Answer: The correct answer is- E) structural framework.

Fibrous proteins are water insoluble, elongated filamentous like structures that that provide structural framework ( they have special types of helices in their structures) to the cells or tissues of organisms.

They contain repetitive amino acid sequences in their structure that provides strength to the structure.

They are very less sensitive to any change in pH, temperature, as well as enzymatic digestion.

They are usually involved in the formation of connective tissue.

Example of fibrous protein- Actin, myosin, elastin, keratin.

Answer:

a. the environmental variance (VE) = 3.5 g ²

b. 17.5 g ² for population

c. the heritability of broad sense (H2) = 0.83

Explanation:

a.With the information we have we can infer that environmental factors influence A, which is considered isogenic, thus, the environmental variance (VE) = 3.5 g ²

b.When studying population B, comparing it without environmental changes with respect to population A, we found that its total variance (VT) = 21.0g ²

We generate the following formula with the data obtained previously to find the genetic variation

VT = VE + VG

then VG = VT-VE

replacing data:

VG = 21.0 - 3.5 = 17.5 g ² for population

c. Regarding the heritability of broad sense (H2) in population B, we can reach the result with the data previously obtained like this:

H2 = VG / VT = 17.5 / 21.0 = 0.83
