You know that the narrow-sense heritability of milk production in Ayrshire cattle is 0.587. You perform an experiment where you

take a parental population of cattle with a mean milk production of 5.1L/hr and selectively breed only the top 10% of cows in this population, who have a mean milk production of 8.9L/hr, what is the response to selection (R) in your experiment

Answer:

Explanation:

Narrow sense heritability - h​​​​2

​​​​​​selection differential - S

Selection differential is calculated from the difference between the population average and the parental population.

Breeder's equation:

Response to selection - R = h​​​​​​2S

Mean milk production of 10% cows for experiment = 8.9L/hr

Mean milk production of parental population = 5.1L/hr

Selection differential S= 8.9 - 5.1 = 3.8 L/hr

Response to selection = 0.587 × 3.8 = 2.23

Complementary strand of DNA?<br> DNA Strand 1: AATCGGTAC
lesantik [10]

Answer:

TTAGCCATG

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a double helix molecule made up of two complementary polynucleotide strands oriented antiparallel to each other. Each nucleotide in both DNA strands is composed of a five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. In DNA, there are four types of nitrogenous bases: Thymine, Guanine, Adenine and Cytosine (in RNA, Uracil replace Thymine). According to the base-pairing rules, Adenine always pairs with Thymine through two hydrogen bonds, whereas Guanine always pairs with Cytosine through three hydrogen bonds.
