Although selection operates against deleterious alleles in populations, they are rarely lost from these populations. For example

, most deleterious recessive alleles in population have equilibrium q values slightly above 0. Why might that be?

Answer:

Deleterious alleles appear sporadically in a population

Explanation:

A population with a deleterious allele will have no or few individuals that have the ability to pass along these traits. These alleles appear less in a population because of selective pressure but they are not always absent. The alleles appear less often but are are not always passed on and the others that are genetically fit are able to pass along their genes. The reason the population equilibrium is not zero is because these alleles do appear but they are not necessarily passed along. These individuals may not be able to reproduce or reach the age of reproduction.

Deleterious alleles appear more often, making individuals less fit genetically, i.e. they pass fewer copies of their genes to future generations. Put another way, natural selection purges the deleterious alleles.

Because of symptoms and age, we would consider some diagnosis of bronchitis due to RSV infection, pneumonia because of Haemophilus influenza infections, and pertussis infection including apnea. Here I can say the answer is pneumonia due to infection of Haemophilus influenza.
The kind of treatment we can give depending on my diagnosis are; high dosage of oral erythromycin to clear the infection bacteria, supportive therapies in hospital in order to maintain blood oxygen levels and in open airways, low dosage of erythromycin which is given intravenously to clear the infection of bacteria which I can say it is the best treatment.
Some of the treatment for the infant to diminish such infection chances are MMR vaccines, toxin antiserum DTaP vaccine, influenza shot which I can recommend for the infant.
The best reason I can say about these conditions and symptoms are associated with pneumonia whereby we can say the low dose of erythromycin which is given intravenously is effective. The best prophylactic treatment is influenza shots.

Describe how algal blooms form.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Algal blooms occur when algae multiply very quickly. Blooms can form in waters that are rich in the nutrients the algae need to grow, such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and iron. ... Blooms may become more frequent as the earth warms and the levels of nutrients in our waters increase.

Answer:

Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction

Explanation:

this is an incomplete question in the first place, i saw the complete format online hence the answer am giving here.

Before any C2H5CO2CH3 is or was removed, the system is said to be in equilibrium.

This means that the rate of consumption of reactants and rate of generation of products are greater than zero and are equal, that means that both the forward and backward reactions are occurs at these rate.
