locus is the best term to describe the position of gene in the chromosome. so locus is that place within the chromosome where information about a certain trait is stored. to some extent locus is interchangeable with the term gene. homologous chromosomes have identical genes in the same loci.

A plant has two alleles for color. the red allele is recessive and is represented by q. the purple allele is dominant, and repre
Nata [24]

Answer: B. 0.77

Explanation:

We should note that from the Hardy-Weinberg law, the formula used is:

p²+ 2pq+ q² = 1

From the information given,

p = purple allele

q = red allele

q² = 59/100 = 0.59

Then, the frequency of the red allele that is recessive will be:

q² = 0.59

q= √0.59

q = 0.768.

q = 0.77

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Under which type of change in the ecosystem ( fast change or slow change) would more organisms be able to survive and why?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

slow change

Explanation:

If the change is slow they have time to adapt. An example of a fast change is human deforestation. With their habitat suddenly removed, the organisms living there will have to find new shelter and food fast. It's likely that they'll not even be able to find anything to survive off of and die, because organisms tend to have very specific needs. For example, pandas would go extinct if bamboo was eradicated.

Freshwater fish would not be able to adapt if it was suddenly dropped into salt water. They would die. An example of a slow change would be the slow addition of salt to freshwater. Fish that are better able to survive within higher levels of salinity will be more likely to reproduce. Slowly through reproduction a new type of fish suited to salt water may be developed over several generations.
