Answer:
"How might different types of organisms--producers, consumers, decomposers--be important to a healthy ecosystem?" (Producers change energy into matter with chemical energy that other organisms can use and then consumers pass the matter and energy on to other organisms by eating and being eaten; decomposers recycle some ...
Explanation:
Answer:
1. How did the tidal wave affect the predicted frequencies of the alleles in the population?
No changes
2. What is the frequency of the recessive allele?
q= 0.6
Explanation:
If we assume that all individuals were equally likely to be wiped out, that means the frequency/ratio of the gene and genotype of the population will not change. The tidal wave killing 100 out of 200, so it simply makes the population become half of it used to be.
If the population at equilibrium, we can use the Hardy-Weinberg formula to find out the expected frequency of the dominant and recessive alleles. There are 36 homozygous recessives out of 100, so the frequency of the recessive allele will be:
q^2 = 36/100
q= √36/100= 6/10= 0.6
The cause of mutations in gene expressions are the changes of gene instructions that causes your protein to malfunction. The effect of mutations are the genes not being able to function properly and send the wrong codes/info to your cells.
