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%

Ainat [17]
A fever is an abnormal elevation of the body temperature. A low to moderate fever, when a low to moderate fever, when allowed to run its course, can be beneficial. fever can promote interferon activity. Fever can also accelerate tissue repair. lastly, fever will inhibit the reproduction of bacteria and viruses. 
It is important to note that fever is not an illness, however, it is a symptom, or sign that your body is fighting an illness or infection. Fever stimulates the body's defenses, sending white blood cells and other "fighter" cells to fight and destroy the cause of the infection.

The main action of antidiuretic hormone is
Serjik [45]
Antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorbtion by stimulating insertion of "water channels" or aquaporins into the membranes of kidney tubules. These channels transport solute-free water through tubular cells and back into blood, leading to a decrease in plasma osmolarity and an increase osmolarity of urine.
