What is Population Genetics?01:25

What is Population Genetics?

64.9K
A population is composed of members of the same species that simultaneously live and interact in the same area. When individuals in a population breed, they pass down their genes to their offspring. Many of these genes are polymorphic, meaning that they occur in multiple variants. Such variations of a gene are referred to as alleles. The collective set of all the alleles within a population is known as the gene pool.

What is Variation?

18.6K
Apart from the measures of central tendency, distribution, outliers, and the changing characteristics of data with time, an important characteristic of any data set is its variation or spread. In some data sets, the data values are concentrated closely near the mean; in others, the data values are more widely spread out from the mean.
The range, standard deviation, standard error, and variance are the different measures of variation.
Range: The range is the difference between its maximum and...

Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation

6.9K
Because the DNA segments are cut and reorganized in a direction-specific manner, site-specific recombination has emerged as an efficient genetic engineering technique. Flippase and Cyclization recombinases or Flp and Cre, respectively, are two members of the tyrosine recombinase family derived from bacteriophages, that are used to mediate site-specific DNA insertions, deletions, and targeted expression of proteins in mammalian cell lines.
The recognition sites for Cre recombinase called LoxP...

The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

Variation: Normal Distribution, Range, and Standard Deviation

In the field of psychology, there are several ways to organize measurements of a trait, feature, or characteristic (i.e., variables). Qualitative data, such as ethnicity, can be tabulated into a frequency count to provide information about the proportion, as well as the variety of groups in a sample or population. On the other hand, researchers can perform a wider set of calculations on quantitative data. The mean, mode, and median, for instance, are central tendency measures to identify a...

Variation

An important characteristic of any set of data is the variation in the data. In some data sets, the data values are concentrated closely near the mean; in other data sets, the data values are more widely spread out from the mean. The most common measure of variation, or spread, is the standard deviation, which is the square root of variance.
When independent and dependent variables are plotted on a scatter plot, the slope of a line is a value that describes the rate of change between the two...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Population growth significantly impacts racial integration. Growing areas within rapidly expanding U.S. metropolitan regions show the greatest decline in multigroup segregation, indicating increased residential mixing.

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Urban Studies
  • Demography

Background:

  • Metropolitan population growth is linked to reduced racial segregation.
  • Limited research exists on how small-scale population changes affect residential integration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between local population changes and multigroup racial/ethnic segregation.
  • To analyze segregation dynamics within U.S. metropolitan areas between 2000 and 2010.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a novel technique to track race/ethnicity population changes in comparable geographies (2000-2010).
  • Employed the Theil Index to measure multigroup segregation.
  • Classified local areas by net population change using aggregated census blocks.

Main Results:

  • Growing areas within rapidly growing metropolitan areas experienced the largest declines in multigroup segregation.
  • Growing areas in stagnant or shrinking metropolitan areas showed less diversity and smaller segregation decreases.
  • Shrinking population areas had higher minority representation in 2000 prior to population loss.

Conclusions:

  • The regional context of population growth or decline is critical for understanding shifts in residential racial mixing.
  • Local population dynamics within metropolitan areas play a key role in segregation trends.
