of the population would you expect to be expressing A1 if the population were at hardy Weinberg equilibrium? 75%,51%,3%,30%,49%, or 9%?

Answer:

The correct answer would be 51%

Hardy Weinberg equation can be expressed as

p² +2pq +q² = 1

  • where p is the frequency of dominant allele
  • q is the frequency of recessive allele
  • p² is the frequency of homozygous dominant genotype
  • q² is the frequency of homozygous recessive genotype
  • 2pq is the frequency of heterozygous genotype.

Now, frequency of allele A1 (dominant allele) = p = 0.3

and frequency of allele A2 (recessive allele) = q = 0.7

Being dominant in nature, A1 allele will be expressed in homozygous dominant as well as heterozygous condition.

Hence frequency of dominant genotype or A1 allele expression

= p² + 2pq

= (0.3)² + 2(0.3)(0.7)

= 0.09 + 0.42

= 0.51

Conversion in to percentage = (0.51/1) x 100 = 51%

What are telomeres and what is there role in cell death?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Telomeres cap and protect the ends of chromosomes from degradation and illegitimate recombination. ... Abolition of telomerase activity in such cells nevertheless results in telomere shortening, a process that eventually destabilizes the ends of chromosomes, leading to genomic instability and cell growth arrest or death.

The answer is 'sensory adaptation'. This happens when your sensory system senses a constant stimulus. After a short while, your sensory system will respond less, and then won't respond at all. This is to allow adaption to your environment. For example, if you live above a subway system, you will eventually become used to the sound of underground trains and vibration, and eventually you won't notice it at all..
