Mutations increase due to the decmoposition of the ozone because it can allow the penetration of UV radiations such as UVA, UVB, and UVC to reach Earth. These types of radiations can harm us by causing certain diseases in humans such as skin cancer, eye damage, and of course, mutations.

In a population of plants, the allele for long stems (S) is completely dominant over the allele for short stems (s). If 35% of t
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be 48 percent.

It can be solved by using the Hardy-Weinberg equation.

p² +  2pq+ q²  = 1

p + q = 1

where, p² represents homozygous dominant's frequency that is, SS in this case,

q² represents homozygous recessive's frequency that is, ss in this case,

2pq represents heterozygous dominant's frequency that is, Ss in this case.

p represents dominant allele's frequency and q represents the recessive allele's frequency.

Now, the percentage of homozygous recessive or short stems is 35%. Therefore, the frequency of homozygous recessive would be 0.35.

Thus, the value of q² = 0.35

So, q = \sqrt{0.35} = 0.59 which is approximately equals to 0.6.

As p + q = 1 so, q = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

The frequency of heterozygous (Ss) = 2pq = 2(0.6)(0.4) = 0.48

Hence, the frequency of heterozygous would be 48 percent.

Describe the factors that affect saturation of water and the relative humidity in air
joja [24]

Answer: is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor to the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at a given temperature. Relative humidity depends on temperature and the pressure of the system of interest. The same amount of water vapor results in higher relative humidity in cool air than warm air. A related parameter is the dew point.
