In a population with two alleles, B and b, the allele frequency of B=0.59. What would be the frequency of the heterozygotes if t
Levart [38]

Answer:

0.483

Explanation:

The given population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. If the gene has two alleles, the sum total of the frequencies of these two alleles will be one.  

Therefore, the total of the frequency of allele B and frequency of allele b will be 1. f(B) + f(b)=1

If the frequency of allele "B" is 0.59, then the frequency of allele "b" will be=1-0.59= 0.41

The frequency of heterozygous genotype in the population= 2pq

p= frequency of the dominant allele

q= frequency of the recessive allele

So, 2pq= 2 x 0.59 x 0.41 = 0.483

During which phase of meiosis does each of the following events occur?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

(a) crossing over: Meiosis I, Recombination  

(b) chromatids separate at their centromeres and migrate to opposite poles: Meiosis II, Anaphase II

(c) chromosomes become aligned in pairs at the equator: Meiosis II, Metaphase II

Explanation:

Homologous recombination is a type of genetic recombination that occurs during meiosis (formation of ovum and sperm cells). The paired chromosomes of the male and female parents are aligned so that similar DNA sequences intersect. This crossing over produces an exchange of genetic material, which is an important cause of the genetic variability observed in the offspring.

Meiosis II: Anaphase II. The centromeres separate and the daughter chromatids - now individual chromosomes - move to the opposite poles of the cell. The centromeres separate, and the two chromatids of each chromosome move toward the opposite poles in the spindle.

Meiosis II: Metaphase II. Chromosomes are accommodated in the equatorial plate of metaphase, similar to what happens in mitosis. They are attached to the already fully formed meiotic spindle. Each chromosome is aligned in the equatorial plate of the metaphase, as it happens in mitosis.

What is this the definition of?<br><br> Reaction that disassembles polymers and absorbs water.
Monica [59]

Answer:

Hydrolysis reactions use water to breakdown polymers into monomers and is the opposite of dehydration synthesis, which forms water when synthesizing a polymer from monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.

What is multicellular organismss
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Multicellular organisms can be described as an organism which is made up of multiple cells. A unicellular organism is made up of only a single cell. Multicellular organisms are complex organisms as they are made up of more than one cell. Unicellular organisms are simple organisms as they constitute of only a single cell.

Examples of a multicellular organism include humans, elephants, bats, rats, cats etc.

Example of a unicellular organism is bacteria.
