I wrote a paragraph summing the importance of Carbon a while back, see if it helps find your answer. :)
Carbon is an element on the periodic table with the symbol C, and the atomic number 6. There are many reasons that carbon is vital to life on earth, not only to humans but to plants as well. First of all, humans are made of eighteen percent carbon. It is not only found in humans, it is also found in every organism currently known, including plants in a technological way. To plants, carbon flows inside of their cells. They need it to create glucose which then works as food. To humans, it's used in many science sets. It is used in a vast array of compounds including gasoline. Gasoline is what keeps motors around the world running, and it's made up of hydrocarbons with at least 5 carbon atoms each. It also aids the greenhouse effect, keeping the earth warm and habitable by human beings.
Assumptions:
1. Equilibrium has been reached for the allele proportions
2. Absence of <span>evolutionary influences such as </span>mate choice<span>, </span>mutation<span>, </span>selection<span>, </span>genetic drift<span>, </span>gene flow<span> and </span>meiotic drive<span>.

Defining L=long stem, l=short stem, and L is dominant over l.
f(x) = frequency of allele x (expressed as a fraction of population)
Then the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law applies:
p^2+2pq+q^2=1
where
f(LL)=p^2
f(Ll)=2pq
f(ll)=q^2
Given f(ll)=0.35=q^2, we have
q=sqrt(0.35)=0.591608
p=1-q=0.408392
=>
f(Ll)
=2pq
=2*0.408392*0.591608=0.483216
= proportion of heterozygous population
Answer: percentage of heterozygous population is 48.32%
Answer:
Both ferns and flowering plants produce spores at some point in their life cycles. True
Only ferns have a gametophyte as part of their life cycle. False.
Only flowering plants produce pollen grains. true
Both a tree and a large fern plant are diploid sporophytes. True
Explanation:
Yes, both ferns and flowering plants produce spores in their life cycles. In fern plant, it produce spores on the underside of the leaves whereas in flowering plant, there are two types of spores such as microspores and megaspores. Both ferns and flowering plants have gametophyte as part of their life cycle. Flowering plants produce pollen grains whereas non-flowering plants produce spores to continue their generation. Both tree and large fern plants having diploid sporophytes which is a necessary part of their life cycle.
Answer:
15. Cell 4 and Cell 7 will not be able to synthesize a major biological molecule. What molecule is this? Protein.
In recent molecular genetic studies, genes associated with the neurotransmitter Dopamine have been linked to ADHD.
ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. People with ADHD have a hard time focusing on tasks. Scientists have found that the low levels of dopamine in the brain are associated with the symptoms of ADHD. It is because the neurons in the brain have a high amount of protein called the dopamine transporters. These proteins block the dopamine from passing between the neurons. This decreases the effect of dopamine.
