Answer:
west to east
Explanation:
The weather system of New York moves in the west to east direction. It is driven by the jet stream which moves from west to east.
The jet stream is nothing but the normal trade winds that blows in and around the equator and move from west to east. While very strong wind forces start blowing from east to west due to the tropical trade winds
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The linkage relation of two genes can be determined on the basis of calculating recombination frequency.
If the recombination frequency value is greater than 50% then the genes are not linked and if the value is less than 50% then the genes are linked.
In the given question, the crossover gametes formed will be Ab = 100
and aB= 106.
Therefore,
Since the recombinant frequency value is larger than 50% therefore the genes do not show linkage.
Thus, True is the correct answer.
D. One sex has a higher chance to inherit it than the other (male).
These can be either recessive or dominant. We usually think more of the recessive traits like color blindness and hemophilia but dominant sex-linked traits also exist (fragile X).
Answer:
allelic frequency a = 30%
allelic frequency A = 70%
Explanation:
You are studying a population of sparrows in which the phenotype is determined by a single locus. Only two alleles for this locus are known for this population, which are distinguished by the codes 'A' and 'a'. The distribution of phenotypes in the population indicates that 49% of the population is homozygous 'AA', 42% is heterozygous and 9% 'aa' homozygous. How is the allele frequency for 'A' and 'a' determined based on these observations?
According to the case, the allelic frequency for A and a will be searched with the data:
homozygotes AA = 49%
heterozygotes Aa = 42%
homozygous aa = 9%
Frequency of homozygotes 'aa'
(q 2) = 9/100 = 0.09
we can obtain the allelic frequency of a through the following formula:
a (q) = √0.09
The result will be
= 0.3
we change to percentage
= 30%
we have the following formula
p + q = 1
to find the allele frequency A, represented by p
p = 1 - 0.3
we get the following result
p = 0.7
we change to percentage
= 70%
