These theories have been used to explain the transmission of genes that promote homosexuality.
According to these theories, something happens to our genetic material when we are born or give birth to children which makes people experience attraction to the same sex. In fertile females theory, if there is a particular gene found on the x chromosome in men, they are likely to be gay; but if it's found in women, they will be more fertile than usual.
A turgid plant cell would be found in a Hypotonic environment.
The answer is <span>A. p2 = 0.36, 2pq = 0.48, q2 = 0.16.
</span>
Let's first distinguish alleles frequencies from genotypes frequencies:
p - a frequency of R allele,
q - a frequency of r allele,
p² - a frequency of RR genotype,
2pq - a frequency of Rr genotype,
q² - a frequency of rr genotype.
<span>The gene frequency of allele r changes from 0.38 to 0.40, thus:
</span>q = 0.40
Now, we will implement this in the following equation:
p + q = 1
If q = 0.40, then:
p + 0.40 = 1
⇒ p = 1 - 0.40
⇒ p = 0.60
Now, the frequencies of both alleles are know and it is easy to calculate the <span>genotype frequencies:
-</span> the frequency of RR genotype: p² = 0.60² = 0.36
- the frequency of Rr genotype: 2pq = 2 · 0.60 · 0.40 = 0.48
- the frequency of rr genotype: q² = 0.40² = 0.16
Therefore, the new genotype frequencies in that population are <span>p2 = 0.36, 2pq = 0.48, q2 = 0.16.</span>
When an animal eats, food stays in the stomach for a period of time. When a unicellular organism, such as Paramecium, takes in food, the food is contained in which organelle? Amino acids link together by peptide bonds to form proteins.
