Answer:

Hardy Weinberg equilibrium states that in a population the amount of genetic variation remains constant from one generation to another generation in the absence of evolutionary disturbances.

They Hardy-Weinberg equation is:

p² +2pq + q² = 1

p       =  dominant alleles frequency (A)

q       =  recessive alleles frequency (a)

p²     =  dominant homozygous genotype frequency (AA)

q²     =  recessive homozygous genotype frequency (aa)

2pq  =  heterozygous genotype frequency (Aa)

p² and 2pq =  dominant phenotype frequency (A)

q²     =  recessive phenotype frequency (a)

Note: A or a is for example in which A represent the dominant allele while a represent the recessive allele.

Answer:

Explanation:

Hardy Weinberg equation is presented below and describes that in a population the frequency of alleles ad genotypes will remain static or the same in the absence of evolutionary disturbances such as mutation, migration ( gene flow), natural selection and with the population large and random mating

p² +2pq + q²

where p represents the frequency of the dominant alleles

q represent the frequency of the recessive alleles

p² represent the frequency of the dominant homozygous genotype

q² represent the frequency of the recessive homozygous genotype

2pq represent the frequency of the heterozygous genotype

q² also represent the frequency of the recessive phenotype

(p² + 2pq) represent the frequency of the dominant phenotype

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

I think she should try the experiment one set with fertilizer, and one without. The negative control group would be the set of rose bushes grown without the fertilizer, but under the exact same conditions as the experimental group. Then, if a difference is seen you can be sure it's accurate, since you tested with and without fertilizer under the same conditions. Sorry if i am wrong, I am not completly sure about this one. Again I might be wrong so sorry in advance.

In a large population of randomly breeding foxes, a dominant allele results in a soft, brown pelt, while a recessive allele resu
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The frequency of the recessive allele which codes for grey pelt character will rise above 20%, while the that of the dominant allele that confers brown pelt character will decrease below 80%.

Explanation:

Since the population of foxes with brown pelts are being selectively hunted by humans, the population of foxes with brown pelts will keep reducing while the population of foxes with grey pelt will thrive in its place.

<em>Hence, the the frequency of the recessive allele which confers grey pelt attribute will rise above original 20% within the population, while the dominant allele will decrease below 80%.</em>

Which of the following is a major disruptive of the carbon cycle
vichka [17]

If there were an interruption in the carbon cycle, life on Earth as we know it would be in danger of being disrupted. ... Without carbon dioxide, the plants would not do as well, and potentially die, creating a problem for all the animals on the planet, Since they have to breathe oxygen to live.
