suppose a population is carrying a condition controlled by two alleles a dominant and a recessive only homozygous individuals th

at have two copies of the recessive allele have the condition if the A allele has a frequency of 20% and the A allele had a frequency of 80% what percentage of the population would have the condition

Hi! :)

Make a = q, aa (homozygous recessive) = q^2,
A = p, AA (homozygous dominant) = p^2, and
2pq = heterozygous
This was derived from p + q = 1
Therefore all a in pop (q) = 20% = .20

And all A in pop (p) = 80% = .80
Since the disease is homozygous recessive (affected), then aa = qq or q×q = q^2
q^2 = (.20)^2 = .040 = 4%

Answer: 4%

<h2>ANSWER:</h2>

\huge\boxed{Negative Feedback}

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>TYPES OF MECHANISMS</h2>

There are two types of mechanisms

<h3>Negative Feedback Mechanism:</h3>

This mechanism opposes the change that occurs in the body resulting in the decrease of the CHANGE.

<h3>Positive Feedback Mechanism:</h3>

This mechanism enhances the change that occurs in the body resulting in the increase of the CHANGE.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>THERMOREGULATION</h2>

Thermoregulation is the control of body temperature

<h3>__________________________________________________</h3><h3>Decrease in temperature </h3>

This picture is the mechanism for the THERMOREGULATION (control of the body temperature). It is the negative feedback, as you can see if the temperature is decreased that means the change occurs, so the process of shivering starts which is the movement of muscles which generates the heat resulting in the increase in temperature.

CHANGE: Less Temperature i.e. body cold.

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK: Increases temperature and brings it back to normal.

<h3>__________________________________________________</h3><h3>Increase in temperature </h3>

When the Temperature of the body increases, that means when the change occurs, The Negative feedback mechanism is triggered resulting in the process of sweating which brings the body temperature down.

CHANGE: More Temperature i.e. Body hot

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK: Decreases the temperature by the process of sweating and brings it back to normal.
