A) 16% AA, 40% Aa, 44% aa
B) 75% AA, 15% Aa, 10% aa
C) 64% AA, 32% Aa, 4% 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%

How do strides indicate whether the walker is a male or female?
ZanzabumX [31]
Females usually have smaller foot prints and they usually step in a pigeon toed manner with a smaller stride. However males, usually walks with a straightforward foot or quite tilted outwards.

Stride is defined as to walk long though extending steps.  Women also walks gracefully they tend to walk femininely by swinging they hips and walking with short steps. In contrast, men's hip is quite stiffed when walking and takes longer steps when walking.
