The A1 allele is at a frequency of 0.3 in a population and the A2 allele is at a frequency of 0.7. A1 is dominant. What percent

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%

Yanni made a chart to compare the strong and weak forces. Which best describes Yanni’s error? Only the weak force is active in t
cluponka [151]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.

But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.

This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.

Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.

Why do we have life when there's death, and when we die it causes pain to others?
adell [148]
Life is a special thing. You have your time and when it is decided that you will pass on then you go to a special place un-known to our world. Sometimes it your death is accidental and sometimes it's because your time is up. But others have to accept when someone passes on because they should know, that there lived one is in great hands.
