Some of the conditions that must be met for a population or an allele to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:

1. The population must be very large.

2. There must be no migration and population must be isolated.

3. There must be no mutations.

4. There must be random mating, which means there are no mating preferences.


So, a population will not be at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium if it is small, or there are mutations, which is not mentioned, but mutations are expected to occur. Also, although there is a large mountain, skunks can migrate to some other area of a woodland. So, probable mutations and migrations suggest that the population is not at <span>Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium.</span>

The flow of energy starts in in you arms. You put your hands together, and use your arms to move your hands back and forth, this is kinetic energy. Your hands rubbing together causes the molecules to bump into each other, this is friction. As the molecules bump into each other they begin to move faster, and the fast movements of the molecules is what creates heat.

Give reasons :
lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) It is dangerous to wear nylon clothes while cooking because it is a synthetic cloth and they catch fire easily also they can stick on our body which is very painful.

b) Cotton is a natural product. And unlike synthetic fibres, it is more absorbent. The towel hence has high absorbency.

c) Nylon and polyester are two fabrics most commonly used in raincoats and umbrellas. They are not absorbent the way natural fibers are. They naturally resist waterlogging, and can be made waterproof.

Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

Correct Answer: No change in serum glucocorticoid level

Response Feedback:Primary adrenal insufficiency would be indicated when the adrenal cortex fails to produce cortisol when synthetic ACTH is administered. Serum cortisol levelswould increase following ACTH administration if the adrenal cortex is functioning properly. Primary adrenal insufficiency occurs when there is no change in the serum glucocorticoid level.
