False - 90% of digestion occurs in the small intestines because that's where the food nutrients are absorbed.

Here is your answer:


This statement is "false" or the second option. Digestion takes places as soon as you put food in your mouth. That's because your saliva has chemicals that starts to break down the food as soon as you put it in your mouth. Then it goes down through your esophagus then through your stomach going through the primary intestines but when it gets to the small intestine that's when it sucks all the nutrient's out of the food that would give the body energy and gets rid of the food that won't.


Hope this helps!

In a population of lizards, the allele that causes red eyes (R) is dominant, while the allele that causes green eyes is recessiv
zhenek [66]
The answer is 0.47 or 47%.

Let's first distinguish some terms and their frequencies.
R - the dominant allele that causes red eyes
r - the recessive allele that causes green eyes

Since R is dominant over r, lizards with at least one dominant R allele will have red eyes. Therefore, the genotypes and the phenotypes are as following:
genotypes - phenotypes
RR              - the lizards with red eyes
Rr               - the lizards with red eyes
rr                - the lizards with green eyes

Now, we will use some Hardy-Weinberg equations:
p + q = 1
p² + 2pq + q² = 1

where:
p - the frequency of dominant allele R
q - the frequency of recessive allele r
p² - the frequency of lizards with genotype RR
2pq - the frequency of lizards with genotype Rr
q² - the frequency of lizards with genotype <span>rr
</span>
We are interested in <span>the frequency p of the dominant R allele.
</span>So, we have the frequency (72%) of the lizards that have red eyes. However, lizards with genotypes RR and Rr will have red eyes. Since their frequencies are p² and 2pq, respectively, we have:
p² and 2pq = 72% = 72/100 = 0.72

Now, use this in the equation p² + 2pq + q² = 1:
0.72 + q² = 1
q² = 1 - 0.72 = 0.28

From here, we will calculate q and later p using the formula p + q = 1:
q² = 0.28
q = √0.28 = 0.53

p + q = 1
p + 0.53 = 1
p = 1 - 0.53
p = 0.47
