Answer:

0.7

Explanation:

Using Hardy-Weinberg equation of genetic variation being constant when disturbing factors such has mutation and others are removed.

p² + pq + q² = 1 and p + q = 1

where p² is the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype (RR) and q² is the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype (rr) and 2pq is the frequency of heterozygous genotype (Rr). p represent the frequency of "R" and q represent "g". since the coefficient against the green/green homozygote is 0.30 then

the fitness of the green/green homozygote = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

Which type of epithelium is composed of multiple layers, including an apical layer containing tall, slender cells?
Mademuasel [1]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

  • Simple squamous
  • Simple columnar
  • Pseudostratified squamous
  • Stratified squamous
  • Stratified columnar

Answer:

Stratified columnar

Explanation:

Epithelial tissue is the tissue formed by the cells which form a layer of cell and lines the lumen of the organ and also covers the organs. The epithelial tissue can be classified based on the number of layer and shape of the cell.

In the given question, the shape of the cell is slender and are tall therefore are called columnar. The cells form more than one layer or multiple layers therefore form stratified layers.

Therefore,  the epithelial tissue formed by these slender shaped multiple layers is known as the stratified columnar layer. The stratified columnar is present in the respiratory tract and the digestive tract.

Thus,  Stratified columnar is the correct answer.

Characteristics are the appearance or behavior. Example  plants performed photosynthesis is characteristics. Human forelimb also performed  many function is also characteristics.

What do we call a genetic cross that follows two separate characters, such as pea seed color and pea seed shape?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Dihybrid cross

Explanation:

Whereas a monohybrid cross is a cross between two organisms that differ in a single trait, a dihybrid cross follows two traits.

It describes a mating experiment  in which the phenotypes of two genes are followed through to the offspring in order to study the inheritance at those genes

Scientists present a theory that the major parts of the Sun's life cycle would be:

  • The Sun would be exist in the form of a red giant first dispersing an enormous amount of light energy and heat energy.
  • Then, it will get converted into a white dwarf.
  • After becoming a white dwarf, the Sun will start to get cool.
