Let us assign the dominant allele (that of brown hair) letter R
while
We assign the recessive
allele (that of white hair) letter r
We then note down the
Hardy-Weinburg equation p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Brown fur population (p2
+ 2pq) = 64% = 0.64
White fur population (q2) = 36% = 0.36
Then we also remember that the frequencies of both allele
add up to 1 (p + q = 1);
Therefore q = ü.36
= 0.6
P = 1 – q = 1 – 0.6 = 0.4
The heterozygous population will be 2*0.6*0.4 = 0.48 = 48%
Homozygous domain population will therefore be (64% - 48%) =
16%
The ocean-floor feature is indicated by the arrow in the image and it is a seamount. A seamount is a submarine mountain and it is found on oceanic crust near mid-ocean. It is formed <span>by volcanic activity and the longest seamount would be the New England Seamounts.</span>
Answer: True
Explanation:
<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.
To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).
