A species of rose was studied in Florida and was found to have the following distribution in petal color alleles: 70 for the red

allele (R) and 30 for the white allele (W). It is known in this species that the three possible petal colors are red, white, and pink because of codominance. Assuming this population is in equilibrium, what percentage of white roses could be expected in the next generation

Answer: C 49%

Explanation:

when a population maintains the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency in the alleles will continue unchanged from one generation to another, thus in the question if "q" is the frequency of the white allele and "p" is the frequency of the red allele, p + q will be equal to 1 in the population

using the following formula, the genotypic frequency can be obtained for the next generation

P ^ 2 + 2pq + q ^ 2 = 1

result: p = 70%, which is equivalent to: - 0.7

P ^ 2 = 0.7 * 0.7 = 0.49 converts to% = 49%

Answer:

A) Calcitonin injection

Explanation:

Parafollicular cells or C-cells of the thyroid gland produce a hormone which is involved in the regulation of calcium levels in the blood. This hormone is Calcitonin. It works in an antagonistic manner with the Parathyroid hormone (PTH). Calcitonin decreases the calcium level in the blood by increasing absorption of calcium ions in bones. In osteoporosis, when the patient is given the injection of hormone calcitonin, it produces and increase in bone mass because it negatively affects the rate of absorption of bone by the osteoclasts.

Understanding what you do about the structure of DNA so far, do you think that every organism's DNA will look and act the same?
Over [174]
Every organism’s DNA will not look and act the exact same way. If the parent reproduces asexually is the only exception to that rule. However, if all organism’s DNA resembled and acted as a deer’s DNA, then all organisms would be deer. Therefore, there are genetic differences that separate species and ensure different behaviors from organism to organism. While the DNA will be similar by using the same four nucleic bases, there is an entirely different combination of those bases from organism to organism.
