After graduation, you and 19 friends build a raft, sail to a deserted island, and start a new population, totally isolated from
Softa [21]

Answer:

Incidence of cystic fibrosis on the island= 0.0025

Explanation:

According to the given information, the population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium which means that the allele frequencies would be maintained over generations.  

Given that total population size is = 20

Total number of alleles = 20 x 2 = 40 (since human are diploid, each individual has two alleles for one gene).  

Out of total 19 people, only two are heterozygous for cystic fibrosis which means that out of total 40 alleles, the number of recessive allele for cystic fibrosis is = 2

Frequency of recessive allele (q)= 2/ 40 = 0.05

Frequency of cystic fibrosis genotype (q^2) = 0.05 x 0.05 = 0.0025

Therefore, incidence of cystic fibrosis on the island would be = 0.0025

Explain why a microscope capable of high magnification and high resolution would be needed to diagnose malaria
Scilla [17]

Using the thick blood film to detect malaria enables observation od parasite morphology and it is used to quantify and identify parasites to the species level. For that kind of detection a high-power microscope (400 times to 1,000 times magnification) is required. The microscopist can look for parasites in a relatively large volume of blood, thus increasing the sensitivity of the test.
