State the five requirements for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
mihalych1998 [28]

When it comes to population evolution and genetics, we cannot fail to cite the Hardy-Weinberg principle which emphasizes that if evolutionary factors such as natural selection, mutation, migration and genetic oscillation do not act on a particular population, the frequencies genotypic proportions will remain constant.

The five requirements for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:

  • Large-scale breeding population: For a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it is important that this population is large, as small populations favor genetic drift (unanticipated fluctuations in allele frequencies from one generation to another).
  • Random mating: In order for the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur, it is necessary that the mating occur at random, with no preference for certain groups within the population. In this case, we say that the population is in panmixia, that is, they all mate at random.
  • No mutations: Mutations alter the total alleles present in a population (gene pool). Therefore, in a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium population, no mutations should occur.
  • No gene flow: When there is gene flow due to migration or immigration of individuals, some genes may be included or excluded from the population. Thus, in an equilibrium situation, no gene flow occurs.
  • Lack of natural selection: For a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, natural selection must not be acting on it. If natural selection acts, some genotypes will be selected, modifying the allelic frequencies of the population.

In 3-5 sentences explain how increases in the human population impacts water resources. provide specific examples in your answer
astra-53 [7]

An increase in human population negatively impacts the water resources. There is only a small amount of clean and drinkable water on Earth. If more people are on Earth, more of this water will be used by the population. An increase of people also means that more fossil fuel will be used.

<h3>How does human population impact water resources?</h3>

Population growth especially will limit the amount of water available per person, because an increase in per capita water consumption driven by development will intensify water demand, straining the local water supply.

in humans, dimples are dominant to no dimples. cross a woman with no dimples with a man who is heterozygous for dimples. determi
OverLord2011 [107]

Genotype: 50% Aa and 50% aa

Phenotype: 50% Dimples and 50% no dimples

Explanation: Using a punnet square, we can figure out that the mother is recessive and the father is heterozygous. Putting the mother at the top of the square and the father on the side, you end up with the results above by crossing each square with the corresponding letters. It's okay if the letters end up backwards. Just be sure to face them the right direction, capitals being first once you finish.

Hope this helps!
