In a particular species of frogs, black spots are a dominant trait and their absence is a recessive trait. In a population of fr

ogs, 50 are homozygous for the dominant trait, 34 are heterozygous dominant, and 16 show the recessive trait. Which expression is the correct way to calculate the frequency of the dominant allele?
A. 50/100

B. 84/100

C. 50/200

D. 134/200

E. 100/200

The expression which is the correct way to calculate the frequency of the dominant allele is 134/200. Thus, the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Allelic frequency?</h3>

The allelic frequency may be defined as the sum total of all the alleles of a gene in a population. It represents the overall genetic diversity within a population.

The allelic frequency is calculated by the formula when the genotypes are given in number. It is as follows:

2 × Number of Purebred dominant + Number of heterozygous/ 2× Total number of individuals in a population.

∴ Allelic frequency of dominant allele = 2 × 50 + 34/ 2× 100 = 134/200 = 0.67.

The allelic frequency of the Dominant allele is 0.67 while the allelic frequency of the recessive allele is 0.33.

Therefore, it is well described above.

What causes oxygen to leave the capillary on arterial side
Klio2033 [76]
The same time, carbon dioxide that is dissolved in the blood comes out of the capillaries back into the air sacs, ready to be breathed out. Blood with fresh oxygen is carried from your lungs to the left side of your heart, which pumps blood around your body through the arteries.

Consider organisms that are eukaryotic, are found in both unicellular and multicellular forms, may resemble plants but are not p
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is fungi.

Explanation:

Fungi are the eukaryotic organism but they can be present in unicellular and multicellular form. They are different from plant, animals, and bacteria. They are heterotrophic organisms and do not conduct photosynthesis. Their cell wall is made up of chitin.  

Most of the fungi are saprophytes which means they take their nutrition from the dead and decaying organism. So fungi play an important role in clearing the waste organic material from the environment so they help in bioremediation. All members of fungi comes under a separate kingdom fungi.

Which of the following cell parts produces energy for the cell and has its own DNA?
nadezda [96]

Answer: Mitochondria

Explanation:

The Mitochondria.

The mitochondria produces energy for the cell to use by converting chemical energy from food into a form of energy in which is usable to the host cell through a process of oxidative phosphorylation

Although DNA is mainly packaged within chromosones confined in the nucleus, mitochondria also has a small quantity of unique DNA found within them called mitochondrial DNA. DNA found within the mitochondria differs from DNA found within the nucleus in the sense that it can self replicate.

An analysis of chromosomes in a culture containing mutated cells may show the loss of one or more bases making up the chromosome
ankoles [38]

The answer is; deletion mutation


This type of mutation mostly causes a phenomenon called frameshift mutation whereby the 3-codon sequence reading frame is shifted causing the amino acids translated, downstream of the deletion site, to be altered. This can gravely affect the function of the translated proteins and result in genetic disease.
