Answer:

P is the frequency of the dominant allele.

Explanation:

Allele is a variant of a gene, and the allele frequency is the proportion of this gene in a population. This frequency tells us how common is an allele in such population.

So, the frequency of the dominant allele represents the proportion of the dominant allele in the population.

<u>The letter p is used to denote the frequency of the dominant allele. </u>

Which hormone is responsible for changes at puberty, particularly the development of the secondary sex characteristics in girls?

AlekseyPX

The hormone responsible for secondary sex characteristics in females is estradiol. Also spelled oestradiol, it is one of three variations of the estrogen hormone found in a woman's body. It is a steroid hormone created by the body using cholesterol as a basic component. It is produced in the ovaries by granulose cells and is the predominant of the three estrogens for the majority of a woman's life.

Secondary sex characteristics are the physical characteristics caused by hormonal changes during puberty that are not directly related to reproduction despite being tangentially involved in the process. In women, this involves the growth of pubic hair, widening hips, breast development, and a change in the ratio of body fat to overall mass.
