please show work Nerodia sipedon insularum is a species of the Northern Water Snake that lives on islands in the western part of

Lake Erie. This snake exhibits polymorphism (many color forms) and can be described as Banded (BB), intermediate (Bb) and unbanded (bb). The mainland populations of this snake are all banded. The islands have sandy shores which the snakes reside compared to rocky shores of the mainland. In 1980-1984, Richard King conducted a study of mark recapture to look at the numbers of each of these morphs of snakes and for the Island of Pelee this was the population size: Banded: 71 individuals; Intermediate: 80 individuals; Unbanded 20 individuals. Give the genotypic frequencies for each morph and then give the allele frequencies for this population.

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, the total population = 171 i.e (80+71+21)

Genetic frequency therefore; BB = 71/171 = 0.42

Bb = 80/171 = 0.47

bb = 20/171 = 0.12

Allele frequency therefore;

Allele B = 0.42+(0.50×0.47) = 0.66

Allele b = (0.50×0.47)+0.12 = 0.36

Note all values were rounded up to two significant figures

Human abo blood groups are determined by a single gene with 3 alleles: a, b, and o. in a sample of 300 individuals, 100 are bloo
KengaRu [80]
Allele frequency is determined by looking at the dominant and recessive allele of a genotype. 
Using the given, we can come up with the following computation for the allele frequency:
allele A = 100/300 allele B = 50/300 allele O = 150/300
Hence, the frequency of allele A is 0.33 or 33%, allele B is .17 or 17% and allele O is 0.50 or 50%.

Over time the cartilage in your body is replaced by solid bone and is usually complete by the time you stop growing.
algol13
True. Otherwise we would never stop growing although broken bones regain cartilage into solid bone when we break one but it doesn’t expand.

What parts of a nucleotide make up the backbone of a nucleic acid? pairs of nitrogen bases pairs of sugars sugar and nitrogen ba
mixer [17]
A DNA molecule consists of two strands of nucleotides twisted together to form a double helix. The sugar-phosphate backbone is found on the outside of this helix and the bases are found braching towards the middle. Hydrogen bonds join the thenitrogenous bases and hold the two strands together.

Therefore your answer is sugar and phosphate.
