Scientific information refers to the classification, collection, dissemination, and retrieval of recorded knowledge treated both as a pure and as an applied science. The two features of a scientific information source, which may suggest that the information is not reliable are:
1. The information is based on data that are not peer-reviewed, that is, the information has not been reviewed by the experts in the field, or is not encouraged by an accord of experts in the field.
2. The references are not cited, that is, it not clear or not known that from where the information originated.
Answer:
The correct answer is - 1/2
Explanation:
the ability to roll the tongue is dominant over those who can not roll the tongue. The man is Rr (man), heterozygous. The woman is recessive and can not roll
Rr (man) x rr (woman)---Parents
r
R Rr (roll)
r rr (cann't roll)
The probability of their children to able to roll = 1/2 = 50%
Answer:
Increased frequency of the allele for sickle cell anemia
Explanation:
Sickle cell anemia is fatal in homozygous genotype. The homozygous genotype having two copies of the allele for sickle cell anemia is not favored by natural selection due to its reduced survival success.
However, the heterozygous genotype for sickle cell anemia with one allele for the disease exhibit malaria resistant. The presence of one allele is not fatal for the organisms as the presence of one normal allele ensures the formation of some normal hemoglobin protein and RBCs to support the oxygen delivery to the body parts.
The increased survival success of heterozygous genotype in malaria-prone regions allowed their natural selection. This increased the frequency of allele for the sickle cell anemia in the gene pool of the local population and increased the frequency of heterozygous dominant genotype.
