If grey feathers is a recessive trait, then 72.8% of the population is heterozygous for this trait.
Explanation:
The concept used here is of Hardy Weinberg principle, +2pq =1
The homozygous dominant genotypeis represented as = 84
Red = dominant
The homozygous recessive genotype trait is represented as = 16
grey = recessive
2pq = heterozygous individual
Thus for dominant homozygous the alleles are given as
p=
= 9.1
q =
= 4
for heterozygous individual 2pq
2 x 9.1 x 4
= 72.8
72.8% population is heterozygous for the trait.

Explanation:
Landfills are low-lying open areas specifically designed for the dumping of waste materials to be buried later.
Landfills can be for municipal/household wastes, industrial wastes, or for hazardous wastes. They are usually low lying to facilitate their burial after they must have been filled-up and they represent one of the oldest methods of disposing wastes.
<em>Landfills are not just open areas, they are low-lying as opposed to high-lying, and they are not created near rivers or lakes.</em>
<em>The correct option is, therefore, d. </em>
