Where does the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA take place?
The transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA takes place in the Nucleus during the process of Transcription.
Genetic drift tens to occur in populations that?
Genetic drift has a larger effect on smaller populations.
What is it called when a bacterium uses a virus to transfer its DNA another bacterium?
Transduction
Does genetic drift occur in small or large populations?
Small populations.
Which of the following is best defined as the transfer of genetic information from one population to another?
Gene flow.
What is the main factor that leads to speciation between two populations?
Lack of exchange of genetic information.
What is the intentional alteration or transfer of genetic material called?
The transfer of genetic information is called conjugation. It involves transfer of genetic information from one bacterial cell to another, and requires physical contact between the two bacteria involved.
What is it called when two populations share genetic information?
Genetic drift
Where does the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA take place?
The transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA takes place in the Nucleus during the process of Transcription.
Genetic differences between populations tend to be reduced by?
Gene flow tends to reduce diffences between populations.
Which of the following is the most predictable outcome of increased gene flow between two populations?
decreases genetic difference between two populations
What is the definition of genetic distance?
The "distance" or similarity between the allelic frequency of two separate populations. *Usually the two populations are separated over a significant geographic distance.
Which describes how mRNA is used by a cell?
It is used to transfer the code for protein synthesis
Genetic drift tens to occur in populations that?
Genetic drift has a larger effect on smaller populations.
What is it called when a bacterium uses a virus to transfer its DNA another bacterium?
Transduction
What is the origin of genetic variation?
They have extremely short generation times and large populations. They can exchange DNA with many types of prokaryotes by way of horizontal gene transfer
What is when bacteria temporary join and transfer genetic information to one another?
This is called conjugation.
