In a population that is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, 64% of the individuals express the recessive phenotype for a particular g

ene locus. What is the expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population?
Biology
1 answer:
Degger [83]3 years ago

Answer:

Expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population = 80%

Explanation:

Given -

Recessive phenotype expressed by an individuals for a particular gene locus is 64%

Now as per Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, the frequency of individual with recessive phenotype is represented by "q^{2}"

where "q" is the frequency for recessive allele.

Thus,

q = \sqrt{q^2} \\= \sqrt{0.64} \\= 0.8\\

Expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population = 80%

What 3 molecules that aren't DNA helps us learn about evolution?
max2010maxim [7]
We know, DNA is the main molecule by which scientists can learn about evolution by comparing the DNA structure between two different organisms. 
But, in addition to DNA (which is most helpful & important) still, there are 3 molecules that can help us, They are:

1) RNA : - It is found in cytoplasm, as DNA transfers it's codes into RNA during Central dogma, it can help us in evolution studies.

2) Proteins: - Another helpful feature, into which RNA transforms in Central Dogma.

3) Pseudogenes: - It is also known as "Non-coding DNA" It is extra <span>DNA in a genome that do not get transcribed into RNA to synthesize proteins. They can also help us in Evolutionary studies.

Hope this helps!</span>

Clathrin coated vesicles bud from eukaryotic plasma membrane fragments when adaptor proteins, clathrin and dynamin-GTP are added
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: Clathrin cages assemble, vesicles form but cannot be pinched of but no disassembly occurs so the vesicles remain coated in clathrin.

Explanation:

Endocytosis is a cellular mechanism that allows the introduction of extracellular material into the cell. Clathrin-coated vesicles act to incorporate different molecules that are recognized by specific proteins located in the clathrin-coated pits. Upon invagination of a portion of the plasma membrane, the material is transported to its final intracellular destination.

<u>Clathrin is a protein that forms the lining of cell membrane microcavities where various receptors are located. Once a particle is recognized by the receptors, invagination of the plasma membrane occurs, which then fuses to form an endocellular vesicle.</u> When vesicle budding occurs, the vesicle is detached from its attachment to the membrane with the help of a GTPase protein called dynamin. Then, the vesicle is freed from clathrin by the action of a type of ATP-ase called Hsp70-ATP and docks to late endosomes that are immediate precursors of lysosomes, fusing the membranes of both. The fission of the clathrin-coated vesicle is controlled by the GTPase dynamin and it has been proposed that dynamin acts by generating the necessary force to strangle the "neck" and cleave the vesicles from the membrane. So they are mainly involved in the cleavage of newly formed vesicles from the membrane of one cell compartment, their orientation, and their fusion with another compartment. Also, without the dynamin, vesicles are not freed from clathrin.

<u>In the absence of dynamin, vesicles are formed but the membrane fusion or pinching off will not occur. Then, invaginated coated pits will be found.</u>

Can small trees contribute oxygen?
il63 [147K]
Yes, because even though other trees produce more oxygen, the small trees will still produce some oxygen. On top of this there are more small trees than big trees, so even though they make less oxygen, in whole they end up making more when added together!
