In a certain population of rabbits, the allele for brown fur

Biology
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]1 year ago
5 0

The allele frequency for the recessive allele is B. 0.10. Thus, option "B" is correct.

<h3>How, explain your answer?</h3>

The Hardy-Weinburg equation is p + q = 1, or p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1, where p is dominant and q is recessive.

If 10 out of 100 rabbits have white fur, 10% of the rabbits have white fur. Therefore, 90% of the rabbits have brown fur, which can be substituted into the first equation to becoming 0.9 + 0.1 = 1. Now that we know what p and q equal, we can solve the rest of the equation.

0.9^2 = 0.81

0.9 * 0.1 * 2 = 0.18

0.1^2 = 0.01

Therefore, the allele frequency of the recessive allele is 0.1.

What happens to the z lines after contraction of the sarcomere?
ELEN [110]

When skeletal muscles contracts the Z lines that are at the end of every sarcomere became closer to each other due to the fact that the I bands that are attached to the Z lines and contains the myosin filaments move closer to each other interacting with the actin filaments and shorten the the H zone that is in the middle of the sarcomere. In other words, It all becomes compact during a contraction.

How long is a rat's large intestine and small intestine in cm? and why is one bigger than the other?
Nitella [24]

Answer;

The large intestine is much wider than the small intestine, but it is also much shorter. The small intestine is the longest part of the digestive system.


Explanation;

The small intestine is a muscular tube with three parts; the duodenum breaks down the food, the jejunum and the ileum absorb nutrients and send them into the bloodstream.

The reason why the small intestine is longer than the large intestine and any other part of the digestive system is to ensure maximum and complete absorption of nutrients to the blood stream.
