Around a pond, there is a small population of turtles. Some of them have solid dark brown shells and some of them have yellow an

d brown shells with yellow spots. Spotted shells are dominant over solid shells. Six of the turtles are homozygous for the spotted shells, four are heterozygous and two are homozygous for the solid shells.
1. How many total alleles are there in this particular gene pool?

2. How many dominant alleles are there? Recessive?

3. Calculate the allele frequency for the dominant and the recessive allele.


4. If over time, due to a change in the environment, the solid dark brown shells became the advantageous color, what would likely happen to the frequencies of the gene pool?

5. If the allele frequency of a particular trait is 100 percent, describe the genetic variation for that trait in the population.

Answer:

1. 2 alleles, solid brown and spotted

2. 1 dominant, spotted, and one recessive, solid

3. Dominant: 16/24  Recessive: 8/24. Spotted- R, solid, r. There are 6 RR, 4 Rr and 2 rr.

4. It would slowly become more common and common. When a spotted and a solid pairs, its still most likely that the offspring will be spotted, however as most spotted die the number of spotted getting offsprings decrease.

5. No genetic variation, everyone in the population has that trait

a star's brightness if it were a standard distance from earth is its apparent brightness true or false
stepladder [879]

This is false. Absolute brightness is the term used to describe how bright a star would look if it were a standard distance from Earth. Apparent brightness is how bright it would look as far as it currently is from Earth. Hope this was helpful!

<h3>Who is called a victim?</h3>

A victim is someone who has been harmed physically or emotionally, has had property damaged, or has lost money as a result of a crime.

On the forward wall there is a zigzag pattern and on the walls to the right side, there is a linear pattern of droplets parallel to the floor at about the victim's height. No other marks are found on the other walls. so it might the person hitted by the blunt object so he layed down in and blood marks found in zigzag pattern.
