Answer:

__________________________

The 20 amino acids that are found within proteins convey a vast array of chemical versatility. The precise amino acid content, and the sequence of those amino acids, of a specific protein, is determined by the sequence of the bases in the gene that encodes that protein. The chemical properties of the amino acids of proteins determine the biological activity of the protein.

Human albinism is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that you find a village in the Andes where 1/4 of the population is albi
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

500

Explanation:

According to the given information, the total number of albino people in the population= 1000/4 = 250.

Since albinism is an autosomal recessive trait, the genotype of albino people would be homozygous recessive. Therefore, the frequency of homozygous recessive genotype in the population (q2) = 250/1000= 0.25.

The frequency of recessive allele (q) = square root of 0.25 = 0.5

Since p+q=1. So, p (frequency of dominant allele) = 1-q = 1-0.5 = 0.5

Frequency of heterozygotes in the population= 2pq = 2 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.5 or 50%

Therefore, expected number of heterozygotes in the given population= 50% of 1000 = 500

Looking at the chemical reaction provided here, propose a different method that could be used to measure amylase activity: Starc
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Starch + H2O = maltose

This reaction gives the Starch and H2O as the reactants and Maltose as the product.

Amylase is an enzyme which helps in the digestion of Starch molecules and its activity can however be measured through careful monitoring of the disappearance of amylase substrate which is in this case, starch.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is

1. A rabbit living in  a desert has long ears  to disperse heat- abiotic factor.

2. A moth immediately  dives to the ground  when it hears a bat- biotic factor.

3. A lizard stays warm  by sunning itself  on a rock- abiotic factor.

4. A cactus has spines  instead of leaves  to help conserve water- abiotic factors.

5. A petunia is  bright red to  attract hummingbirds- biotic factor.

6. A stick-bug blends in  with trees to hide  from predators- biotic factor.

Explanation:-

The environment includes both abiotic and biotic factors which can affect the ecosystem. Living elements like plants and animals which affect ecosystem are known as biotic factors while the non-living elements which include air, water, temperature are called abiotic factors.

In the given question the options affected by the biotic factors due to bat, due to hummingbirds and due to predators.

Options affected by the abiotic factors due to heat and due to water.
