Bahamas Local, however, reports that a hurricane occurs about every three years with a major tropical storm every 12 years. Andros, Abaco and Grand Bahama are ranked in the top 10 places hit by tropical systems in the North Atlantic.
An example of a botanical genetic polymorphism is heterostyly, in which flowers occur in different forms with different arrangements of the pistils and the stamens. The system is called heteromorphic self-incompatibility, and the general 'strategy' of stamens separated from pistils is known as herkogamy.enetic polymorphism is actively and steadily maintained in populations by natural selection, in contrast to transient polymorphisms where a form is progressively replaced by another. By definition, genetic polymorphism relates to a balance or equilibrium between morphs.
Multiple gene (polygenic) inheritance explains many plant and animal traits where there is a wide variation between extreme phenotypes, with most individuals having intermediate phenotypes. Some examples of polygenic inheritance are: human skin and eye color; height, weight and inteligence in people; and kernel color of wheat. In fact, kernel color in wheat is nicely shown in Table 2. Table 2 is essential the same as Table 1, except the extremes in color are dark red and white, rather than black and white.
