Answer:
All organisms require sulfur as a macro-nutrient. (Ans. E)
Explanation:
Sulfur is necessary for all living things. It is taken up in the form of sulfate from the soil and sea water by the plants, and algae.
Sulfur is known as the essential nutrient for plant growth. Sulfur playing various important role in plants. About 90% of the sulfur is absorbed by the plants for the purpose of amino acids synthesis, known as the building blocks of proteins. Sulfur is important for the enzyme which is helping in the formation of the chlorophyll molecule. Sulfur is essential for the synthesis of oil crops.
In human body sulfur playing some essential role such as amino acid production which is converting into proteins and producing enzymes. Sulfur is important for insulin production, insulin allow the cells to use glucose as energy. Sulfur is found in most important antioxidant known as glutathione, which helping in the inhibition of oxidation of the other molecules and preventing from cell damage. Collagen provide skin strength and structure, sulfur is important for collagen synthesis as well.
Energy loss is demonstrated more clearly on an energy pyramid than on a food web.
Answer:
B. (i) yes; (ii)-yes
Explanation:
If a population is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, allele frequencies can be calculated from the given values of genotype frequencies and genotype frequencies can be calculated if the allele frequencies are given.
For a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium; p+q=1
Here, p= frequency of recessive allele and q = frequency of dominant allele.
And p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
p2= Frequency of homozygous dominant genotype
2pq = Frequency of heterozygous dominant genotype
q2 = Frequency of homozygous recessive genotype
For example, if frequency of homozygous recessive genotype (q2) is 0.40, then, the frequency of recessive allele (q) will be = square root of 0.40= 0.63
Likewise, frequency of dominant allele (p) in this population will be = 1-q = 1-0.63 = 0.37
