Answer:
1. Allele frequency of b = 0.09 (or 9%)
2. Allele frequency of B = 0.91 (0.91%)
3. Genotype frequency of BB = 0.8281 (or 82.81%)
4. Genotype frequency of Bb = 0.1638 (or 16.38%)
Explanation:
Given that:
p = the frequency of the dominant allele (represented here by B) = 0.91
q = the frequency of the recessive allele (represented here by b) = 0.09
For a population in genetic equilibrium:
p + q = 1.0 (The sum of the frequencies of both alleles is 100%.)
(p + q)^2 = 1
Therefore:
p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1
in which:
p^2 = frequency of BB (homozygous dominant)
2pq = frequency of Bb (heterozygous)
q^2 = frequency of bb (homozygous recessive)
p^2 = 0.91^2 = 0.8281
2pq = 2(0.91)(0.9) = 0.1638
Answer:
The correct answer is explained below:
Explanation:
- According to the question, heterozygous tall, heterozygous axillary plant has the following genotype, TtAa.
- It produces the following gametes: TA, Ta, tA, ta.
- The heterozygous tall, terminal plant has the following genotype: Ttaa
- It produces the following gametes: Ta, ta.
- Crossing them,
TA Ta tA ta
Ta TTAa TTaa TtAa Ttaa
(Tall, Axillary) (Tall, Terminal) (Tall, Axillary) (Tall, Terminal)
ta TtAa Ttaa ttAa ttaa
(Tall, Axillary) (Tall, Terminal) (Short, Axillary) (Short, Terminal)
- The genotypes of the offspring obtained are: TTAa, TTaa, TtAa, Ttaa, ttAa and ttaa respectively.
- The phenotypes obtained are:
- Tall, Axillary = 3.
- Tall, Terminal = 3.
- Short, Axillary = 1.
- Short, Terminal = 1.

Answer:
Particulate matter
Explanation:
An electrostatic precipitator is an air filter. For this reason, we can say that the air pollutant that would be captured if electrostatic precipitates were installed in the exhaust systems would be the particulate matter.
An electrostatic precipitator is very effective in controlling atmospheric pollution in an industry, factory or even a plant that emits polluting gases into the atmosphere. This equipment captures the polluting particles, leaving only the clean private gas to be transferred to the atmosphere.
