A.
The genotype frequencies can be determined by dividing the number of individuals with a genotype by the total number all the individuals. 
FF genotype frequency:
98÷200=0,49. There are approximately 5 <span>homozygous dominant mice in 10.
Ff genotype frequency:
84</span>÷200=0,42. There are approximately 4 <span>heterozygous mice in 10.
ff genotype frequency:
18</span>÷200=0,09. There are approximately 1 <span>homozygous recessive mouse in 10.

B.
To determine the frequency of an allele we can divide the number of times that the allele appears by the total number of alleles.
F allele frequency:
</span>\frac{(98*2)+84}{400}<span>=0.7
There are 7 F alleles in 10 random alleles.
f </span>allele frequency:
\frac{84+(18*2)}{400}=0.3
There are 3 f alleles in 10 random alleles.<span>
</span>

Will heterozygous genotypes have the same phenotypes as homozygous dominant alleles?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

For a gene that is expressed in a dominant and recessive pattern, homozygous dominant and heterozygous organisms will look identical (that is, they will have different genotypes but the same phenotype), and the recessive allele will only be observed in homozygous recessive individuals.

Which structure or organelle is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? A) ribosomes B) chloroplasts C) mitochondria D)
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The correct answer would be A) ribosomes.

A ribosome is a vesicular structure present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They consist of ribosomal RNA and associated proteins.

They are the site of translation in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

They are made up two units which are called large sub-unit and small sub-unit.

In prokaryotic cells, 70S ribosomes are present which are made up of 50S large sub-units and 30S small sub-units.

In eukaryotic cells, 80S ribosomes are present which are made up of 60S large sub-units and 40S small sun-units.

What happens when light waves passes through glasses
Andreyy89
Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. Light is refracted when it crosses the interface from air into glass in which it moves more slowly. Since the light speed changes at the interface, the wavelength of the light must change, too. The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction. We illustrate this concept in Figure 3 by representing incident light as parallel waves with a uniform wavelength . As the light enters the glass the wavelength changes to a smaller value '. Wave "a" passes the air/glass interface and slows down before b, c, or d arrive at the interface. The break in the wave-front intersecting the interface occurs when waves "a" and "b" have entered the glass, slowed down and changed direction. At the next wave-front in the glass, all four waves are now traveling with the same velocity and wavelength
