(will give brainiest if right) Peppered moths are dark colored when they carry the dominant (D) allele and light colored when th

ey are homozygous for the recessive (d) allele. A population of peppered moths was determined to produce eggs and sperm with the following allele frequencies: 0.15 (D) and 0.85 (d).
What are the genotype frequencies in the offspring of this population? Assume the conditions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium apply.

A. DD = 0.0625; Dd = 0.375; dd = 0.5625
B. DD = 0.375; Dd = 0.0625; dd = 0.5625
C. DD = 0.25; Dd = 0.50; dd = 0.25
D. DD = 0.0225; Dd = 0.255; dd = 0.7225

D. DD = 0.0225; Dd = 0.1275; dd = 0.7225

The value of Dd is different in question.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Dark colored = DD, Dd

light colored = dd

Frequency of allele D = 0.15

Frequency of allele d = 0.85

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is applied.

DD = 0.15 X 0.15 = 0.0225

Dd = 0.15 X 0.85 = 0.1275

dd = 0.85 X 0.85 = 0.7225

Therefore, DD = 0.0225; Dd = 0.1275; dd = 0.7225

What is the name of the process where a material that is weak enough to flow will rises when it is hot and sinks when it is cool
aksik [14]

Answer:

Convection process

Explanation:

The process of convection is commonly takes place in the mantle portion of the earth and also at the atmosphere.

This process is usually defined as the process where the materials are heated at a high temperature, thereby making them less denser, and due to their low density they are gradually pushed upward into the upper zones. As the materials rises up, the density gradually increases due to the lowering of the temperature, and then the materials again sinks. This give rise to the formations of a circulating cell, which are commonly known as the convection cells.

he discipline of microbiology is intimately associated with biochemistry and genetics, because cells are both biochemical cataly
Archy [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

<u>The discipline of microbiology has to do with the study of microorganisms - tiny organisms that cannot be seen with the ordinary eyes except with the microscope.</u>

<em>Within the cells of microorganisms just as in every other cell, various biochemical processes take place in order to ensure the continued viability of the cells. Genetic information are also passed on from parent to daughter cells during the process of reproduction or cell division.</em>

Hence, the field of microbiology is associated with both biochemistry and genetics.
