Explain the role of bacteria in the nitrogen cycle
Oksanka [162]

Bacteria is important because this bacteria binds hydrogen molecules with the gaseous nitrogen to form ammonia in the soil.  During assimilation, or when plants take up nitrates from the soil, bacteria aid in the process with the plants in making ammonia. Animal wastes is also a major place where bacteria thrives and produces ammonia. The process in which assimilation occurs in plants, and then bacteria converts the nitrates to ammonia is called ammonification.  From the conversion of ammonia to nitrites, bacteria also aids in this process called nitrification. The nitrifying bacteria mostly present in soils, oxidize ammonia into nitrites, and from nitrites to nitrates.

Finally, the process of denitrification also has bacteria present to aid in converting nitrates back into a gaseous form of nitrogen in the atmosphere.

Genrish500 [490]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

You are studying a population of ground squirrels. You trap 100 individuals and find 9 that have a light colored coat and the rest have a dark coat. You know that light coat color is recessive in ground squirrels. What is the allele frequency for the light coat allele  and the dark coat allele? How many of the dark coated individuals do you expect to be heterozygotes at the coat color gene? Assume the population is at H-W equilibrium.

Answer: Allele frequency for light coat: q = 0.3;

              Allele frequency for dark coat: p = 0.7;

             There will be 42 heterozygote;

Explanation: A population in H-W equilibrium is a population which doesn't change from one generation to the next if there are no disturbing factors, as migration or mutation.

It follows the equation: p^{2}+2pq+q^{2}=1.

p represents the frequency of the dominant allele;

q represents the frequency of the recessive allele;

2pq represents heterozygote individuals;

The sum of frequencies of both alleles must be 1, i.e.: p+q=1

For the population of squirrels:

  • Frequency of recessive allele

q^{2} = \frac{9}{100}

q = \sqrt{\frac{9}{100}}

q = 0.3

  • Frequency of dominant allele

p+q=1

p=1-q

p=1-0.3

p = 0.7

  • Frequency of heterozygote

2pq = 2*0.7*0.3 = 0.42

In a population of 100 individuals: 0.42*100 = 42

The allele frequency for the light coat is 0.3; for the dark coat is 0.7.

It is expected to have 42 heterozygote individuals in this population.

Is mitosis involved with two sets of nuclear divisions
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

NO. Mitosis involves one set of nuclear division and results in two nuclei that are exactly the same as the original. On the other hand, meiosis involves two sets of nuclear divisions.

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division normally occurring at the sites of growth and development of new tissues and also at sites of repair. It also occurs during asexual reproduction of organisms. Each mitotic cell division is a process that follows distinct phases.

Each mitotic division results in the formation of two daughter cells which are genetically identical to the parent cell, that is they have the same number and type of chromosomes as the parent cell.

During telophase, a nucleolus develops in the nucleus of each daughter cell. The cytoplasm divides in the process called cytokinesis. An invagination develops and finally splits the cell into two daughter cell each with its own nucleus and cytoplasm.
