The allele frequency for the recessive allele is B. 0.10. Thus, option "B" is correct.
<h3>How, explain your answer?</h3>
The Hardy-Weinburg equation is p + q = 1, or p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1, where p is dominant and q is recessive.
If 10 out of 100 rabbits have white fur, 10% of the rabbits have white fur. Therefore, 90% of the rabbits have brown fur, which can be substituted into the first equation to becoming 0.9 + 0.1 = 1. Now that we know what p and q equal, we can solve the rest of the equation.
0.9^2 = 0.81
0.9 * 0.1 * 2 = 0.18
0.1^2 = 0.01
Therefore, the allele frequency of the recessive allele is 0.1.

<span><span>anonymous </span> 3 years ago</span>Proteins are involved in almost all of the cell's functions. They can act as:
Transportation: they can transport hydrophobic molecules in blood for example
Regulation: protein hormones and enzymes
Receptor: can act as receptors on cell surface and in the subsequent signal transduction (G-protein for instance)
It is true that all proteins are made up of up to 20 amino acids, but there are several reasons for their diverse actions:
-One reason is the possible sequence and number of amino acids: Met-Ser-His is different from Met-His-Ser for example. Besides, you have different chain length, for a protein is made up of long chain of polypeptide (longer than 50-70 amino acids) and can have any of the 20 amino acids with repetition, so using simple probability, this can provide up to practically unlimited combination with proteins that have chains of thousands of amino acids.
-Another very crucial reason for the diversity of protein action is the conformation. A protein passes by at least 3 conformational stages before becoming mature. The straight amino acid chain is the primary structure of the protein that can never be active. Spatial modification of this primary structure results in a secondary structure, Helix or Beta-pleated sheets (or other coiling structure), that is also inactive. Further coiling and bending of the secondary structure produce a 3-dimentional conformation that is the active form of the protein. Moreover, many proteins can undergo further conformational rearrangement and combination with other protein sub-units producing a quaternary structure.
With the advancement of technology, the development of biotechnology began. Biotechnology is defined as the use of living organisms for a specific purpose. The most familiar uses of biotechnology include pharmaceutical companies that create drugs for rare diseases, the transformation of biomass into fuel to power cars and buildings, and the use of enzymes to clean up oil spills.
A baby isn't considered a fetus until about 8 to 9 weeks after
conception. During those first weeks, the baby is considered as the
embryo. The embryo is the development of the pregnancy until about 9
weeks, it will then turn into a fetus.
Wavy hair is a very easy example that this is false. It's a merge between straight and curly hair. Our traits tend to mix and blend together, it's not so simple. Everybody isn't just tall or short, one or the other. Everybody is a different height because it's a mid between your parents.
