The correct answer is D) 0,81

When there is Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium like in  this  case of a single locus with two alleles denoted A and a with frequencies f(A) = p and f(a) = q, the expected genotype frequencies under random mating are f(AA) = p² for the AA homozygotes, f(aa) = q² for the aa homozygotes, and f(Aa) = 2pq for the heterozygotes. And we have:

p²+2*p*q+q²= 1       <em>p+q= 1     p=1-q</em>

q= 0.1     p= 1-0.1= 0.9

p²=0.9²= 0.81

What is RFLP? What are some of the limitations of this technique?
bearhunter [10]
In molecular biology, restriction fragment length polymorphism, orRFLP, is a technique that exploits variations in homologous DNA sequences. It refers to a differencebetween samples of homologous DNAmolecules from differing locations ofrestriction enzyme sites, and to a related laboratory technique by which these segments can be illustrated. InRFLP analysis, the DNA sample is broken into pieces and (digested) byrestriction enzymes and the resultingrestriction fragments are separated according to their lengths by gel electrophoresis. Although now largely obsolete due to the rise of inexpensive DNA sequencing technologies, RFLP analysis was the first DNA profilingtechnique inexpensive enough to see widespread application. RFLP analysis was an important tool in genome mapping, localization of genes forgenetic disorders, determination of riskfor disease, and paternity testing.

Answer:

D. Hypothesis.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is defined as an idea or explanation which can be further tested through study and experiments. It is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon.

Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot be explained with the available scientific theories.

Which processes lead to the formation of the distorted, wavy patterns found in metamorphic rock?
irinina [24]
The process that lead to the formation of the distorted, wavy patterns found in metamorphic rock is regional metamorphism(as heat and pressure increases, minerals become segregated into bands).
