Answer:
Ozone layer... pollution
Explanation:
The ozone layer is a layer in the atmosphere which provides a barrier between harmful UV rays and the Earth. However, pollution is quickly depleting the layer which in turn creates a higher risk of skin cancers and other conditions caused by harmful UV rays.
Hardy-Weinberg Equation (HW) states that following certain biological tenets or requirements, the total frequency of all homozygous dominant alleles (p) and the total frequency of all homozygous recessive alleles (q) for a gene, account for the total # of alleles for that gene in that HW population, which is 100% or 1.00 as a decimel. So in short: p + q = 1, and additionally (p+q)^2 = 1^2, or 1
So (p+q)(p+q) algebraically works out to p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1, where p^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous dominant individuals, 2pq = genotype frequency of heterozygous individuals, and q^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous recessive individuals.
The problem states that Ptotal = 150 individuals, H frequency (p) = 0.2, and h frequency (q) = 0.8.
So homozygous dominant individuals (HH) = p^2 = (0.2)^2 = 0.04 or 4% of 150 --> 6 people
Heterozygous individuals (Hh) = 2pq = 2(0.2)(0.8) = 0.32 or 32% of 150
--> 48 people
And homozygous recessive individuals (hh) = q^2 = (0.8)^2 = 0.64 = 64% of 150 --> 96 people
Hope that helps you to understand how to solve these types of population genetics problems!
Answer:
Lysosome
Explanation:
Freezer burn occurs due to the sublimation of ice in unprotected meat rich in muscles during long-frozen storage. It appears after thawing. The ice crystals rupture the lysosomes which in turn contain hydrolyzing enzymes.
Leakage of the hydrolytic lysosomal enzyme causes freezer burn and affects the appearance of the frozen meat. The hydrolytic enzymes of lysosomes partially digest the cells which in turn impart bad flavor to the stored food.
Hydropower can be harnessed from flowing and falling water. Water stored behind dams and at a height has a lot of potential energy which is converted into mechanical and electrical energy.This water is released gradually and is made to fall under the force of gravity and drive hydraulic turbines and electrical generators.
Hydropower is also another indirect form of using solar energy. Hydropower has great potential as a supplier of electricity but environmental constraints limit such a development as the generation of electricity by hydroelectric power plants result in pollution and massive ecological disruptions such as land flooding, siltation, eutrophication and adverse effects on flora and fauna.
Smaller dams and reservoirs cause less damage but cannot exploit the full potential of this energy resource. Planning environmental impact assessment and construction of a hydroelectric power plant takes many years and the high initial capital investments are also limiting factors in the development of hydropower.
The development cost of hydroelectric power plants can be reduced by developing low cost turbines and generators, involving public participation in the development and operation of the project and using efficient environmental friendly technologies.
Answer: Exhaled air containing Carbon dioxide bubbles react with water to form carbonic acid . The solution turn acidic and turn from green to yellow.
Explanation:
Exhaled carbondioxide bubbles reacts with water to form carbonic acid, the solution will turn acidic. Carbonic acid is a weak acid that decrease pH. An indicator of it shows that the solution turns from green to yellow.
Co2+ H2O= H2Co3.
The solution then dissociate to give H ion and hydrogen carbonates ion.
