What will most likely happen if the gene frequencies in a given population remain constant?

1 answer:

7 0

When gene frequencies stay relatively constant, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium occurs. HW equilibrium occurs in large populations with random mating, with no migration, mutation, or natural selection. In this case, the proportion of dominant homozygous equals the square of the frequency of the dominant allele (p2), the proportion of recessive homozygous equals the square of the frequency of the recessive allele (q2) and the proportion of heterozygotes equals 2pq.

How might a carbon atom from a orange peel in a trash can for a week, end up in an animal's lungs? (Think of how during cellular

defon

Answer:

An orange peel in a trash will start to decompose.

The carbon atoms will be released into the air as a result of decomposition.

These carbon atoms will be converted into carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Plants will take in this carbon dioxide for making food by the process of photosynthesis.

When animals will consume the pants, the carbon products will be accumulated int he body of the animals. Some of the carbon will be converted into carbon dioxide in the animals and will pass out of the animal's body through respiration.
