Which virus transmission rate is calculated in this study

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the temperature difference between deep cool ocean water and warm tropical surface waters to produce electricity. Quantities of cold water that can be used for air conditioning is produced as a by-product.

How does an r group determine if an amino acid is acidic basic or nonpolar?

Alinara [238K]

R group (or side chain) is an organic component of amino acids that is unique to each amino acid. Three of the amino acids have basic side chains at neutral pH: arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), and histidine (His). Their side chains contain nitrogen and resemble ammonia, which is a base and their pKa's are high enough that they tend to bind protons, (positive charge). Aspartic acid or aspartate (Asp) and glutamic acid or glutamate (Glu) are acidic amino acids because their side chains have carboxylic acid groups whose pKa's are low enough to lose protons, (negatively charged). The non-polar amino acids contain uncharged functional groups at physiological pH and are incapable of participating in hydrogen bonding.

Considering the same population of cats as in Part A, what is the expected frequency of each genotype (TLTL, TLTS, TSTS ) based

zaharov [31]

Answer:

P = f(TLTL) = 0,16

H = f(TLTS) = 0,48

Q = f(TSTS) = 0,36

Explanation:

Hello!

The allele proportion of any locus defines the genetic constitution of a population. Its sum is 1 and its values can vary between 0 (absent allele) and 1 (fixed allele).

The calculation of allelic frequencies of a population is made taking into account that homozygotes have two identical alleles and heterozygotes have two different alleles.

In this case, let's say:

f(TL) = p

f(TS) = q

p + q = 1

Considering the genotypes TLTL, TLTS, TSTS, and the allele frequencies:

TL= 0,4

TS= 0,6

Genotypic frequency is the relative proportion of genotypes in a population for the locus in question, that is, the number of times the genotype appears in a population.

P = f(TLTL)

H = f(TLTS)

Q = f(TSTS)

Also P + H + Q = 1

And using the equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the genotypic frequencies of equilibrium are given by the development of the binomial:

$p^{2} = f(TLTL)$

$2pq = f(TSTL)$

$q^{2} = f(TSTS)$

So, if the population is in balance:

$P = p^{2}$

$H = 2pq$

$Q = q^{2}$

Replacing the given values of allele frecuencies in each equiation you can calculate the expected frequency of each genotype for the next generation as:

$f(TLTL) = P = p^{2} = 0,4^{2} = 0,16$

$f(TLTS) = H = 2pq = 2*0,4*0,6 = 0,48$

$f(TSTS) = Q = q^{2} = 0,6^{2} = 0,36$

I hope you have a SUPER day!
