"Assume that a man and a woman are phenotypically normal, but the woman is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion on chromosom

Answer:

Explanation:

Pericentric inversion results in chromosome have extra copies of some genes while some genes do not have copies. It can result in slow growth rate.

If a man is heterozygous of pericentric and a woman is heterozygous of pericentric although they do not show symptoms there is 25% chance that their offspring will have it and 50% chance of them being a carrier.

T t × T t will give TT T t T t t t

If the father is not heterozygous of it but the mother is heterozygous they have 0% chance of having it and 50% chance of being heterozygous a carrier of the disorder

T t × TT will give TT TT T t T t

In a sample population of people, 36% have the recessive trait of "free" earlobes (q2). What is the frequency of the dominant al
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Explanation

Given that 36% are recessive in traits

100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%

P=dominant allele

q= recessive allele

P2= dominant genotype

q2= recessive genotype

according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1

64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore

p2=0.64

then

P=√0.64

p= 0.8

Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8

The use of which material can substitute for copper and reduce copper mine production?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Glass

Explanation:

Copper is a good conductor of electricity and this is why it is used in electrical equipment to transmit electrons with the least resistance. Cable conductors are made of copper and used to transmit data. Copper is now being replaced by optic fiber that is made of glass. Instead of using electrons, fiber optic transmits data using photons – which transmits more data rate than copper.
