Answer:
For example, the allele frequency of the mutant cystic fibrosis allele among Caucasians is 0.025, while the frequency of the normal allele is 0.975.

The correct answer is B. tundra. Hope this helped.
A) Each DNA nucleotide is made up of a sugar, a phosphate group ... Adenine and thymine are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and cytosine and guanine are ... In the case of RNA, the five-carbon sugar is ribose. DNA is made up of two strands that are twisted around each other to form a right-handed helix, called a double helix. Base-pairing takes place between a purine and pyrimidine: namely, A pairs with T, and G pairs with C. In other words, adenine and thymine are complementary base pairs, and cytosine and guanine are also complementary base pairs. This is the basis for Chargaff’s rule; because of their complementarity, there is as much adenine as thymine in a DNA molecule and as much guanine as cytosine. Adenine and thymine are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and cytosine and guanine are connected by three hydrogen bonds. The two strands are anti-parallel in nature; that is, one strand will have the 3′ carbon of the sugar in the “upward” position, whereas the other strand will have the 5′ carbon in the upward position. The diameter of the DNA double helix is uniform throughout because a purine (two rings) always pairs with a pyrimidine (one ring) and their combined lengths are always equal.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
When an area is holoendemic, the HbS allele frequency is between 0.52 and 4.04.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>HbS allele is the sickle cell hemoglobin allele that provides immunity to malaria. This is because people with the sickle cell allele have a selective advantage in areas where there is a high incidence of malaria.</u></em>
- Therefore, natural selection will favor the population with HbS allele in a Malaria holoendemic (most individuals are infected) region. The HbS allele frequency in this population is expected to be high.
- After malaria is cured, the frequency of the HbS allele should decrease in regions with a lot of mosquitoes because having one copy of the HbS allele will no longer be advantageous in these regions.
