Many hurricanes experienced by florida have the same locations of origin off the west coast of Africa to the Caribbean Sea because the interaction between the hot dry air of the Sahara and the cooler, more humid air from the Gulf of Guinea to its South forms what's known as the African easterly jet, which blows from east to west across Africa.

In cats, the gene for Calico (multicolored) cats is an x-linked trait that is
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Considering the <u>whole progeny</u> (100%), there will be

  • 25% Black male kittens, XBY
  • 0% Calico Male kittens
  • 25% Calico female kittens, XBXR

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • The gene for Calico (multicolored) cats is an x-linked trait and codominant
  • Calico Females receive a "B" and an "R" gene, and have black and orange splotches on white coats. Their genotype is XBXR.
  • Males can only be black or orange, but never calico. Their genotype is XBY and XRY

Cross: a female calico cat with a black male

Parentals)   XBXR    x    XBY

Gametes)  XB  XR       XB   Y

Punnett square)    XB        XR

                   XB   XBXB   XBXR

                    Y      XBY      XRY  

F1) Among the whole progeny:

  •     2/4 = 50%  will be black (female XBXB and male XBY)
  •     1/4  = 25% will be Calico (female XBXR)
  •     1/4  = 25% will be Orange (male XRY)  

   Among females:

  •    1/2 = 50% of females will be black, XBXB
  •    1/2 = 50% of females will be Calico, XBXR

   Among males:

  •    1/2 = 50% of males will be black, XBY
  •    1/2 = 50% of males will be orange, XRY

Human abo blood groups are determined by a single gene with 3 alleles: a, b, and o. in a sample of 300 individuals, 100 are bloo
KengaRu [80]
Allele frequency is determined by looking at the dominant and recessive allele of a genotype. 
Using the given, we can come up with the following computation for the allele frequency:
allele A = 100/300 allele B = 50/300 allele O = 150/300
Hence, the frequency of allele A is 0.33 or 33%, allele B is .17 or 17% and allele O is 0.50 or 50%.

Liposomes consist of ________ bilayers that enclose an aqueous compartment where drugs can be contained for delivery to specific
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Phospholipid bilayer

Explanation:

Liposomes are vesicles are spherical in shape. They consist of at least one phospholipd bilayer most especially phosphatidycholine. Liposomes are artficial vesicles similar to a membrane, because it has an hydrophilic core surrounded by a hydrophobic lipid bilayer.

Liposomes are artificial prepared and are used for the transportation of substances like drugs and nutrients between cell parts, outside of the cell and into the cell.  

In liposomal drug delivery, the liposome fuses with other internal cell membranes at the site of action and releases its liposomal content.

Trava [24]

Answer:

There was no change in the number of days with poor flower availability

Explanation:

When replicating a study, the researcher develops the exact same study (experiment/treatment) in different places (experimental unit). In this case, as the researcher replicates the study in the Appalachian Mountains and gets similar results, that means that there was no change in the number of days with poor flower availability.
