If the population is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, then the frequency of the recessive genes would be:
aa=0.16
a= √0.16= 0.4

Then, the frequency of dominant genes would be:
0.4+q=1
q= 1-0.4= 0.6

The frequency of <span>homozygous dominant genotype</span> would be:
qq= 0.6*0.6=0.36= 36%

In the peppered moth scenarios what is the variation? And the selection?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Variation is number of alleles for the wing color of the peppered moths. The wing color ranges from pure white to pure back.

Selection pressure is predation by birds.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, white-winged peppered moths had a large allelic frequency in the population compared to black-winged peppered moths. However, when the environment changed due to soot produced by industries (making the environment darker) white-winged peppered moths reduced while that of black moths increased.

This is because black moths were able to blend in and camouflage in the dark environment than white-winged peppered moths that stood out to their predators. Black moths, therefore, had an increased chance of reaching adulthood and passing their genes to the next generation. This increased the allelic frequency of black-winged peppered while that of white-winged moths reduced in the population.

If 10.0 mL of blood plasma has a mass of 10.279 g and contains 0.870 g of protein, what is the mass/mass percent concentration o
Maru [420]

Answer:

Mass/mass percent concentration means the mass of the solute/mass of the solution times 100. You know both the mass of the solute (0.870 g protein) and the mass of the solution (10.279 g solution). So divide and multiply your result by 100.  (0.870 / 10.279 * 100)
