False. The myocardium receives oxygen from the coronary arteries. Coronary arteries are found on the outside of the heart and supply oxygenated blood to the heart tissue.
Answer:
0.2 (or 20%)
Explanation:
The allele frequency can be calculated by counting how many times an allele appears in a population and then by dividing this number by the total number of alleles of the gene. In this case,
- Genotype BB = 30 moths >> 60 copies of the B allele
- Genotype Bb= 12 grey moths >> 12 copies of the B allele and 12 copies of the b allele
- Genotype bb= 3 white moths >> 6 copies of the b allele
The total number of copies of the gene is:
Dominant (B) allele = 60 (BB genotype) + 12 (Bb genotype) = 72 B alleles
Recessive (b) allele = 12 (Bb genotype) + 6 (bb genotype) = 18 B alleles
Then, 72 + 18 = 90 alleles
Allele frequencies:
Dominant (B) allele = 72/90 = 0.8 (or 80 %)
Recessive (b) allele = 18/90 = 0.2 (or 20%)
People with two copies of the sickle cell gene have the disease. People who carry only one copy of the sickle cell gene do not have the disease, but may pass the gene on to their children. Abnormal hemoglobin, called hemoglobin S, causes sickle cell disease (SCD). The problem in hemoglobin S is caused by a small defect in the gene that directs the production of the beta globin part of hemoglobin. This small defect in the beta globin gene causes a problem in the beta globin part of hemoglobin, changing the way that hemoglobin works.
Answer:
Animals are made up of eukaryotic cells, meaning they have a nucleus which contains the DNA. :)
