The answer is FALSE. A lipid is what consists of glycerol and 3 fatty acids. Waxes are organic compounds that characteristically consist of long alkyl chains. They may also include various functional groups such as fatty acids, aromatics, amides, ketones, and aldehydes. Synthetic waxes are often long-chain hydrocarbons (alkanes or paraffin) that lack functional groups.

For this question, we will utilize a population of Martians that is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium. The dominant Martian phenotyp
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

d.0.48

Explanation:

When a population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium the <u>genotypic </u>frequencies are:

freq (AA) = p²

freq (Aa) = 2pq

freq (aa) = q²

<em>p</em> is the frequency of the dominant <em>A</em> allele and <em>q</em> is the frequency of the recessive <em>a</em> allele.

In this population of 100 individuals, 84 martians have the dominant phenotype and 16 have the recessive phenotype.

Therefore:

q²=16/100

q² = 0.16

q=√0.16

q = 0.4

And p+q=1, so:

p = 1 - q

p = 1-0.4

p = 0.6

The frequency of heterozygotes is:

freq (Aa) = 2pq = 2 × 0.4 × 0.6

freq (Aa) = 0.48
