Its D, because i had this problem on a test, and of course i figured out the answer the hard way... lol
C. Law of segregation is the Mendel's law that states that gametes carry one allele for each trait.
Answer:
Yes.
Explanation:
Cystic Fibrosis is a recessive disease. It could most likely skip several generations. If the two people have the disease then were to have children, each child has a 25% chance of being born with the disease.
Answer:
The fraction of heterozygous individuals in the population is 32/100 that equals 0.32 which is the genotipic proportion for these endividuals.
Explanation:
According to Hardy-Weinberg, the allelic frequencies in a locus are represented as p and q, referring to the alleles. The genotypic frequencies after one generation are p² (Homozygous for allele p), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous for the allele q). Populations in H-W equilibrium will get the same allelic frequencies generation after generation. The sum of these allelic frequencies equals 1, this is p + q = 1.
In the exposed example, the r-6 allelic frequency is 0,2. This means that if r-6=0.2, then the other allele frequency (R) is=0.8, and the sum of both the allelic frequencies equals one. This is:
p + q = 1
r-6 + R = 1
0.2 + 0.8 = 1
Then, the genotypic proportion for the homozygous individuals RR is 0.8 ² = 0.64
The genotypic proportion for the homozygous individuals r-6r-6 is 0.2² = 0.04
And the genotypic proportion for heterozygous individuals Rr-6 is 2xRxr-6 = 2 x 0.8 x 0.2 = 0.32
Answer:
false, first
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Plants do not create energy, but rather they harness it from the sun. They convert the light energy in the photons of sunlight into chemical energy in the bonds of carbohydrates they make. We get energy from consuming plants when we acquire and break down these chemical bonds in carbohydrates of plants for our cellular processes.
