Answer:

Frequency of BBBB genotype = 0.68

Frequency of BBBG genotype = 0.2

Frequency of BGBG genotype = 0.12

Explanation:

Genotype frequency = number of individuals of that genotype/ total number of individuals

In this population three types of individuals are present: blue, turquoise and green.

Frequency of BBBB genotype (blue) = 170/ ( 170 + 50 + 30)

= 170/250

= 0.68

Frequency of BBBG genotype (turquoise) = 50/250

= 0.2

Frequency of BGBG genotype (green) = 30/250

= 0.12

How do sediment deposits affect waterwats
makvit [3.9K]
<span>The deposition of heavy sediment can significantly diminish the water quality and aquatic habitat.  The sentiment in the water can reduce the sunlight that reaches the floor of the waterway, affecting animal and plant life. For example, photosynthesis may be less effective due to the decreased sunlight and the gills of fish may get clogged from the sediment.</span>

The germ cell has 2 sets of chromosomes, and the four gametes will each have one set of chromosomes. ​​​​​​​ To have enough DNA
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. Halved

B. Doubled (x2)

C. Quadrupled (x4)

D. Octupled (x8)

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Via the process of meiosis, gametes are formed in order for sexual reproduction to occur. However, the chromosomal content of the gametes are reduced by half. According to this question, a germ cell is said to have 2 sets of chromosomes i.e. diploid, meaning that each daughter cell after meiosis will have one set of chromosome (haploid, n).

However, before any form of division can occur, the DNA (genetic material) of the cell must be replicated i.e. doubled in order to ensure that each resulting gamete has enough chromosomes. This is applicable in this question as well as the DNA in the germ cell must be DOUBLED (×2) via replication in order to have enough DNA for each gamete.
