What is homozygous dominant

Biology

The organism carries two copies of the same dominant allele. We normally indicate it by two capital letters: PP

Homozygous recessive would be two copies of the same recessive allele - which we normally indicate by small letters: pp

Heterozygous would be one copy of each: Pp

It involves punnet inherited traits and punnet squares
an example of homozygous dominant would be AA
an example of heterozygous would be Aa
an example of homozygous reccesive would be aa
when an organism is homozygous dominant for a certain trait it means that they can only pass down the dominant trait to their offspring and their offspring will display the dominant trait

What type of bonds do water molecules form with each other?
Ray Of Light [21]

Water molecules have covalent bonds. Each molecule consists of two hydrogen and oxygen covalent bonds. However, when water molecules are placed together, as they are normally, the hydrogen atoms in each molecule can form hydrogen bonds with the oxygen atom of other molecules.

A population of 150 individuals has an allele frequency of 0.2 for the dominant allele (H) and a frequency of 0.8 for the recess
Amanda [17]
Hardy-Weinberg Equation (HW) states that following certain biological tenets or requirements, the total frequency of all homozygous dominant alleles (p) and the total frequency of all homozygous recessive alleles (q) for a gene, account for the total # of alleles for that gene in that HW population, which is 100% or 1.00 as a decimel. So in short: p + q = 1, and additionally (p+q)^2 = 1^2, or 1
So (p+q)(p+q) algebraically works out to p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1, where p^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous dominant individuals, 2pq = genotype frequency of heterozygous individuals, and q^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous recessive individuals.
The problem states that Ptotal = 150 individuals, H frequency (p) = 0.2, and h frequency (q) = 0.8.
So homozygous dominant individuals (HH) = p^2 = (0.2)^2 = 0.04 or 4% of 150 --> 6 people
Heterozygous individuals (Hh) = 2pq = 2(0.2)(0.8) = 0.32 or 32% of 150
--> 48 people
And homozygous recessive individuals (hh) = q^2 = (0.8)^2 = 0.64 = 64% of 150 --> 96 people
Hope that helps you to understand how to solve these types of population genetics problems!

1c) If the amino acid sequences in the proteins of 2 organisms are similar, why will their DNA also be similar?
Trava [24]

Answer and Explanation:

Because the DNA sequence determines a protein's amino acid sequence, a gene shared by two closely related organisms should have similar, or even identical, amino acid sequences. That's because closely related species most likely diverged from one another fairly recently in the evolutionary span. Thus, they haven't had as much time to accumulate random mutations in their genetic codes.
