Did you have to include no gene flow in the physical isolation?

[shinny]

Cloning copies a whole genome .

Not necessarily. As stated by mavisgibbons, it can just be a single gene.

yeasaaa...otherwise theres no way theyd becum reproductively isolateeddd

[qshyrn]

would 'Gene duplication' be an accepted answer lol?

I failed to include lack of gene flow. All I said was that members of each population could not cross the barrier, so I hope no gene flow is implied by that remark.

I was happy to see that VSSRIG question after it. Thanks, Munto.

[kenhung123]

Maybe they will accept both answers?

[shinny]

Doubt it. Gene duplication actually refers to a specific type of mutation. Same effect, but it's too specific, and yeh, it's a mutation, not the act of intentionally copying a gene by humans.

What did you guys write for that piglet question...it was so weird. MCQ

I was happy to see that VSSRIG question after it. Thanks, Munto.

What was the VSSRIG qn?

[shinny]

DNA Replication seems good then .

But as you said, DNA replication refers more to the cell-mediated process of copying entire chromosomes, as opposed to a human-mediated process of copying individual genes.

oh I'm an idiot, I said the technition incorrectly loaded the gels, and they are not going in the positive direction, I've made so many silly mistakes, and i realised a 3 mark question I knew it, it but hte examiner said pens down.

[kenhung123]

WAIT! VCAA solutions doesn't show no gene flow in one of the answers in previous exams! YES!!!!

There was no VSSRIG question??

There was something along the lines of it. I think it had something to do with how a new species could arise out of that geographic isolation (I think that's allopatric speciation).

Also, andrewloppol, I'm with you on DNA replication.

But Shiney says its cloning and its hard to doubt this guy...49...

Q7
in pigs, the number of teats and litter size are under genetic control. Each piglet must have ready access to a teat. british breeds of female pigs (sows) generally have 12 teats and 11 piglets each litter. Some of the traditional british breed of pigs have been crossed with the chinese meisham pig. chinese meisham sows have up to 18 teats and average 16 piglets each litter. this xbreeding has produced a hybrid pig called the manor meisham.with respect to these breeding exp, it is most likely that.
a. british farmers wanted to produce smaller size litters.
b. chinese farmers wanted to produce larger sized litters
c. british sows were mated with meisham males
d. meisham sows were mated with british males
