In 1988, Richardson and Richardson observed that certain amino acid residues are statically favored as the amino-terminal caps for the alpha helices in 45 globular proteins. Which of the following statement stand correct with stability of helix?

A. The introduction of a negatively charged side chain at the N-cap, which can neutralize the partial dipole created by the unpaired amide protons, has been shown to increase stability

B. In particular, Gly is often observed at the both C-cap position and N-cap positions

C. In particular, Gly is often observed at the C-cap position only

D. In particular, Gly is often observed at the C-cap position, Asn at the N-cap position, Pro at the Ncap+1 and Asp and Glu at N2 and N3

In balancing selection, two or more alleles are kept in balance, and therefore are maintained in a population over the course of many generations. Which of the following example can support balancing natural selection?

A- Sickle cell allele kept in balance because heterozygotes have greater chance of survival if infected by the malarial parasite, compared with normal homozygotes

B. One morph has selective advantage over another morph

C. One homozygote has greater chance of survival than other genotype results in purity of population

D. many species of invertebrates exist as different colored forms, identical in all respects except color. Visually searching predators often develop a search image for one color form, usually the commoner

The amount of change in q is directly proportional to the migration (m); The magnitude of change is also affected by the differences in allelic frequencies of the two populations (qI - qII); What is amount of change when 200 migratory individuals are merge in recipient population size of 1800. Allele frequency of q1 of source and recipient population is .80 and .20 respectively.

Imagine a plant of extremely variable height that is pollinated by three different pollinators, one that was attracted to short plants, another that preferred plants of medium height and a third that visited only the tallest plants. If the pollinator that preferred plants of medium height disappeared from an area. What is concluding of this condition?
