The calcium get into your body through Vitamin D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to make the bones healthy, calcium and phosphorus is very essential.  Calcium cannot be made by human body. The body only gets the calcium it needs, by means the food you eat, or from supplements. Vitamin D plays a major role in the absorption of calcium in human body. Calcium is a major mineral in a human body that helps in the proper working of body cells and nerves.

The quantity of the minerals like calcium, phosphorous,etc that are present in a segment of bone determines the density of bone. A percentage of 15 to 20 of calcium is absorbed from the diet that human intake. When the levels of vitamin D is low, there will be lower intake to calcium by gut. This causes the bones to become weaker.

horsena [70]

Complete question:

A sample of butterflies contained 50% yellow-winged individuals and 50% black-winged individuals. In this species, wing color is determined by a single gene with two alleles, and the allele for black is dominant. Which of the following statements about the allele frequencies in the sample would most likely be true?  Do not assume that this sample was obtained from a population in genetic equilibrium.

a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.

b)The allele frequency of yellow is 3 times the allele frequency of black.

c)The allele frequency of yellow is twice the allele frequency of black.

d)The allele frequencies of black and yellow are equal.

e) The allele frequency of black is greater than the allele frequency of yellow.

2.Now assume that the population of butterflies sampled in question above is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Also assume that the sample is random and large enough that the allele frequencies in the sample equal the allele frequencies in the population.  What is the frequency of the allele for a) yellow wings in the population? Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in question 1, what would the correct answer be and why?

Answer:

  • a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.
  • f(b) = q = 0.71

Which statement about the DNA replication process in prokaryotes is true?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

The answer is D. Prokaryotes have one origin of replication but it proceeds in two directions.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process in which in which one parental DNA strand acts as template to synthesize complementary daughter strand. There are specific sequences in DNA from where replication starts. These sequences are called origin of replication. In Eukaryotic cells due to large number of DNA many origins of replication are present. However, in prokaryotic DNA only one origin of replication is present that is bi-directional.
