If they dont breed or die alot they will not reproduce and would possibly become extinct

Have your ideas about what happens to molecules in the liquid, solid, and gas phase changed? If so, how? What evidence supports

Westkost [7]

Various states of matter have molecules moving at different velocities.

<h3>Molecules in matter</h3>

Matter is composed of molecules. These molecules that compose matter are in constant random motion. The kinetic energy and velocity of the molecules depends on the state of matter.

Molecules of a gas are fastest followed by molecules in a liquid. Molecules in a solid do not move at all hence solids have a definite shape.

A population of 100 tigers has 30 with horizontal stripes. Using pedigrees, you ascertain that horizontal striping is caused by

bixtya [17]

Assuming that this population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can sayt that the probability that, given enough time, all tigers in the population will have horizontal stripes is 30% = 0.3.

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

Available data:

Population size, N = 100 tigers
Number of Tigers with horizontal stripes = 30
Horizontal stripes is caused by an autosomal recessive mutation.

We need to know the probability that all tigers in the population will have horizontal stripes, which is the recessive phenotype.

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 horizontal striped individuals in the population.

There are 100 individuals, and only 30 have horizontal stripes.

So, the phenotypic frequency, F(HS) is 30/100 = 0.3 = 30%

Since this is a recessive phenotype, this value equals the genotypic frequency, F(hh) = 30%

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

F(hh) = q² = 0.3

f(h) = q = √0.3 = 0.55 = 55%

According to these calcs, the probability for the fixation of the recessive allele is 55%, and the probability that all individuals express the recessive horizontal stripes phenotype is 30%.

The process by which the information in dna is transmitted by building a molecule of rna

Novay_Z [31]

transcription is after the helicase unzips the DNA strand and copies the segment and then moves it and so it can be translated into amino acids
