The frequency of a lethal allele in a population is greatest when it is: Group of answer choices dominant manifested in infancy
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

recessive

Explanation:

A lethal allele is a gene variant associated with a mutation in an essential gene, which has the potential to cause the death of an individual. In general, lethal genes are recessive because these alleles do not cause death in heterozygous individuals, which have one copy of the normal allele and one copy of the allele for the lethal disease/disorder. In recessive lethal diseases, heterozygous individuals are carriers of the recessive lethal allele and can eventually pass the 'defective' allele on to offspring even though they are unaffected; whereas dominant lethal diseases are caused by dominant lethal alleles, which only need to be present in one copy to be fatal. In consequence, the frequency of recessive lethal alleles is generally higher than dominant lethal alleles because they can be masked in carrier individuals. Some examples of human diseases caused by recessive lethal alleles include, among others, Tay-Sachs disease, sickle-cell anemia, and cystic fibrosis.

What would most likely happen to plants if they did not have a waxy outer coating?
9966 [12]
They would dehydrate too rapidly and die. Plants (well, plants with true vascular systems) need to have water to dehydrate from the leaves to help draw the water up from the soil. This is transpiration, but without the waxy cuticle this would occur at an excessive rate, killing the plant.

If everyone on the planet used the same amount of resources as an average American, what percent of the Earth would
matrenka [14]

Answer:

D. 200%

Explanation:

While Americans constitute the 5% of the world population, they use around the 24% of the world's energy.

Then, if the 100% of the population were like the Americans, we have:

5%*x = 100%

x = 100%/5% = 20

the whole population is 20 times the population of the US, then the total energy used is 20 times the energy used in the US.

Then the energy that the 100% of the population would use is equal to:

20*24% = 480%

So we actually would need like 5 Earths.

The option is 200%
