Binomial nomenclature is the formal and accepted naming system used by scientists for naming living organisms. Scientists use binomial nomenclature instead of common names because binomial nomenclature gives distinct (noticeably different) names to a species in a genus. Binomial nomenclature provides every species with a two-part scientific name. The first name is the genus; the name of the small closely related group in which the organism belong to, while the second name is the specific epithet that helps to differentiate and identify a certain species from others that belongs to the same genus.

katrin [286]

Insoluble fiber: This type of fiber, such as the kind in wheat bran, reduces calcium absorption

Foods with high levels of oxalic acid include spinach, collard greens, sweet potatoes, rhubarb, and beans and this will interfere with calcium absorption.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

4% of the white population in the US are carriers of cystic fibrosis.

Explanation:

According to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, if q2 equals 1/2,500, then q equals .02, p equals .98, and 2pq equals approximately .04, or 4%.

Remember that the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation is <u>used when the population maintains its genetic variation constant</u>.
