(a) the average genetic value of animal selected for breeding and average genetic value of all the animals in the species is called as selection differential.
and it is also difference of base population size mean (45) and mean of selected parents which is, in first generation is 35 and in second generation it is 40 so mean of both is 37.5
so the difference would be 7.5
selection difference = 45-37.5 = 7.5
(b) for first generation it would be
when we consider equation R=h2S
h2=R/S
R=Response to selection (the difference of mean in first generation is 10)
S=Selection difference (7.5)
h2= 10/7.5= 1.3 for the first generation and so heritability = -1.1
h2= 5/7.5= 0.66 for second generation and here it would be = -0.8.

1) can empathy lead us astrary? how
2) our heart will always go out to the baby in the well, its a
measure of our humanity. but empathy will have to yield to reason
if humanity is to have a future can empathy yield to reason?
how?
