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

What does a surface area/volume ratio of 6:1 mean for the cell’s ability to get the materials it needs that move across its surf
ddd [48]

Answer and Explanation:

In a cell, the smaller the surface area in relation to its volume, the lower the rate of diffusion. The ratio of surface area to volume of an object decreases sharply with increase in its size. The materials move across the cell rapidly because the cell has a larger surface area to volume ratio thus the rate of diffusion of materials is high.

A jogger in July produces large amounts of sweat. Due to this the kidneys change the rate of urine production. Why is this impor
ivolga24 [154]
When it's hot or when the organism starts sweating a lot, this causes an amount of water to be lost from the body. Water is important for the organism to survive and it's absence wi lead to death, therefore Osmoreceptors cells in the hypothalamus in the brain, sends signals to increase the rate of water re-absorption by the kidney. This causes the urine to be of a low volume and more concentrated. This allows enough water to be used by the body as a lot has been lost during sweating.
