Answer:

0.995

Explanation:

Given,

The selection coefficient as 0.005

The question pinpoints recessive homozygotes were selected against, the relative fitness

Fitness is in relation to the level of relative survival

The recessive homozygote being selected against, we use W = 1 - s

The formulae of interest

when recessive homozygotes were selected against, the relative fitness

   W   = 1 - s

       = 1- 0.005

       = 0.995 (3 decimal places).

in most cases would a soil sample from temperate deciduous forest be more or less nutrient-rich than soil sample from tropical r
taurus [48]
A soil sample from a temperate deciduous forest would be more nutrient rich that a sample from the tropical rain forest.
In the rain forest the tree tops form a canopy and the tops of trees absorb 90% of the sunlight and only 10% can get down to the understory which is the area under the canopy. The soil is very nutrient poor.
In a temperate deciduous forest there is no canopy so more sunlight can get to the soil. Which makes it more nutrient.

Adults who are on their feet alot for work will often soak their swollen ankles in a pail of hot water with Epsom salt dissolved
Tanya [424]

The type of solution formed is hypertonic.

<h3>What are hypertonic solutions?</h3>

Hypertonic solutions are solutions with higher dissolved solutes as compared to the sap of the cells suspended in them.

Epsom salt is made up largely of magnesium sulfate. Thus, a solution formed by dissolving Epsom salt is water will have more magnesium in it than the cells of the part of the body soaked in it.  

Hence, such a solution is hypertonic.
