Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC), also known as phenylthiourea (PTU), has the unusual property that it either tastes very bitter or is

virtually tasteless, depending on the genetic makeup
of the taster. There is a single gene which codes for a protein found in our tongues. PTC will bind with the protein if it present and a person will taste it. If the protein is not present,
PTC will not bind and a person cannot taste it. The ability to taste PTC is often treated as a dominant genetic trait. The dominant allele, T, causes a person to be able to taste PTC, and the recessive allele is represented as t. Assume that a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and 16 individuals out of 100 are unable to taste PTC.
What are the allele
frequencies of T and t in this population?

A. The allele frequency of T is 0.80, and the allele frequency of t is 0.20
B. The allele frequency of T is 0.84, and the allele frequency of tis 0.16.
C. The allele frequency of T is 0.00, and the allele frequency of t is 0.40
D. The allele frequency of T is 0.50, and the allele frequency of t is 0.50.

alukav5142 [94]

The intermediate disturbance hypothesis predicts that species diversity will be highest  when the frequency and/or intensity of disturbances are intermediate

Explanation:

The diversity of the species is maximised at an intermediate near of anthropogenic as well as natural disturbances. As the competitively inferior disturbances are being tolerated for species disturbance and are termed to be dominant. Co exist of the sensitive species when the disturbance are either frequent or rare, which possess the reduced level of the disturbances. the productivity is predicted as very less due to competitive exclusion. As the disturbances increases productivity becomes less as most of them unable to sustain the regular destructive occurrence. So with the intermediate disturbances productivity is high as the rapid colonizers and dominant competitors are able to coexist.
