The tributaries carry small amounts of salt into the lake

<u>Explanation</u>:

The Greatest salt lake is one of the most saline inland water body in the world.The water carried to this lake by the tributaries is very less as compared to the amount  of the salt present in the lake. Rest part of the salt remains in the lake as such.

When the water from the lake gets evaporated, it leaves behind the salt. When time passes by, or years of inflow and evaporation salts they gets deposited layer over layer. The amount of salt added leads to formation of new minerals on the sea floor.

Assumptions:
1. Equilibrium has been reached for the allele proportions
2. Absence of <span>evolutionary influences such as </span>mate choice<span>, </span>mutation<span>, </span>selection<span>, </span>genetic drift<span>, </span>gene flow<span> and </span>meiotic drive<span>.
</span>
Defining L=long stem, l=short stem, and L is dominant over l.
f(x) = frequency of allele x  (expressed as a fraction of population)
Then the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law applies:
p^2+2pq+q^2=1
where 
f(LL)=p^2
f(Ll)=2pq
f(ll)=q^2

Given f(ll)=0.35=q^2, we have
q=sqrt(0.35)=0.591608
p=1-q=0.408392
=>
f(Ll)
=2pq
=2*0.408392*0.591608=0.483216
= proportion of heterozygous population

Answer: percentage of heterozygous population is 48.32%

Scarlet king snakes cannot camouflage and so instead they mimic a dangerous neighbor. Scarlet king snakes have evolved over the years to look like coral snakes so that they could scare away other predators that may be dangerous and would want to hurt them

this is the reason

----- now the simplified answer

the scarlet snake has a very random ( rare ) genetic variation , it mimcs or

( behaves a like or looks like  coral snake ) , it turns out that this trait  helps the snake high chance of survival, snake with this kind of trait are often likely to reproduce and pass their traits to their children

now most of the scarlet snakes have this trait

trait ;  a distinguishing quality or characteristic, typically one belonging to a person.

telo118 [61]
The answer is epididymis.
Epididymis is a tightly coiled mass of thin tubes that carries sperm from the testes to the ductus deferens in the ale reproductive system. Sperms matures as they pass through the epididymis so that they are ready to fertilize ova by the time they enter the ductus deferens.  During the ejaculation stage of emission sperms are moved from the testes and the epididymis, where they are stored, to the beginning of urethra.
