Answer:
0.0177
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease, thereby an individual must have both copies of the CFTR mutant alleles to have this disease. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium states that p² + 2pq + q² = 1, where p² represents the frequency of the homo-zygous dominant genotype (normal phenotype), q² represents the frequency of the homo-zygous recessive genotype (cystic fibrosis phenotype), and 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype (individuals that carry one copy of the CFTR mutant allele). Moreover, under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the sum of the dominant 'p' allele frequency and the recessive 'q' allele frequency is equal to 1. In this case, we can observe that the frequency of the homo-zygous recessive condition for cystic fibrosis (q²) is 1/3200. In consequence, the frequency of the recessive allele for cystic fibrosis can be calculated as follows:
1/3200 = q² (have two CFTR mutant alleles) >>
q = √ (1/3200) = 1/56.57 >>
- Frequency of the CFTR allele q = 1/56.57 = 0.0177
- Frequency of the dominant 'normal' allele p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.0177 = 0.9823
Answer:
Renewable Energy Resources.
Explanation:
Unlike fossil fuels which cannot be recovered when destroyed, these sources of energy can be recovered by a means of recycling . Recycling here reduces solid wastes which is one of the causes of land pollution.
Hydroelectric schemes can only be built in mountain regions where rainfall and rivers are plentiful which involves upset of aquatic ecosystem. This poses a dangerous pollution problem though.
Wind generators and solar panels are not very efficient energy producers. However, future schemes for producing solar energy via solar satellites are promising.

The purines are ribose and deoxyribose
I am pretty sure that if muscle cells failed to function properly the thing that would happen is being revealed by the first option : A. The muscles will not work. I choose this one because as you know muscles are made of muscle tissue and if cells fail it won't functionate at all.
