small group of 100 people decide to isolate themselves from the world and move to a small and remote deserted island. Out of thi

irina [24]

Answer:

Frequency of p $= 0.684$

Frequency of p $= 0.316$

Number of individuals with homozygous dominant (AA) $= 47$

Number of individuals with heterozygous (Aa) $= 43$

Number of individuals with homozygous recessive (aa) $= 10$

Explanation:

Out of 100 people, 10 have albino skin (aa)

So, the frequency of homozygous recessive individuals $(q^{2})$ is $\frac{10}{100} = 0.1$

Now, q will be

$= \sqrt{q^{2} } = \sqrt{0.1} \\= 0.316$

As per Hardy Weinberg's equation -

$p + q = 1$

Substituting the value of q in above equation, we get -

$p + 0.316 = 1p = 1 -0.316\\p = 0.684$

Now the frequency of homozygous dominant (AA) will be

$p^{2} = 0.684^{2} \\= 0.467$

Hence, out of 100 people $0.467 * 100 = 46.7 or 47$ people are homozygous dominant (AA)

Like wise out of 100 people $0.1 * 100 = 10$ people are homozygous recessive (aa)

As per As per Hardy Weinberg's equation-

$p^{2} + q^{2} + 2pq = 1\\$

Substituting the values in above equation, we get -

$0.467 + 0.316 + 2pq = 1\\2pq = 1 -( 0.467+ 0.1)\\2pq = 0.433$

So, out of 100 people $0.433 * 100 = 43.3 or 43$ people are heterozygous (Aa)

What are two important processes that occur during the prophase?

Sergio [31]

Answer:

In prophase, the nucleolus disappears and chromosomes condense and become visible. In prometaphase, kinetochores appear at the centromeres and mitotic spindle microtubules attach to kinetochores. In metaphase, chromosomes are lined up and each sister chromatid is attached to a spindle fiber.

In some deserts, the air temperature can change over 60 to 70 degrees in a single day. Which of these properties

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Being endothermic

Explanation:

Humans are not cold-blooded and we don't photosynthesise so only the second option applies to humans;

We produce heat internally within our bodies so we are endotherms, i.e. warm-blooded;

We shiver and have thermogenesis through metabolism to generate heat to keep body temp up and also sweating and physiological mechanisms to cool out bodies down.
