3) The most common form of color-blindness - red/green color-blindness - is an X-linked recessive trait affecting around 8% of t

he male population in the US. What proportion of females would you expect to have this trait?

3 0

Answer:

0.08, because for an X-linked trait the genotype frequencies among males are the same as the allele frequencies. Therefore, you would expect about q2 = 0.0064 (or 0.64%) of the female population to be affected and 2pq =0.147 (or 14.7%) of the female population to be carriers.

Why are metals good conductors of electricity but covalent compounds are poor conductors
Nataly [62]
The electrons in the outermost shell of the covalent compounds are shared by nearby atoms. As there are no free electrons for conducting electricity, the covalent compounds are perfect insulators at absolute zero. As the temperature increases, some electrons move from valence band to conduction band. This gives rise to conductivity. But as the numbers of charge carriers are very low, covalent compounds are poor conductors. On the other hand metals are good conductors cause of their bonding. Metallic bonding consists of a sea of electrons rather than discreet bonds. The free electrons are able to move freely. Since electricity and heat need electrons to move, the bonding promotes conductivity.
