The cyanide gives the clover a bitter taste, thus making it less palatable and less likely to be eaten. It happens that when clover freezes, some cells rupture, releasing cyanide into the plant tissues and killing the plant In this example… …what is the genetic variation? …which trait do you expect is selected for? what is the selective advantage of this adaptation? …which clover trait is selected for in warm climates that do not experience freezing temperatures? which trait is selected for in NYS? F. The inherited disease hypercholesterolemia affects about 1 in 500 people worldwide. It occurs more frequently in some populations including Afrikaners, French Canadians, Lebanese, and Finns. Hypercholesterolemia is caused by mutations which are passed from parent to child, down through the generations, which cause cholesterol levels in the blood to be EXTREMELY high resulting in a variety of health problems including clogged arteries which can lead to heart attack, stroke, and death. If not medically managed, the disease can lead to early death. Folks without these mutations do not have the disease and can expect more typical blood levels of cholesterol. In a well-developed paragraph, explain what are the two variations of the trait being considered here, what is the selective pressure, and which trait you think gets selected for; that is, which trait is the better adaptation and occurs with greater frequency in a population.
