According to the hardy-weinberg principle, if 75% of the alleles in the gene pool are a1 and 25% are a2, what is the proportion

Frequency of allele a1 is 75%, p=0.75
Frequency of allele a2 is 25%, q=0.25
 If a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium then:
p2+2pq+q2=1
<span>p2  is the frequency of genotype a1a1 (homozygous),</span>
2pq is the frequency of genotype a1a2 (heterozygous),
q2 is the frequency of genotype a2a2
<span>The proportion of individuals with genotype a1a2 is then 2*0.75*0.25=0.375 (37.5%).</span>

How do temperatures and ph affect enzymes
avanturin [10]

Answer:At low temperatures, an increase in temperature increases the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. At higher temperatures, the protein is denatured, and the rate of the reaction dramatically decreases.

Explanation:Temperature Effects. Like most chemical reactions, the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction increases as the temperature is raised.

Why is it ineffective to treat viral disease with antibiotics? Why is it ineffective to treat viral disease with antibiotics? Pa
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Antibiotics inhibit enzymes specific to bacteria and have no effect on virally encoded enzymes

Explanation:

The specificity of the antibiotics to inhibits some  bacterial enzymes is one of the major reasons why antibiotic do not affect viruses.In addition  antibiotics are designed to  have a significant  destructive  effects on  the mechanisms of biochemical reactions in bacteria and its  physiology, e,g on the cells walls,( inhibiting the formation of peptydoglycans) on certain organelles e,g ribisomes (inhibiting protein synthesis) and on the DNA(disrupting replication). The virus physiology is different from bacteria, therefore the design of antibiotics will nor affect these same mechanisms in viruses, thus no specificity for the antibiotic to act on in virus

For a circular or square patch of habitat, the ratio of edge habitat to interior habitat __________ as the size of the patch dec
kompoz [17]

Answer:

increases

Explanation:

Habitat is defined as a particular environment where a group of organisms normally lives. Some examples of habitat include, among others, forests, deserts, lakes, grasslands, etc. Moreover, an edge habitat refers to a habitat area that is in contact with another. This part of the habitat has ecological importance because it is used by many species in order to find food, refuge and rest. In the question above, it is expected that a greater number of smaller habitats increase edge habitat surface area when compared to the interior habitat area. The ratio between the edge habitat surface area and total habitat area may have a huge impact on entire ecosystems.
