A hypothetical population of 10,000 humans has 6840 individuals with the blood type AA, 2860 individuals with blood type AB and

300 individuals with the blood type BB. If the next generation contained 25,000 individuals, how may individuals would have BB blood type, assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Express as a whole number.

Answer:

750

Explanation:

According to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,

p + q = 1

p² + 2pq + q² = 1

where,

p = frequency of dominant allele

q = frequency of recessive allele

p² = frequency of homozygous dominant genotype

2pq =  frequency of heterozygous genotype

q² = frequency of homozygous recessive genotype

Here,

q² = BB = ( 300/10000 )

= 0.03

If the population is in HWE, next generation would also have the same frequency of BB genotype.

Number of offspring in next generation = 25000

BB blood type offspring = 0.03 * 25000 = 750

10 examples of biting and 10 example of piercing and chewing pests and how they affect crops​
VikaD [51]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pests that affect crops have different feeding habits. Some pests belong to the type biting and chewing pests. These pests bite into the plant parts and chew them. This will leave circular holes in the leaves and semicircular holes in the leaf edges.

Piercing and sucking insects pierce into the plant parts and suck the sap. Removal of sap turns the plants yellow, and wilted. The growth might get stunted and in severe cases the plant may die off.
