In a population of Mendel's garden peas, the frequency of the dominant A (yellow flower) allele is 80%. Let p represent the freq

uency of the A allele and q represent the frequency of the a allele. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what are the genotype frequencies?
A) 16% AA, 40% Aa, 44% aa
B) 75% AA, 15% Aa, 10% aa
C) 64% AA, 32% Aa, 4% aa
D) 80% AA, 10% Aa, 10% aa
E) 50% AA, 25% Aa, 25% aa

Answer:

C) 64% AA, 32% Aa, 4% aa

Explanation:

The frequency of dominant allele A is = 80% = 0.8

Since the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, p+ q =  1

Here, p= frequency of dominant allele

q = frequency of recessive allele

Given, p= 0.8

So, q = 1-p = 1-0.8= 0.2

Frequency of genotype AA = p2 = 0.8 x 0.8 = 0.64 = 64%

Frequency of genotype aa = q2 = 0.2 x 0.2 = 0.04 = 4%

Frequency of genotype Aa = 2pq = 2 x 0.8 x 0.2 = 0.32 = 32%

Mnenie [13.5K]

Penicillins disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis.

<h3>How does penicillin affect bacterial cell walls?</h3>
  • Penicillin kills bacteria by inhibiting the proteins which cross-link peptidoglycans in the cell wall .
  • When a bacterium divides in the presence of penicillin, it cannot fill in the “holes” left in its cell wall.
  • β-Lactam antibiotics, including penicillins, cephalosporins, monobactams, and carbapenems, are distinguished by a lactam ring in their molecular structure and act by inhibiting the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls.
  • Penicillins work by bursting the cell wall of bacteria. Drugs in the penicillin class work by indirectly bursting bacterial cell walls.
  • They do this by acting directly on peptidoglycans, which play an essential structural role in bacterial cells.

In people who are regularly physically active, extra fat consumed in the diet is stored first in In people who are regularly phy
Anton [14]

Answer:

In muscle tissue

Explanation:

People who exercise daily, their metabolism rate is very high and the consume sugar, proteins and fat as a substrate for providing ATP molecules. The ATP molecules are then utilized by the body to perform physical work.

The physically active people when they require fat in their diets, the fats first will be stored in the muscle tissue as the cells there will use fat as a substrate for providing a large amount of energy that is 1 g of fat will provide 9 kcal.

Thus, muscle tissue is the correct answer.

Suppose an experimenter becomes proficient with a technique that allows her to move DNA sequences within a prokaryotic genome.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

D) The structural genes will be transcribed continuously.

Explanation:

Suppose an experimenter becomes proficient with a technique that allows her to move DNA sequences within a prokaryotic genome.  If she moves the operator to the far end of the operon, past the transacetylase (lacA) gene, the structural genes will be transcribed continuously.

A structural gene is a gene that codes for any RNA or protein product other than a regulatory factor (i.e. regulatory protein).
