category

biology

options

  1. Gene pool is the total number of organisms in a population; balanced polymorphism is a genetic imbalance; genetic load is the genetic weight of an organism.
  2. Gene pool refers to the physical pool where genes are stored; balanced polymorphism is the imbalance of allele frequencies; genetic load is the amount of genetic information carried by an organism.
  3. Gene pool is the sum total of genes in a population; balanced polymorphism is when different forms of a genotype are maintained in equilibrium over time; genetic load is the reduction in average fitness due to presence of suboptimal forms.
  4. Gene pool is the total genetic information in the gametes of a population; balanced polymorphism is the consistent occurrence of a single allele; genetic load is the genetic diversity within a species.
  5. Gene pool is the collection of genes in a single organism; balanced polymorphism is the variation of a single gene; genetic load is the number of genes in an organism.
  6. Gene pool refers to a single gene; balanced polymorphism refers to a dominance of one gene; genetic load refers to the genetic burden of an organism.
  7. Gene pool is the total number of alleles in a population; balanced polymorphism is the maintenance of two or more alleles at a locus by natural selection; genetic load is the proportion of individuals in a population with genetic defects.
  8. Gene pool is the diversity of genes in a population; balanced polymorphism is the dominance of a single gene; genetic load is the genetic capacity of an organism.
  9. Gene pool is the sum of all genetic variations in a closed environment; balanced polymorphism is the equal representation of all alleles in a population; genetic load is the accumulated genetic mutations in a population.
  10. Gene pool is the set of all genetic traits in a biological community; balanced polymorphism is when one allele is favored over others; genetic load is the genetic contribution of an organism to its offspring.
