Volgvan

Out of the following given choices;

a. Drink additional water to prevent dehydration.

b. Eat something with 15 g of simple carbohydrates.

c. Go to the first aid station to have glucose checked.

d. Take another dose of the oral agent.

The answer is B. The stated symptoms are symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). The exercises drained glucose from her blood as the muscles used up the glucose in respiration. Since diabetics have flawed insulin protein that is incapable of enabling cells take up glucose and hepatocytes to make glucose, the blood sugar levels drop to critical levels that threaten body functions.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

q = 0.42

Explanation:

This question is an example of Hardy-Weinberg question and there are two equations necessary to carry out this question;

p + q = 1

p² + 2pq + q² = 1

where;

p = the frequency of the dominant allele

q = the frequency of the recessive allele

p² = the frequency of individuals with homozygous dominant genotype

2pq = the frequency of individuals with heterozygous genotype

q² = frequency of individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype

Since the total population = 425

q² = $\frac{individuals with recessive genotype}{Total Population}$

= $\frac{75}{425}$

q² = 0.1765

To find q; we need to square root both side to eliminate the square from q².

∴ $\sqrt{q^2}=\sqrt{0.1765}$

q = 0.4201

q = 0.42 (to two decimal places)
