Answer:

t describes Linus Pauling's contribution to the understanding of DNA structure?

Having first discovered the spiral shape of proteins, Linus Pauling used x-ray technology to hypothesize that the DNA molecule consisted of two consistently spaced strands that formed a spiral shape.

Linus Pauling studied DNA base pairing.

Having originally studied proteins, Pauling proposed that DNA was a three-chained helix with a sugar-phosphate backbone at the center and bases sticking out from the backbone.

Linus Pauling conducted experiments to prove that DNA carried genetic information.

Directional selection acting upon a beneficial recessive allele will take longer to push this allele to fixation than for a bene
Anettt [7]

Answer:

It's true...

Explanation:

Under the light of Mendel's laws of segregation and independent assortment, the ratio of the hetrozygous alleles always remain constant no matter what the circumstances are.

In the case of a dominant allele, it is very easy to be selected even when joined with a recessive part because that's the way of nature and in hetereozygous condition only the dominant phenotype appears and recessive expression gets masks din the process. It means it requires only one dominant parent to be major in the population. However, in the case of recessive allele, it's phenotype only appears when both of the parent recessive alleles are equally participating. That's why the recessive population is very low due to less rational selection.
