Explanation:

Reef : a ridge of jagged rock, coral, or sand just above or below the surface of the sea.

Area of desposition: is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass.

Sand dunes: is a mount, hill or ridge of sand that lies behind the part of the beach affected by tides.

Continental deposit of

gravel and sand: ???????????

Alluvial fan: a triangle-shaped deposit of gravel, sand, and even smaller pieces of sediment

Sand mounds in a desert: is called "sand dunes". A sand dune can be described as a "small mound or ridge" of hill formed out of sand.

Sedimentary dispositional environment : describes the combination of physical, chemical and biological processes associated with the deposition of a particular type of sediment and, therefore, the rock types that will be formed after lithification, if the sediment is preserved in the rock record.

Shoreline deposit of sediments: The coastal environment consists of constantly changing conditions, caused by the forces of wind, waves, currents and tides.

Beach sand:Sand is a loose granular material blanketing the beaches, riverbeds and deserts of the world.

A.
The genotype frequencies can be determined by dividing the number of individuals with a genotype by the total number all the individuals. 
FF genotype frequency:
98÷200=0,49. There are approximately 5 <span>homozygous dominant mice in 10.
Ff genotype frequency:
84</span>÷200=0,42. There are approximately 4 <span>heterozygous mice in 10.
ff genotype frequency:
18</span>÷200=0,09. There are approximately 1 <span>homozygous recessive mouse in 10.

B.
To determine the frequency of an allele we can divide the number of times that the allele appears by the total number of alleles.
F allele frequency:
</span>\frac{(98*2)+84}{400}<span>=0.7
There are 7 F alleles in 10 random alleles.
f </span>allele frequency:
\frac{84+(18*2)}{400}=0.3
There are 3 f alleles in 10 random alleles.<span>
