Pasteur used tipped and untipped sterilized S-shaped flaks of broth in an attempt to

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Show that life can only come from life (rather than spontaneous generation)

Explanation:

Pasteur boiled a broth in a flask with an S-shaped neck. Thebend in the neck prevented particles from the air reaching the broth, but still allowed air to get in. No bacteria grew in the flask.

When the flask neck was broken so that particles could get inside, the broth became cloudy, showing that microorganisms were only able to grow from other living things from the outside, and not spontaneously from nothing

What distinguishes the savanna and grassland biomes? the aswer is a

elena-s [515]

Hello! THere are many differences between a grassland and a savanna. For one, a savanna is a grassland, however, A savanna is usually very dry. A savanna also has very few trees, while grasslands can be plush with many trees. Grasslands could also be in mountains while savannas are vast dryer lands with animals who live in dry weather. Grasslands also contain a lot of water sources like lakes, rivers, ponds, and savannas usually don't. Those are just a few o the many differences between them!

I hope this helped!

A) In the Dunker population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.3 and the frequency of i allele is 0.4. In the general population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.1 and the frequency of i allele is 0.5.

If:
$I^{A}$ - the frequency of IA allele
 $I^{B}$ - the frequency of IB allele
 $i$ - the frequency of i allele

Then:
 $I^{A} I^{A}$ + $I^{A} i$ - the frequency of individuals with A blood type
 $I^{B} I^{B}$ + $I^{B} i$ - the frequency of individuals with B blood type
 $ii$ - the frequency of individuals with O blood type

Let's first take a look on the Dunker population:
$I^{A} = 0.3$
$ii=0.16
$

Since there is only one possible genotype for O individuals - ii - the frequency of the allele i is square root of the frequency of O individuals:
 $i= \sqrt{ii}$
⇒ $i = \sqrt{0.16}$
⇒ $i=0.4$

Now, we have the frequencies of two alleles ( $I^{A}$ and $i$ ). To calculate the frequency of $I^{B}$ allele, we will use the formula:
 $I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1-0.3-0.4$
⇒ $I^{B} = 0.3$

Now, in the general population:
$I^{A} = 0.4$
$ii=0.25$

Similarly to the work for the Dunker population:
 $i= \sqrt{ii}$
⇒ $i = \sqrt{0.25}$
⇒ $i=0.5$

$I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i$
⇒ $I^{B} = 1-0.4-0.5$
⇒ $I^{B} = 0.1$


b) A founder effect is a result of geographical separation of a few individuals from the original population. Those founding individuals will form a new population. The Dunker population was not only geographically separated, but also genetically. The group interbreeding was present resulting in increasing those allele frequencies that were the most common in the founding population. In this case, the most individuals from the founding population had B blood type.
