Answer: 1/4 (4 out of 16 offsprings express one of the two dominant alleles)

Explanation:

The dominant alleles are A and B

At the end of the cross AaBb x AaBb, 16 offsprings would result. They are as follows: AABB, AABb, AaBB, AaBb

AABb, AAbb, AaBb, AABB,

AaBB, AaBb, aaBB, aaBb,

AaBb, Aabb, aaBb, aabb.

Of all, only 4 offsprings (aaBb, aaBB, AAbb, Aabb) expresses one of the A or B. so 4/16 = 1/4

What is one similarity between active and passive transport?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is both involve moving substance across the membrane.

Explanation:

Passive transport is one of the most important membrane transport process which helps in transport of polar molecules and gases along their concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.No addition energy is required to carry out passive transport because during passive transport molecules move from high concentration region to the region of low concentration.

Active transport is a specific type of membrane transport process which helps in the passage of ions against their concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.As the ions are moving against their concentration gradient additional chemical energy is required to carry out their uphill transport.

<h2>Mark and recapture method</h2>

Explanation:

Mark and recapture is a technique to measure the size of a population before fishing and hunting season;commonly used by fish and wildlife managers

  • It involves the marking of number of individuals in a natural population,returning them to that population followed by recapturing some of those as a basis for estimating the size of the population at the time of marking and release
  • Population size can be estimated as(N)=M*T/R

here,M=initially marked;T=total in sample second;R=marked recaptures

There are certain assumptions to this method

  • Population is assumed to be closed which means no new individuals were born or immigrated into the population and none died or emigrated from the population
  • The chance for each individual in the population to be caught are equal and constant for both the  initial marking period and the recapture period
  • One of the assumption of this method is that sufficient time must be given between the initial marking period and recapture period for all marked individuals but time period should not be very long
  • Animals do not lose their mark

The tags in the given question were estimated a year there is a chance that old marked tags population might have died or emigrated(the longer the time interval the greater the chance) and hence it becomes an "open" population which violates the first law

If proportion of population changes then marked recapture method formula won't turn out be applicable
