% Caridina cantonensis offspring survive to reproductive age, while 75% Caridina multidentata offspring survive to reproductive age.
A. In this situation what is natural selection selecting for?
B. In this situation what is natural selection selecting against?
C. How do you predict this population will evolve?
D. Identify how each of the listed conditions from the above scenario that influence natural selection. Population must have variation. Some variations are favorable More offspring are produced than survive Those that survive have favorable traits Differential reproductive success

A. Colour of the freshwater shrimp

B. Predator fish problem

C. Based on the number of offsprings that has survived

D. Differential reproductive success

Explanation:

A. The freshwater shrimp species C. cantonensis is brightly coloured which is easy to find by fish whereas C. multidentata is mottled drab in colour which can hide in the environment. Therefore the natural selection will select for the mottled drab of the shrimp.

B. The mottled drab colour of the shrimp will be selected against the predator species which feeds on the shrimp population as the predator species can find the brightly coloured species easily but the mottled drab colour will not be found.

C. The population is evolving can be identified based on the number of population found in that area as 75% of C. multidentata species reach reproductive stage while only 30% of C. cantonensis reach the reproductive rate.

D. The condition will be known as Differential reproductive success.

transcription is a process in which information is rewritten. it is something our cells must do, in a more specialized and narrowly defined way. in biology, transcription is the process of copying out the dna sequence of a gene in the similar alphabet of rna. it needs to happen in the nucleus because that's where the dna is. dna is always inside the nucleus unless the cell is dividing.

transcription is the first step in gene expression, which involves copying a gene's dna sequence to make an rna molecule. transcription is performed by rna polymerases. it has three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination. rna molecules must be processed after transcription in eukaryotes.

explanation:

long version:

the protein synthesis consists two processes which are, transcription and translation. transcription takes place in the nucleus. it uses dna as a template to make an rna molecule. rna then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. transcription is the first part of the central dogma of molecular biology: dna → rna. it is the transfer of genetic instructions in dna to messenger rna (mrna). during transcription, a strand of mrna is made that is complementary to a strand of dna.  

these three stages are:

  initiation: in which   is the beginning of transcription.occuring when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

    elongation: in which is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

    termination: in which is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
