In studying the gene pool of a population, you find that 21% of the population exhibits the recessive trait for eye color and th

e other 79% of the population exhibits the dominant trait. The dominant allele has complete dominance over the recessive allele. How would you use this information to solve for the frequency of the recessive allele?

In order to solve this problem we use these formula:
<span>p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1p + q = 1p = % dominant allele in the population
q = % recessive allele in the population
p2 = % homozygous dominant individuals
q2 = % homozygous recessive individuals
2pq = % heterozygous individualsFrom the given, we haveq2 = 21%Simply taking the square root,q = 4.58%</span>

How are hydrogen bonds related to polarity?
levacccp [35]
Polarity affects hydrogen bonding because hydrogen bonding occurs due to a bond being polar. One side of the bond will be slightly more negative because it's pulling more electrons towards itself and the other side of the bond will be more positive. Therefore the partially positive bond of one molecule will be attracted to the partially negative bond of another molecule. This is called an intermolecular force and hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular force.

Free palmitate is activated to it's coA derivative(palmitoyl-CoA) in the cytosol before it can be oxidized in the mitochondria.
n200080 [17]

Answer: hydrolysis of intermediate palmitoyl Co A ,with loss of labeled CoA.before reaching the matrix gives the answer

Explanation:

This is because when the labeled Coenzyme A of the Plamitate combines as Palmitoy-CoA with oxaloacetate to form intermediate (palmitoyl-CoA )in Citric Acid cycle:

CoA is hydrolysed with loss of the labelled CoA which returns to the cystosol. Therefore, the labelled CoA does not reach the matrix of the mitochondrial,but returns to the Cystosol.

Consequently, the CoA in the Cystosol will be labelled in palmitoylCoA and the one in the matrix of the liver mitochondrial will be non radioactive(,will not labelled).

A molecule that is important for cell functioning cannot diffuse through the plasma membrane, but needs a protein that can open
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Channel protein.

Explanation:

Channel protein have gate that opens and close which allow the passage of polar substance or ions to move to permeable membrane of the cell by diffusion. They are water filled and allow the movementof charged molecules inside and outside the cell membrane i.e polar molecules move through non polar bilayer of the cell membrane.
