if there are 500 people in a population, and 150 are homozygous HbA/hba, 150 are homozygous hbs/hbs, and 200 are heterozygous hb

sineoko [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

0.547

Explanation:

Given -

Total Population - 500

Individuals with homozygous HbA/hbA genotype - 150

Individuals with homozygous hbs/hbs genotype -150

Individuals with heterozygous hba/hbs genotype -  200

Let us assume the given population is in Hardy Weinberg' equilibrium

The frequency of individuals in the given population with homozygous HbA/hba genotype is equal to number of individuals with homozygous HbA/hba genotype divided by total population.

\frac{150}{500} \\= 0.3

The frequency of hba allele is equal to

\sqrt{0.3} \\= 0.5477

The inheritance of gene expression patterns, in the absence of the initiating signal, is called what
Veronika [31]

The inheritance of gene expression patterns, in the absence of the initiating signal, is called Epigenetic regulation.

Epigenetic changes can be defined as inherited variations which are not present in the DNA sequence. Gene expression is regulated at different levels and not merely in response to DNA modifications. Examples of epigenetic control include DNA methylation, histone deacetylation and mi-RNA expression.

Epigenetic mechanisms add an adaptive layer of control in the regulation of gene expression that allows an organism to adapt to a dynamic environment.

Epigenetic regulation increases the functional intricacy of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by changing chromatin structure, nuclear organization as well as transcript stability.

The drug cytochalasin B blocks the function of actin. Which of the following aspects of the cell cycle would be most disrupted b
Sladkaya [172]

The correct answer is: E) cleavage furrow formation and cytokinesis

Cytochalasin B (cytos-cell and chalasis-relaxation) is a molecule which inhibit network formation by actin filaments by blocking monomer addition. As a result, itshortens actin filaments. This molecule is involved in cytoplasmic division where it blocks the formation of contractile microfilaments. One of the microfilament’s function includes cytokinesis and formation of cleavage furrow so these functions are affected by cytochalasin B.
