Q = recessive allele frequency = 0.3, and thus in H-W equilibrium there are ONLY two alleles, q (recessive) and
p (dominant). Therefore all of the p and q present for this gene in a population must account for 100% of this gene's alleles. And 100% = 1.00.
So p, the dominant allele frequency, must be equal to 1 - q --> p = 1 - q
p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7.
Since heterozygotes are a combination of the p and q, we must again look at the frequencies of each genotype: p + q = 1, then (p+q)^2 = 1^2
So multiplying out (p+q)(p+q) = 1, we get: p^2+2pq+q^2 = 1 (all genotypes), where p^2 = frequency of homozygous dominant individuals, 2pq = frequency of heterozygous individuals, and q^2 = frequency of homozygous recessive individuals.
Therefore if the population is in H-W equilibrium, then the expected frequency of heterozygous individuals = 2pq = 2(0.7)(0.3)
2pq = 2(0.21) = 0.42, or 42% of the population.
Hope that helps you to understand how to solve population genetics problems!
Answer: Option A) inhibits
GABA is a neurotransmitter that inhibits postsynaptic activity
Explanation:
Gamma amino butyric acid, GABA, is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in that, once released to the synapse, it inhibits or check muscular contractions by suspending further activity of the adjacent motor neuron.
Thus, by this mechanism, GABA inhibits postsynaptic activity
Answer:
According to the law of conservation of matter, matter is never created or destroyed but it can change from one form to another. Most of the biomass in a food web gets converted at each trophic level and it no longer remains apart of the food web. Most of the biomass is released into the atmosphere in the form of heat and hence cannot be transferred to the other trophic level. Also, matter is used up by the organism itself and converted into different forms. Most of the matter might get accumulated in the soil when the organisms of a trophic level die.
Answer:
The rate of photosynthesis would decrease and less glucose would be produced. ATP is considered to be an energy carrier molecule.
