You observe a population of three-toed frogs that lives in the cloud forests of Panama. In this population, you observe the foll

owing genotype counts at a locus controlling coloration: 411 (AA), 800 (Aa), and 911 (aa). This population is not at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE). For this population to be in HWE, what would the frequency of homozygous AA frogs have to be

Answer:

0.1460

Explanation:

Total population size= 411 + 911 + 800 = 2122

Let's assume that the population is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium.

Under these conditions, frequency of recessive allele (a)= 911 x 2 + 800 / 2122 x 2   = 2622/4244= 0.6178 .

This is because each homozygous recessive genotype has two copies of the recessive allele while each heterozygous dominant genotype has one copy of the recessive allele.  

For this population to be under Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium, frequency of dominant allele (A) = 1- 0.6178= 0.3822

Frequency of homozygous dominant genotype (AA) = 0.1460

alexdok [17]
Agonist/antagonist
 Agonist are drugs that bind and activate a receptor with effecting the response.If the effect results in maximum response it is considered as full agonist. However if the drug that binds to the receptor results only into partial efficacy in relation to the full activation of the receptor, this is considered as partial agonist.

Antagonist are drugs that blocks a biologic response of a hormone or another drug. They usually have affinity to the receptors but has no efficacy. This drug will just inhibit the activation of the receptors by the aganist.

a leaf cell has a very low concentration of salt. What would happen to a leaf cell if it were placed in a highly concentrated sa
Travka [436]

Answer:

When a leaf is placed in a solution whose salt concentration is higher than the salt concentration of the leaves, the water with in the leaves shall move out of the leaves due to the osmotic pressure gradient. This will cause the plant cell devoid of water thereby leading them to shrink and wilt.

Recall what you know about nervous tissue to answer the following questions. Nervous tissue can generate and conduct ____ signal
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Nervous tissue can generate and conduct <u>electrical</u> signals that control the body.

Explanation:

The neuron is the specialized cell that provides function to nerve tissue. Given the structure of the neuron, this cell is capable of creating and conducting information in the form of electrical impulses or signals, by depolarizing its cell membrane and generating action potentials.

The information generated and transmitted by the neurons allows the nervous system to obtain internal and external information of the organism, as well as to control all the body functions.

<em>     The other options are not true because nerve tissue does not generate or conduct </em><em>thermal </em><em>or</em><em> chemical </em><em>signals to perform its function.</em>
