A particular gene has two alleles, a dominant allele A and a recessive allele a. The frequency of allele A is 0.55. If the popul

ation is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the gene, then what is the expected frequency of genotype Aa

If p = frequency of A and q = frequency of a, then assuming H-W equilibrium we have

p + q = 1   ⇒   q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45

Then the expected frequency of the heterozygous genotype Aa is 2pq = 2 • 0.55 • 0.45 = 0.495.

What are the functions of the high-energy electrons in the electron transport chain?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Transporting Electrons

As the high-energy electrons are transported along the chains, some of their energy is captured. This energy is used to pump hydrogen ions (from NADH and FADH2) across the inner membrane, from the matrix into the intermembrane space. Electron transport in a mitochondrion is shown in Figure below.

Why is it important to study the theory of plate tectonics and continental drift?
Dvinal [7]
It is practical knowledge in the sense that we know why some parts of the world are inherently risky to live in. Even though volcanic eruptionis, earthquakes and tsunamis are difficult to predict, it makes sense to have building codes and emergency plans that take this into account.

It is science’s response to the beliefs that natural catastrophes (volcanism, earthquakes and tsunamis) are divine punishments for the evil ways of some individuals.

Even if you will never use or apply this knowledge, knowing about the theory of plate tectonics gives you a current scientific perspective on what we know about the natural world.

It is a good example of how scientific theories proceed by trying to fit several observations into a coherent explanation.

Learning about the observations that needed to be made and explained for the theory to win over scientists helps caution you against people who adopt belief systems without questioning the myths told to them, or those who try to profit from ignorance of how nature actually works.

When it is well taught, it should convince you that, like any scientific theory, plate tectonics is a “work in progress”. New discoveries continue to be made, and it takes creative and logical thinking, debate and a quest for more observations in order to determine which ones prove or challenge the current theory and which ones may lead to its refinement.
