Researchers studying a small milkweed population note that some plants produce a toxin and other plants do not. They identify th

e gene responsible for toxin production. The dominant allele (T) codes for an enzyme that makes the toxin, and the recessive allele (t) codes for a nonfunctional enzyme that cannot produce the toxin. Heterozygotes produce an intermediate amount of toxin. The genotypes of all individuals in the population are determined (TT = 0.56; Tt = 0.28; tt = 0.16) and used to determine the actual allele frequencies in the population. Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Calculate the T and t.
I already know the answer is "No, there are more homozygotes than expected", but I do not understand how to find this answer. SHOW WORK.

Answer:

when doing this dont square p or q b/c (p^2) represents homozygous frequency already same thing for q and 2pq (dont need to multiply by 2)

also to do p + q = 1

take the square root of the genotype frequencies THEN add them, if greater than one does not meet equlibrium b/c more HOMOZYGOTES than expected

as in this case

No; there are more homozygotes than expected.

What must happen to water in order for its dissolved minerals to be deposited?¿
Nitella [24]

Explanation:

The water must be cooled. Cooling water means the kinetic energy of the water molecule is reduced. Bombardment with the solute molecules reduces. In addition, The inter-molecular spaces between the water molecules reduce and therefore the number of solutes that can be accommodated in the inter-molecular spaces reduces. This is how saturation point is reached. Therefore as you coll the solution, the solute molecule precipitate from the water.

Before a cell can divide, it must copy one ___ at a time in a process called DNA replication
Mkey [24]

Before a cell can divide, it must copy one NUCLEOTIDE at a time in a process called DNA replication.

DNA replication is the process by which two identical DNA molecules are formed from one single, original DNA parent molecule. DNA replication takes place in all living organisms and is the basis for inheritance. During this process, the DNA make a copy of itself by copying all the nucleotide that are present in it.
