Question:
Artificial selection to obtain cows yielding higher milk output represents
Artificial selection to obtain cows yielding higher milk output represents
Updated On: Apr 21, 2025
- Stabilizing selection as it stabilizes this character in the population
- Directional as it pushes the mean of the character in one direction
- Disruptive as it splits the population into two one yielding higher output and the other lower output
- Stabilizing followed by disruptive as it stabilizes the population to produce higher yielding cows

A bob of heavy mass \(m\) is suspended by a light string of length \(l\). The bob is given a horizontal velocity \(v_0\) as shown in figure. If the string gets slack at some point P making an angle \( \theta \) from the horizontal, the ratio of the speed \(v\) of the bob at point P to its initial speed \(v_0\) is :

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
