Question 18 1 pts The figure shows the effect of late-acting and early-acting deleterious mutations on survivorship curves. What do the differences in these curves mean for the evolution of senescence? A Late-acting mutation B Early-acting mutation C Comparison of survworship curves is decreased decreased from day 160 10 day 180 by Indviduels with 07 Time days Time days Click to view larger image. Selection acts more strongly on early-acting mutations, which are less likely to get eliminated from the population Selection acts more weakly on late-acting mutations, which are less likely to get eliminated from the population Selection acts more weakly on early-acting mutations, which are less likely to get eliminated from the population Selection acts more strongly on late-acting mutations, which are more likely to get eliminated from the population

Explanation / Answer

Question 1-

Late acting mutations have lesser tendency to affect population than early acting. It is also depicting by graphs. Therefore, selections are more prominent in early acting because they will survive lesser. Therefore, the second option is the answer. Here selections act weakly on late acting.

Question 2- The 4th option is correct. It is because in wild type allele we get increased population even at the time when new alleles die.

Question 3- the 1st opiton is correct. Bacteria are immortal, they can reproduce organism like them. they are unicellular and cannot differentiate between germcell and somatic cell.
