If a trait 'A' exists in 10% of a population of an asexually reproducing species and a trait 'B' exists in 60% of the same population, which trait is likely to have arisen earlier?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1. Trait B.
2. In asexual reproduction the traits which are present in previous generation are carried over to meet generation with minor variations
3. therefore the traits present in high percentage have higher chances of persisting earlier

The necessary condition for a molecule to exhibit optical isomerism is dissymmetry or chiral. Thus all organic compounds which contain one as symetric carbon atom are chiral and exist in two stereoisomers. Although the two forms have the same structure, they have different arrangements of groups about the as symmetric carbon. In fact, they represent as symetric molecules. They do not have a plane of symmetry. They are related to each other as an object to its mirror image and are non superimposable. The two structures actually stand for dextro or (+) and leavo or (-) isomers. Since they are related each other as mirror images, they are commonly called enantiomers. Consider the following structures A,B,C,D Which of the following statements is not correct
