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

Explain why the father determines the gender of a child
vaieri [72.5K]
Both men and women have sex chromosomes. Men usually have one X and one Y chromosome, while women have two X's.

When an egg or sperm is made, it only gets one of the sex chromosomes from the parent. This means that women can only make eggs with an X chromosome. But men can make either X or Y sperm.

During fertilization, the sperm cells race toward the mother-to-be's egg cell. If a sperm with a Y beats all others, then the fetus will be XY. The pregnancy will result in a boy.

However, if a sperm with an X wins the race to the egg, then the fetus will be XX. The parents will have a baby girl.

Nearly everyone's chances are around 50% for having a boy and 50% for having a girl. And yet, we all know families that are all boys or all girls.

In North Carolina, demand for fresh water has increased dramatically. One of the main reasons for this is increased water use fo
Assoli18 [71]

Agriculture is an activity that requires a lot of fresh water.

  • This is because agricultural crops need large amounts of water to grow and remain productive.
  • In a situation of large-scale agricultural production, this need for water is even greater, causing producers to use large quantities of water that is necessary for the consumption of the population.

<h3>Give the detailed explanation?</h3>

In order to conserve fresh water and keep it at high quality levels to be used both in agriculture and for human consumption, it is necessary that agricultural producers allow the maintenance of riparian forests, use more biodegradable pesticides or with low impact on nature and pay attention to irrigation equipment to avoid waste.

In addition, many producers waste water and pollute it with an excess of pesticides and deforestation.
