Allele frequency mean

Biology
1 answer:
podryga [215]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Allele frequency is a measure of the relative frequency of an allele on a genetic locus in a population. Usually it is expressed as a proportion or a percentage. In population genetics, allele frequencies show the genetic diversity of a species population or equivalently the richness of its gene pool.

Choose the answer that places the following events of protein synthesis in the proper order.
Fofino [41]

A) 3,5,1,6,2,4 is the correct order for the  events of protein synthesis.

<h3>What is protein synthesis?</h3>

Protein synthesis (translation) is the process of creating a polymer of an amino acid chain that results in the production of a functional protein. It entails reading information from mRNA (messenger RNA) and assembling an amino acid chain. Ribosomes are the structures responsible for protein chain synthesis.

Protein synthesis is an important process because we rely on our bodies to build the proteins we require to perform important functions. Without protein synthesis, our bodies will be unable to produce hormones, enzymes, and even new muscle.

DDT is an insecticide that was used extensively in the mid-1900s to kill mosquitoes. It was very effective at first, but after a
dlinn [17]

Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.

  • In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).

  • Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.

  • After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.

  • Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.

How does the uterus prepare itself to receive a fertilized egg?
frez [133]
The fertilized egg begins a rapid descent to the uterus. The period of rest in the tube appears to be necessary for full development of the fertilized egg and for the uterus to prepare to receive theegg. ... At the end of this transition period, the embryo becomes a mass of very organized cells, called a blastocyst.
