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%

3. In tropical regions,
marin [14]

Answer:

a, a permanent thermocline traps nutrients in the deep water

b. primary productivity is high all year round, because there is a constant supply of solar energy for  photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Thermocline occurs in the tropical regions because the temperature is very high which warms the upper layer of water bodies whereas the lower layer of water has low temperature due to no sunlight. The primary productivity is high all year in the tropical regions, because there is a constant supply of sunlight that is needed by the plants for  preparing their own food.
