The percentage of the white salamander population is 16%.

<h3>Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Equation</h3>

The genotypic frequencies within a population can be expressed by the binomial (p + q)² = 1, which can be developed and represented by the following equation:

  • p² + 2pq + q² = 1

p = frequency of the dominant allele;

q = frequency of the recessive allele;

p² = frequency of the zygous dominant genotype;

2pq = frequency of the heterozygous genotype;

q² = frequency of the zygous recessive genotype.

Also according to the equation presented (p² + 2pq + q² = 1), we will have the following distribution of genotypes:

  • CC = 0.36 = 36%
  • Cc = 0.48 = 48%
  • cc = 0.16 = 16%

DNA is a nucleic acid molecule that undergoes a replication process to form a new daughter strand. The blue segment is the parental strand, and the yellow is the daughter strand.

<h3>What is replication?</h3>

Replication is the process of the central dogma that duplicates the copy of the parent strand into new daughter strands. The two helixes of the parent strand get separated to make the complimentary copy of the new strand.

The daughter DNA is semi-conservative and are complementary structure made from the duplication of the parent strand with the help of the replication enzymes.

Therefore, the daughter strands are the semi-conservative copies of the parental strand.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

B. Use the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to make multiple copies of the DNA.

Explanation:

The scientist is to analyze a small sample of DNA, the most useful step to start this would be first the use of polymerase chain reaction to make various copies of that DNA sample. PCR is essential and quick process that gives a lot of copies within few hours. It uses the sample or target DNA, according to which the primers are designed. Taq polymerase and DNA polymerase are also used in the process, it consist of various cycles in which copies are made. There are three basic steps 'Denaturation', 'annealing', and 'extension'.

Give the definition of parasympathetic nervous system?
SashulF [63]

Answer: Autonomic nervous system is made up of 3 divisions; Sympathetic nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic division. All these divisions are involuntary actions where parasympathetic is ultimately responsible for the "rest and digest" part of it. When the body is at rest the parasympathetic nervous system inhibits or lowers high energy requiring bodily functions.

This nervous system will lower any fight or flight response actions such as the release of epinephrine into the blood and enable digestion, urination and defeacation. When engaged in digestion you feel relaxed and at rest, this is solely due to the parasympathetic nevous system.
