Answer: c - The proportion of the population that is heterozygous (Aa) for this trait is 0.50

Explanation: Percentage of those with homozygous recessive alleles (aa) in the population has been given as 25%. We can represent this as q².

Recall that Hardy-Weinberg provides the equation p² + 2pq + q² = 1, where

P² = homozygous dominant alleles

q² = homozygous recessive alleles

2pq = heterozygous alleles

q² = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25

q = √0.25 = 0.5

Also recall that for two alleles, p and q, p + q = 1.

Therefore, p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.5 0.5

Since we now have the values of p and q, we can calculate the proportion of heterozygous alleles (Aa) as 2pq = 2 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.5

Adding and removing energy can change the physical properties of a substance.
postnew [5]

Answer: True.

Explanation: Energy is being removed from the substance as it changes state. As energy is added to the liquid, particles throughout the liquid move faster. Boiling. When particles move fast enough to break away from other particles, they evaporate and become gas.

9. a) How does hydrogen bonding help the transport of water in plants?
grigory [225]

Answer:

Water has a high Cohesion because of Hydrogen bonding. This is important as transport of water in the Xylem in plants relies on water being pulled up. Cohesion also gives the water a high surface tension, allowing small organisms, such as Pond Skaters, to walk along it.

Explanation:

Water molecules forming hydrogen bonds with one another. The partial negative charge on the O of one molecule can form a hydrogen bond with the partial positive charge on the hydrogens of other molecules. Water molecules are also attracted to other polar molecules and to ions.

Plants obtain the hydrogen they need from water molecules. Don't try to feed your plant hydrogen gas -- your plant wouldn't know what to do with it if you did. As long as they have water, plants can readily obtain all the hydrogen they need. :)
