    進化論は,バランスのとれた性比は少数派の性選択から生じる,と示唆している. この研究では,温度に依存する性決定により性比が歪んだ魚群を観察し,時間の経過とともに1:1の比にシフトすることを示し,理論を確認しました.

    Types of Selection01:46

    Types of Selection

    Natural selection influences the frequencies of particular alleles and phenotypes within populations in several different ways. Primarily, natural selection can be directional, stabilizing, or disruptive. Directional selection favors one extreme trait and shifts the population towards that phenotype while selecting against individuals displaying alternate traits. Stabilizing selection favors an intermediate trait with a narrow range of variation. Deviation from the optimal phenotype towards an...
    Frequency-dependent Selection01:21

    Frequency-dependent Selection

    When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.Positive Frequency-Dependent SelectionIn positive...
    Natural Selection and Mating Preferences01:06

    Natural Selection and Mating Preferences

    The principle of natural selection posits that organisms better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. This principle is closely intertwined with mating preferences, a key aspect of sexual selection, which evolutionary psychologists believe is driven by instincts to propagate one's genes. Such instincts significantly influence mating behaviors and preferences between genders.
    Females, due to their biological roles in conception, pregnancy, and nursing, inherently...
    Speciation Rates01:07

    Speciation Rates

    Speciation can proceed at markedly different rates, and evolutionary biologists commonly describe these differences through the models of gradualism and punctuated equilibrium. Both patterns explain how new species arise, but they differ in the tempo and continuity of evolutionary change. In both cases, evolutionary change arises from heritable variation within populations, with natural selection often shaping traits that improve survival and reproduction under specific environmental conditions.
    Testing a Claim about Population Proportion01:24

    Testing a Claim about Population Proportion

    A complete procedure for testing a claim about a population proportion is provided here.
    There are two methods of testing a claim about a population proportion: (1) Using the sample proportion from the data where a binomial distribution is approximated to the normal distribution and (2) Using the binomial probabilities calculated from the data.
    The first method uses normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution. The requirements are as follows: sample size is large...
    Hardy-Weinberg Principle01:49

    Hardy-Weinberg Principle

    Diploid organisms have two alleles of each gene, one from each parent, in their somatic cells. Therefore, each individual contributes two alleles to the gene pool of the population. The gene pool of a population is the sum of every allele of all genes within that population and has some degree of variation. Genetic variation is typically expressed as a relative frequency, which is the percentage of the total population that has a given allele, genotype or phenotype.In the early 20th century,...
