Mutations. Definition. A Mutationoccurs when a DNA gene is damaged or changed in such a way as to alter the genetic message carried by that gene. A Mutagen is an agent of substance that can bring about a permanent alteration to the physical composition of a DNA gene such that the genetic message is changed
Answer:
The correct answer is -
Genotypes: 1 heterozygous dominant: 1 recessive
Phenotypes: 1 long hair cat: 1 short hair cat
probability: 50% chances of both long and short hair cats
Explanation:
It is given that long hair is a dominant represented by H, over the short hair represented by h. In the cross of a heterozygous cat for long hair with a cat with short hair, would produce H, h and h, h gametes respectively.
Cross: Hh × hh
H h
h Hh hh
h Hh hh
In this Punnett, there are two heterozygous long hair offspring produced and two short-hair cats.
So, Genotypes: 1 heterozygous dominant: 1 recessive
Phenotypes: 1 long hair cat: 1 short hair cat
probability: 50% chances of both long and short hair cats
Answer:
Explanation
Given that 36% are recessive in traits
100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%
P=dominant allele
q= recessive allele
P2= dominant genotype
q2= recessive genotype
according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1
64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore
p2=0.64
then
P=√0.64
p= 0.8
Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8
The answer is
c

A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule. That is, it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged. The molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The bonds between the atoms are called covalent bonds, because the atoms share electrons.
