When heterozygous advantage exists, how would you describe the fitness of the heterozygous genotype?

Arisa [49]2 years ago

When heterozygous advantage exists, the fitness of the heterozygous genotype has higher fitness than either homozygote.

<h3>What are genotypes and phenotypes ?</h3>

A person's genotype is made up of all the alleles they have for a certain gene. The sum of a person's attributes or observable characteristics is their phenotype. The phenotype of an organism is only impacted by its genotype, which is directly inherited from its parents.

<h3>Types of genotype :</h3>

There are three different genotype types: homozygous dominant (PP), homozygous recessive (PP), and heterozygous (Pp). The traits are the same in homozygous dominant and heterozygous genotypes.

<h3>Heterozygous</h3>

The existence of two unique alleles at a specific gene locus. One normal allele, one mutant allele, or two separate mutant alleles may be present in a heterozygous genotype.

<h3>Homozygous </h3>

Contrary to a heterozygous genotype, a homozygous genotype exists. You inherited two copies of the same allele if you have a gene called homozygosity. In other words, both of your biological parents contributed the same variations.

A large gradient for sodium exists across a cell membrane. Channels are opened and sodium diffuses freely through the channels.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Once the sodium channels opens and sodium is allowed to diffuse freely in and out of the cell, this will cause a large change in entropy and enthalpy. Values for both these quantities will increase significantly, however, the change in free energy will be small when we compare the open and closed state of the sodium channel. With regards to the stability of the system, it will reach equilibrium because the concentration of sodium ions is being allowed to diffuse without any regulation.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

hodyreva [135]

<u>Answer</u>:

There are a number of lipids that are found in foods and contribute to various functions in the body. Triglycerides are the most common lipid found in food and in the body; they consist of a <u><em>Glycerol</em></u><u> </u>backbone attached to three fatty acids.

Fatty acids are classified based on the degree to which the carbon chain is saturated with <u><em>Hydrogen</em></u>

A fatty acid is <u><em>saturated </em></u>if it contains no carbon-carbon double bonds,   <em><u>polyunsaturated </u></em>if it contains  two or more carbon-carbon double bonds, and<em><u> monounsaturated </u></em>if it has only one carbon-carbon double bond.

The unsaturated fatty acids can exist in one of two structural forms: the <em><u>trans </u></em>form occurs when hydrogens on both carbons forming the double bond lie on opposite sides of that bond.

When hydrogens on an unsaturated fatty acid lie on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond, a <u><em>cis </em></u>formation exists.
