The number of producers is greater then the number of consumers , primary consumers is greater then the number of secondary consumers and the secondary consumers is greater then the number of tertiary consumer
The answer is A. 0.54.
In a population p+q=1 (we have 2 alleles only).
The question states that 0.21 of the population(21%) have short legs meaning they are q^2.
So q=rad0.21=0.4582.
And p=1-q=0.5417.
Answer:
a. Heterozygous individuals may pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to offspring.
Explanation:
Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease ---- Let say the recessive lethal diseases is s
∴ it only results when an individual posses two copies of the diseases-causing allele i.e two copies of the disease will be ss.
Now, when two hetrozygous individuals crossed , it is obvious that each can pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring.
Let show an illustration for the above statement.
Let the heterozygous individual be Ts, if Ts cross with another Ts;
we will have:
Ts × Ts
T s
T TT Ts
s Ts ss
the offspring are TT,Ts,Ts,ss
We can now see how the Heterozygous individuals pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring (Ts).
