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

yarga [219]
1. Structure such as the human tailbone or appendix that evolution has reduced in size because it is no longer used = d. vestigial structure

2. study of the similarities and differences in the structures of different species:
= g. comparative anatomy

3. structure that is similar in related organisms because it was inherited from a common ancestor: = c. homologous structure

4. study of the similarities and differences in the embryos of different species: study of the similarities and differences in the embryos of different species = j. comparative embryology

5. scientist who finds and studies fossils to learn about evolution and understand the past:
= i. paleontologist

6. mistaken idea of jean baptiste lamarck that evolution occurs through the inheritance of traits that an organism develops in its own lifetime: = h. inheritance of acquired characteristics

7. process by which a single species evolves into many new species to fill available niches:
= e. adaptive radiation

8. relative ability of an organism to survive and produce fertile offspring: = k. fitness

9. structure that is similar in unrelated organisms because it evolved to do the same job, not because it was inherited from a common ancestor: = f. analogous structure

10. study of how and why plants and animals live where they do: = a. biogeography

11. process in which organisms evolve traits useful to humans because people select which individuals are allowed to reproduce and pass on their genes to successive generations:
= b. artificial selection

Cual es el proceso molecular de las neuronas?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

un tipo de célula altamente especializada cuya principal característica es su incapacidad para reproducirse. Esto significa que el ser humano nace con una cantidad determinada de neuronas, las que, si bien no pueden duplicarse, han demostrado ser unidades muy plásticas y capaces de generar reacciones en situaciones bastante desfavorables.
