An increase in the permeability of the cells of the collecting tubule to water is due to a(n) ________.
OLga [1]
An increase in the permeability of the cells of the collecting tubule to water is due to an increase in production of ADH. Hormone ADH also called vasopressin is responsible for regulating the amount of water in the blood and is released from the pituitary gland based on signals from the hypothalamus, which detects the water levels of the blood. When too much water is in the blood, the hormone release is decreased and more water is excreted in the kidneys and thus increasing urine output.

In a hypothetical population of 2500 people, 2275 people have brown eyes and 225 people have blue eyes (the homozygous-recessive
aev [14]

Answer:

In the next generation of 4000 children, 1680 of them will be heterozygous for the eye colour.

Explanation:

There's a population of 2500, 2275 of with have brown eyes and 225 blue eyes. <u>Let's call the dominant allele associated with brown colour "B" and the recessive allele associated with blue colour "b"</u>. So the possible genotypes are BB, Bb and bb, being BB and Bb brown eyed individuals and bb blue eyed individuals.

If the population it's in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it means genotypic and allelic frequencies don't change from one generation to the following.

From the information given, we can calculate both allelic and genotypic frequencies.

First, we know that the frequency of the genotype bb it's the amount of blue eyed individuals over the total population.

  • f(bb)=225/2500=0.09

Additionally we know the allelic frequencies can be related to the genotypic ones when the population it's in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Particularly we can say:

  • f(bb)=[f(b)]^2 => f(b)=[f(bb)]^(1/2)= 0.3 <em>(square root of f(bb)).</em>

Also, we can calculate the frequency of the B allele, as the probability of all alleles of the gene sum 1. In other words:

f(b)+f(B)=1 => f(B)=1 - f(b) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

So far, we have calculated the allelic frequencies, f(b)=0.3 and f(B)=0.7.

Now we can calculate the genotypic frequencies, using the equations of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

  • f(bb)=[f(b)]^2 => f(bb)=0.3^2=0.09
  • f(Bb)=2*f(B)*f(b) => f(Bb)=2*0.7*03=0.42
  • f(BB)=[f(B)]^2 => f(BB)=0.7^2=0.49

Finally, knowing that there are 4000 children in the next generation, to know how many of them are expected to be heterozygous for the eye colour, we should multiply the number of children for the probability of being heterozygous for the eye colour (which is the genotypic frequency for the genotype Bb).

  • Nº of heterozygous individuals = f(Bb)*total population= 0.42*4000
  • => Nº of heterozygous individuals =1680
