The one electron in its valence shell would most likely be  donated to form a positively charged ion.

<h3>What is potassium?</h3>

Potassium is an element of group one. This element is univalent and has a valency of one. This implies that the outermost shell of the potassium atom is composed of only one electron.

Thus,  the one electron in its valence shell would most likely be  donated to form a positively charged ion.

Dovator [93]

Answer;

A density-independent limiting factor

Explanation;

-A density-independent factor is any factor limiting the size of a population whose effect is not dependent on the number of individuals in the population.

-These factors can affect a population irrespective of its density. For example: natural disasters, temperature, sunlight, human activities, physical characteristics and behaviors of organisms affect any and all populations regardless of their densities.

You have a population of 1000 people, and you are looking at the population genetics of a blood marker that has two alleles. The
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Genotypic frequency (How often the allele combination shows YY, Yy or yy)

YY - 490/1000 = 0.49

Yy - 420/1000 = 0.42

yy - 90/1000 = 0.09

Allelic frequency (How often the allele shows Y or y)

P = Frequency of Y = (490+420)/1000 = 0.91

q = Frequency of Y =(420+90)/1000 = 0.51

The population isn't in equilibrium according to Hardy-Weinberg because p + q is more than one.

Hardy-Weinberg equation is p+q =1

P^2 +2pq + q^2 = 1

The Hardy-Weinberg assumption the population violated is that there is gene flow as seen in the Allelic frequency that is more than 1

Explanation:

When a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a gene, it is not evolving, and allele frequencies will stay the same across generations.

There are five basic Hardy-Weinberg assumptions: no mutation, random mating, no gene flow, infinite population size, and no selection.

If the assumptions are not met for a gene, the population may evolve for that gene (the gene's allele frequencies may change).
