Answer:

p=0.9

Explanation:

The frequency of the different genotypes is as follows:

  • AA = 0.81
  • Aa = 0.18
  • aa = 0.01

There are 2 alleles for this gene, the dominant allele <em>A</em> appears twice in the homozygous dominant genotype and once in the heterozygous.

Then, the frequency of the <em>A </em>allele, <em>p</em>, can be calculated as:

p= freq(AA) + freq(Aa)/2

p= 0.81 + 0.18/2

p=0.9

Natalka [10]

Answer:

<em>between </em><em>an </em><em>animal</em><em> </em><em>cell </em><em>and </em><em>a </em><em>plant </em><em>cell </em><em>there </em><em>are </em><em>some </em><em>parts </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>are </em><em>similar</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>carry </em><em>out </em><em>the </em><em>same </em><em>function </em><em>like:</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>cell </em><em>membrane</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>selects </em><em>what </em><em>goes </em><em>in </em><em>the </em><em>cell.</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>cytoplasm</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>holds </em><em>the </em><em>protoplasm(</em><em>the </em><em>living</em><em> </em><em>part </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>cell)</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>nucleus</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>carries </em><em>out </em><em>all </em><em>cell </em><em>activities</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>holds </em><em>threads </em><em>of </em><em>DNA </em><em>called </em><em>chromosomes</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>mitochondria</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>power </em><em>house</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>cell</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>golgi </em><em>bodies </em><em>which </em><em>modify</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>carry </em><em>proteins</em><em> </em><em>from </em><em>sites </em><em>of </em><em>synthesis</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>sites </em><em>of </em><em>reaction</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em>
