GGG and GGC are codons for the amino acid, glycine. A mutation caused the insetion of a cytosine in place of the guanine during DNA replicatoin. over many generations the DNA changes so that the frequency of GGC is similar to that of GGG. What effect does this mutation have on the population's mean fitness?

Which of the following is an example of this type of co-evolution

1. the passing of is the basis of heredity. 2. our encode the instructions that define our traits. 3. each of us has thousands of genes, which are made of and reside in our chromosomes. 4. in addition to our genes, the we live in also define our traits. 5. humans have two complete sets of chromosomes. 6. when parents conceive a child, each parent contributes set of chromosomes. 7. every child receives of its chromosomes from the mother and half from the father. 8. this transfer takes place at when the father’s sperm joins the mother’s egg. 9. while most cells in our bodies have two sets of chromosomes, or a total of egg and sperm each have chromosomes. 10. when egg and sperm unite they create a single cell called a 11. each parent contributes complete set of chromosomes to their child. 12. since the parents contribute the chromosomes to each new child, every child inherits a unique set of chromosomes. 13. as a result, every baby will have a combination of traits.

All individuals have two alleles for a given trait. according to mendel's these alleles are passed down one each from both mother and father.
