You are interested in a new type of autosomal dominant mutation that gives purple eyes in Drosophila. You have a true-breeding purple-eyed line carrying a mutation that you call pr-1. You have isolated a second purple-eyed mutation that you call pr-2, which you have established in a true-breeding line that also carries a recessive marker st, which gives stubby legs. You cross a fly from the pr-1 line to a fly from the st, pr-2 line producing F1 females which you then cross to males from a true breeding st line (normal eyes). From this cross, 1000 progeny flies can be categorized into four different phenotypic classes:

                      

What is the relative order of st, pr-1 and pr-2?

Five Hypotheses Explain How Species Richness Affects Community Services, Following statement are given

A) Community services decline with decreased species richness in a stepwise fashion.

B) Species that play the same roles in a community can compensate for each other if some are lost under particular conditions

C) Species richness declines even slightly from its natural levels, community services are reduced immediately

D) Community services change as the number of species increases or decreases, but that the direction of change is not predictable.

Community 1 contains 100 individuals distributed among four species (A, B, C, and D). Community 2 contains 100 individuals distributed among three species (A, B, and C). Community 1: 5A, 5B, 85C, 5D Community 2: 30A, 40B, 30C Calculate the Shannon diversity (H) for each community.
