Make a = q, aa (homozygous recessive) = q^2,
A = p, AA (homozygous dominant) = p^2, and
2pq = heterozygous
This was derived from p+q = 1
Therefore all a in pop (q) = 20% = .20
And all A in pop (p) = 80% = .80
Since the disease is homozygous recessive (affected), then aa = qq or q×q = q^2
{q}^{2}  = {(.20)}^{2}  = .040 = 4\%
Therefore [B. 4%] is the correct answer.

Answer:

to remember

To make up my history

Explanation:

The word "striking" means something remarkable, memorable and that had a strong impact in a given situation. The narrator of the text uses this word to refer to remarkable, impacting, minutable and significant moments that happened in his life, to the point of "making my story" as he says. The sentence "make my story" is what reinforces the meaning of "striking" within this context.

Answer:

Even though she was frightened, she decided to walk in and check out what is on the inside. She carefully opened the door, and take a quick glance on the insides of the house.
