Adenine located on the leading strand of DNA,
Answer:
B. The allele frequency of T is 0.84, and the allele frequency of t is 0.16.
Explanation:
The Hardy-Weinberg equation is:
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Where:
p = the frequency of the dominant allele
q = the frequency of the recessive allele
1 = the total number of alleles
Given that 16 individuals out of 100 are unable to taste PTC, we can calculate that the frequency of the recessive allele, q, is 0.16. We can then use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to solve for the frequency of the dominant allele, p:
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
p2 + 2p(0.16) + (0.16)2 = 1
p2 + 0.32p + 0.0256 = 1
p2 + 0.32p - 0.9144 = 0
(p + 0.32)(p - 2.84) = 0
p = -0.32 or p = 2.84
Since the allele frequencies must add up to 1, we know that p cannot equal -0.32. This leaves us with p = 2.84. Therefore, the allele frequency of the dominant allele is 2.84, and the allele frequency of the recessive allele is 0.16.
Ovalbumin is the component of egg white which is responsible for foam formation.
Ovalbumin is the main protein component of the egg white and it is responsible for creating the foam structure when the egg whites are beaten. The physical stress caused by beating the egg white, causes the protein ovalbumin to denature and unfold. This denaturation, along with the mixing of air in the egg white, causes the formation of foam.

Explanation:
Because baldness is a sex-linked trait.
In other words, men are simply more likely to express the trait for baldness than women are, because they only need one set of genes for baldness, while women need two.
If, for example, for each gene there is a 1/2 chance that the gene will be for baldness and 1/2 that it will not, then men have a 1/2 chance (because 1/2^1 = 1/2) of being bald, while women have a 1/4 chance (because 1/2^2 = 1/4) of being bald.
This is the reason it's called "male-pattern baldness": it is more common in males. However, this does not explain nor rule out the dearth of women with baldness-women can get it too: it's just less common
