The answer is 0.47 or 47%.
Let's first distinguish some terms and their frequencies.
R - the dominant allele that causes red eyes
r - the recessive allele that causes green eyes
Since R is dominant over r, lizards with at least one dominant R allele will have red eyes. Therefore, the genotypes and the phenotypes are as following:
genotypes - phenotypes
RR - the lizards with red eyes
Rr - the lizards with red eyes
rr - the lizards with green eyes
Now, we will use some Hardy-Weinberg equations:
p + q = 1
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
where:
p - the frequency of dominant allele R
q - the frequency of recessive allele r
p² - the frequency of lizards with genotype RR
2pq - the frequency of lizards with genotype Rr
q² - the frequency of lizards with genotype <span>rr
</span>
We are interested in <span>the frequency p of the dominant R allele.
</span>So, we have the frequency (72%) of the lizards that have red eyes. However, lizards with genotypes RR and Rr will have red eyes. Since their frequencies are p² and 2pq, respectively, we have:
p² and 2pq = 72% = 72/100 = 0.72
Now, use this in the equation p² + 2pq + q² = 1:
0.72 + q² = 1
q² = 1 - 0.72 = 0.28
From here, we will calculate q and later p using the formula p + q = 1:
q² = 0.28
q = √0.28 = 0.53
p + q = 1
p + 0.53 = 1
p = 1 - 0.53
p = 0.47
It is Guard Cells I think
A simple word equation that can be used to describe the process of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen + water. A balanced chemical equation for the process can be written as 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2. Overall, photosynthesis uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide into a carbohydrate
Your chances for tossing a head instead of a tail would be 50:50.
I believe the part of the cell theory you can use to refute his claim is that cells are the smallest unit of life and more importantly that all cells come from other living cells.
