Answer:

In a nutshell, cyanide prevents cells from using oxygen to make energy molecules. ... It acts as an irreversible enzyme inhibitor, preventing cytochrome C oxidase from doing its job, which is to transport electrons to oxygen in the electron transport chain of aerobic cellular respiration

What is the scientific evidence for the creation of humans by a deity?

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Here is the scientific proof that God exists. Look at the universe. Look at humans, animals, plants, and every living thing. How did these things become alive? Did they just exist out of nowhere? God created them. You simply can't argue that everything just existed. Everything has a creator. 0+0+0 cannot ever become 1. God is the only thing that exists without a creator, because God is the only creator who made everything. Look at the insane complexity of life. For example, look at humans. We are the most complex thing alive. We are made perfectly with intelligence that onbody on this earth can ever even come close to. Our little minds can only do so much. God is the one and only who can create life. Can we ever make something become alive? Obviously no. If the whole world would come together we wouldn't be able to make a single living fly..

In a population of 10,000 individuals of Monstera deliciosa, four individuals have a variegated phenotype that is caused by the

Mariulka [41]

Under the assumption of this population being in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the probability for the fixation of the var recessive allele equals 0.02 = 2%

--------------------------------

Available data:

N = 10,000 individuals ⇒ Large population

4 individuals have a variegated phenotype

variegated phenotype is caused by the recessive var allele

No selection, no additional mutation ⇒ we can assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium

We need to know the probability for the fixation of the var allele.

We assume that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, so there should be no evolution.

Since the population is in H-W equilibrium, the allelic, genotypic and phenotypic frequencies will remain the same generation after generation.

Now, we will calculate the allelic and genotypic frequencies of variegated individuals in the population.

There are 10,000 individuals, and only 4 have variegated.

So, the phenotypic frequency, F(Var) is 4/10,000 = 0.0004 = 0.4%

Since this is a recessive phenotype, this value equals the genotypic frequency, F(vv) = 0.4%

Finally, we can get the allelic frequency by taking the square root of this value.

F(vv) = q² = 0.0004

f(v) = q = √0.0004 = 0.02 = 2%

According to these calcs, the probability for the fixation of the var allele is 2%, and the probability that all individuals express the variegated phenotype is 0.4%.
