Answer:
a) The equation describes the relationship between p and q is p + q = 1 for allelic frequencies
b) The frequencies of alleles A1 in decimals is 0.7 and in percents is 70%.
The frequencies of alleles A2 in decimals is 0.3 and in percents is 30%.
Explanation:
According to Hardy-Weinberg, the allelic frequencies in a locus are represented as p and q, referring to the allelic dominant or recessive forms. The genotypic frequencies after one generation are p² (Homozygous dominant), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous recessive). Populations in H-W equilibrium will get the same allelic frequencies generation after generation. The sum of these allelic frequencies equals 1, this is p + q = 1.
In the same way, the sum of genotypic frequencies equals 1, this is
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Being
- p the dominant allelic frequency,
- q the recessive allelic frequency,
- p²the homozygous dominant genotypic frequency
- q² the homozygous recessive genotypic frequency
- 2pq the heterozygous genotypic frequency
In the exposed example,
- A1 codes for purple leaves, has a frequency of 0.7 and is dominant.
- A2 codes for white leaves, has a frequency of 0.3 and is recessive.
According to this equation: p + q = 1.
0.7 + 0.3 = 1
A1A1= p²= 0.7² = 0.49
A2A2= q² = 0.3² = 0.09
A1A2 = 2pq = 2 x 0.7 x 0.3 = 0.42
According to this equation: p² + 2pq + q² = 1
0.49 + 0.42 + 0.09 = 1
- The frequencies of alleles A1 in decimals is 0.7 and in percents is 70%.
- The frequencies of alleles A2 in decimals is 0.3 and in percents is 30%.
I am pretty sure its Detailed instructions correct me if I'm wrong hope this helps.
Answer:
Original sentence: When new information does not support a scientific theory, the theory may be revised or sometimes rejected.
New changed sentence: <em>When the results of the experiment do not support a hypothesis, the hypothesis must be revised or rejected to state a new scientific theory.</em>
Explanation:
The scientific theory is a conceptual framework used to explain facts or phenomena and to make predictions.
The theory is fundamental to science because it allows scientists to organize and understand observations.
The construction of a theory begins with a hypothesis. The scientist believes that a phenomenon occurs in a certain way, so he/she performs observations under the scientific method to prove that his/her hypothesis is valid or not valid. The systematization of the observations and the empirical data collected might derive from a scientific theory that explains the analyzed phenomenon.
A scientific theory is a knowledge that has been contrasted in several ways.
Answer:
1. Potassium
2. increasing towards zero
3. hyperpolarization
4. voltage-regulated Potassium
Explanation:
Membrane potential can be defined as the difference in electric charges inside and outside of a cell. The resting membrane potential (RMP) occurs when there is no net current across the membrane and therefore the cell is in a non-excited state. At the RMP, sodium ions (Na+) are more concentrated inside the extracellular fluid (ECF) than inside the intracellular fluid (ICF), while potassium ions (K+) are more concentrated inside the ICF. The diffusion of K+ outside the cell triggers its hyperpolarization, by becoming the membrane potential more negative compared to the resting potential. As the potential nears +35 mV, the voltage-regulated potassium channels are open, thereby K+ ions leave the cell down its concentration gradient, while voltage-gated Na+ channels become saturated and inactivate.
