Answer:

The correct answer would be:

  • Frequency of recessive allele (q) = 0.2 or 20 percent
  • Frequency of dominant allele (p) = 0.8 or 80 percent
  • The frequency of homozygous dominant individuals (p²) = 0.64 or 64 percent.
  • The frequency of homozygous recessive individuals (q²) = 0.04 or 4 percent.
  • Frequency of heterozygous dominant indivduals (2pq) = 0.32 or 32 percent.

It can be explained with the help of the Hardy-Weinberg equation:

p + q = 1

p² + q² + 2pq = 1

q² represent the frequency of individuals with homozygous recessive genotype. It can be calculated by dividing the number of individuals with homozygous recessive genotype with a total number of individuals in a population.

Thus, q² = \frac{64}{1600}

⇒\frac{4}{100} ⇒ 0.04

Hence, q = \sqrt{0.04} = 0.2

As we know p + q = 1

thus, p = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

Countercurrent multiplication involves A) ions leaving ascending limb to make water come out of the descending limb B) water lea
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Countercurrent multiplication is the process whereby energy is used to generate an osmotic gradient in which water is reabsorbed from the tubular fluid to produced concentrated urine.

Explanation:

Countercurrent multiplication moves sodium chloride from tubular fluid into interstitial space deep within the kidneys. The concurrent multiplication process build up osmotic gradient interstitial fluid in a single effect. Here, sodium chloride is driven by active transport out of the tubular fluid in the thick ascending limb into the interstitial fluid, which becomes hyperosmotic. This result to water moving passively down its concentration gradient out of the tubular fluid in the descending limb into the interstitial space to a point where it attains a state of equilibrium.

Therefore,the correct option is A, where the ions leaves the ascending limb to make water comes out of descending limb.

The motion permitted at a joint ranges from ____________ , such as where some skull bones interlock at a suture, to ____________
Elenna [48]
The correct answers are no movement; extensive movement.
You cannot move the joints near your skull - at least now willingly - only a doctor can remove parts of your skull if you are undergoing a brain surgery. Otherwise, there is no movement at all there. However, when it comes to your shoulders, for example, you can move them at will in whichever way you want to.
