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

How does science shape our world?
Ratling [72]
Science isn't just gathering factual information and data, it's a body of knowledge. It's a way of thinking about problems, and how to solve them. Science shapes everything in our world since everything revolves around natural rules.

It's thanks to computer <em>science </em>that you're able to be on this site right now. It's thanks to <em>science </em>as a whole that we have any of the technology we have today, and the cures for the many once <em>deadly </em>diseases. So, if you want to know how science shapes our world... Just look around you. =)

Which of the following would be best
liraira [26]

<u>Answer</u>:

A) Determine the average number of times during a week in May that a group of bees visits flowers.

<u>Explanation</u>:

These observations may be mostly qualitative in nature at the real or exploratory stage of a study, but trials are usually done to show them in the form of quantitative data at some later stage. It is important that experimental information must be accumulated and arranged in a sequential fashion and in a form which can be understood by all: ideas may be more easily extracted, and results will be more easily drawn from data which have been arranged into a coherent pattern.

What would happen if (G) guanine lined up with (T) thymine during meiosis. Please help me with this.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:they won't for a pair

Explanation:Basically it all depends on process called complementary base pairing, the structure of thymine and adenine is such that it forms two hydrogen bonds and therefore pair up

2.guanine and cytosine have such structure that they form three hydrogen bonds and pair up

So Adenine complements only thymine and guanine complements cytosine and there aren't any chances of guanine pairing up with thymine.
