consider a population of cheetahs, inhabiting a protected area in africa. in 2012, there were 112 cheetahs in this population. during that year, 60 of those animals reproduced and 48 new cubs were born. what constitutes the gene pool of the new generation made of those 48 new cubs?

All the alleles of all genes passed from the parents to the offspring.

Explanation:

During the process of reproduction, fertilization, zygote formation etc, the genes of the parents involved are passed down to the 48 new offsprings through the chromosomes.

Thus the gene pool which is defined as the set of all genes in any population, usually of a particular species will constitute all of the alleles of all the genes that were passed from the 60 parents to the 48 new offsprings.

endo:

regulates body hormones, aldosterone, vasopressin

neural:

signal, regulates body using electric signals, reflex

endo has to do with hormones; aldosterone and vasopressin are both hormones. i also had this question and got it right : d

c) 50% there are four chromosomes. after crossing over, 2 of the four have been changed. that means any gamete has a 2 in 4 chance or 50% chance of receiving the mutated chromosome.
