Answer:

0.8 and 0.2

Explanation:

Hardy Weinberg law states that the allele frequency of the population remain stable from one generation to next generation if no natural selection, drift or mutation occurs in the population.

Let p and q be the dominant and recessive frequency of the population respectively.

The dominant phenotype means p² = 0.64

p = 0.8

and we known that p + q = 1, in hardy Weinberg equilibrium.

0.8 + q = 1.

q = 0.2

Thus, the dominant allele is 0.8 and recessive allele is 0.2.

Do all changes to dna alter the phenotype of an organism? Explain.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

No change occurs in phenotype.

Explanation:

This can happen in many situations:

perhaps the mutation occurs in a stretch of DNA with no function, or perhaps the mutation occurs in a protein-coding region, but ends up not affecting the amino acid sequence of the protein.

A food which has been grown without the use of some but not all synthetic pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, or bio engineering could be labeled--- True

What are organic foods ?

-Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides, fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients, antibiotics, or growth hormones

When a food is labeled as organic this means that no pesticides have been used in its production?

Produce can be called organic if it's certified to have grown on soil that had no prohibited substances applied for three years prior to harvest. Prohibited substances include most synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.

Are organic food safer?

According to USDA data, organic foods have fewer pesticide residues than conventionally grown produce. But the amounts for both types of produce are within the level for safe consumption.

What is the meaning of organic farming?

organic farming, agricultural system that uses ecologically based pest controls and biological fertilizers derived largely from animal and plant wastes and nitrogen-fixing cover crops.

A hybrid _____.
Serhud [2]

Answer: is heterozygous

Explanation: A hybrid is heterozygous which means that it has one dominant gene and one recessive gene. A dominant gene is a type of gene which has the ability to express itself phenotypically either in a homozygous or a heterozygous state. A dominant gene masks the effect of a recessive gene. A recessive gene is a type of gene that lacks the ability to express itself in a heterozygous state. It can only express itself outwardly in a homozygous state. It's effect is masked by the dominant gene is a heterozygous state.
