Answer:

B) 2pq

Explanation:

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium refers to a model which explains the effect of evolution on the gene pool.

The model is based on the assumptions that if no evolutionary force like genetic drift, natural selection and many other will act on the population and therefore the gene pool  (gene frequency and the genotypic frequency) of a populations remains in equilibrium or constant throughout the generations.

The genotypic frequency in the model is calculated by  

P² =  genotype of a homozygous dominant trait

q² = genotype of a homozygous recessive trait

2pq = genotype of heterozygous trait.

Thus, P²+2pq+q²=1

In the given question, since the population is in equilibrium that is no evolutionary force is acting, therefore, the genotype frequency remains the same that is the frequency of Aa will remain same that is 2pq even after 100 generations.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Answer:

incomplete dominance

Explanation:

This is because incomplete dorminance is a type of inheritance pattern in which a dorminant allele does not completely masked the effect of recessive allele. The recessive allele is expressed little and the dorminant. Example is the nose size. The allele for big nose and recessive allele for small nose are not completely dorminant.

which type of molecule stores the main source of energy used by animals? a) lipids b) proteins c) glycogen d) starch
Flauer [41]

The correct answer is option C-glycogen

Glycogen is an immediate source of energy in animals. Glycogen is formed of small sub-units called glucose monomers. The process of formation of glycogen is called glycogenesis.  

Glycogen is animal equivalent to starch.  

When body need energy, the stored glycogen breaks down into small monomers called glucose and provide energy to the cell.  

The excessive amount of glycogen is stored in muscles and liver.
