Consider a population of 1099 apple fly maggots. In this population, you observe that the allele frequency of the dominant allel

e at the ADH locus, where are are two alleles, is 0.554. What is the expected number of heterozygotes if this population is at HWE (please give your answer as an integer)?

Answer:

543

Explanation:

Given is the frequency of the dominant allele in the population (p)= 0.554

Since the locus has two alleles and the population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of the recessive allele (q) of the same locus would be= 1-0.554= 0.446

Frequency of heterozygous genotype in the given population = 2pq= 2 x 0.554 x 0.446= 0.4941

Now, the number of heterozygous genotype in the given population= 0.4941 x 1099= 543.0159 = 543

3.Why should a model of the carbon cycle include the burning of fossil fuels?(1 point)
user100 [1]

Answer:

Burning fossil fuels moves carbon from the geosphere to the atmosphere.

Explanation:

  • Fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and natural gas are produced and stored in the geosphere. i.e. the part of the Earth that includes the Earth's interior, landforms, rocks and minerals.
  • Fossil fuels, extracted from the geosphere are burned to generate energy.
  • Combustion of fossil fuels releases the stored carbon into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.

For half of the radioisotopes of a certain kind to decay into its more stable isotope, the amount of time required is called the
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

For the half of the radioisotopes of a certain kind to decay into more stable isotope, the amount of time required is called The Half Life.

Radiocarbon dating is typically used to date more recent objects like bones, cloth, wood, and plant fibers.

Sedimentary rocks cannot be accurately dated using isotope dating because this Rock type is formed through the sedimentation of different rocks and minerals fragment.

Using the principle of faunal succession, scientist can determine the age of rocks by the fossil flora and fauna embedded within them.

Explanation:

Carbon dating is a process which is done by the use of carbon 14 atom. It is a special type of atom which can easily help the scientist and expert to find out the age of the fossil of flora and fauna, rocks, animals, birds, etc.
