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%

Internal membrane connected to the external membrane where energy production may occur and which may help cell division
Paha777 [63]
Mitochondria are unusual organelles. They act as the power plants of the cell, are surrounded by two membranes, and have their own genome. They also divide independently of the cell in which they reside, meaning mitochondrial replication is not coupled to cell division. Some of these features are holdovers from the ancient ancestors of mitochondria, which were likely free-living prokaryotes.

5 facts about Anaphase Mitosis ?
Klio2033 [76]
The sister chromatids are then pulled apart by the mitotic spindle which pulls one chromatid to one pole and the other chromatid to the opposite pole.

The chromosomes line up neatly end-to-end along the centre (equator) of the cell.
The centrioles are now at opposite poles of the cell with the mitotic spindle fibres extending from them.
The mitotic spindle fibres attach to each of the sister chromatids.

The DNA in the cell is copied in preparation for cell division, this results in two identical full sets of chromosomes?.
Outside of the nucleus? are two centrosomes, each containing a pair of centrioles, these structures are critical for the process of cell division.

Carrots that have been cut into pieces have a shorter
xz_007 [3.2K]
When you cut up the carrot you increase the surface area of the carrot substantially. This increased surface area reacts with the atmosphere and makes the carrot (collectively the pieces) more exposed to bacteria and as a result the cut up carrots will go bad before the carrots as a whole.
