The gene frequency for a particular trait in a population was determined to be 80% A (dominant allele) and 20% a (recessive alle

le). Fifty years later, the gene frequency was determined to be 60% A and 40% a. What does this change most likely indicate about the gene pool?

Answer:

Explanation:

Microevolution is a change in the frequency of gene variants, alleles, in a population, typically occurring over a relatively short time period.

Population genetics is the field of biology that studies allele frequencies in populations and how they change over time.

Allele frequency refers to how common an allele is in a population. It is determined by counting how many times the allele appears in the population then dividing by the total number of copies of the gene.

The gene pool of a population consists of all the copies of all the genes in that population.

What's the balanced equation for nitric acid + aluminium oxide = aluminium nitrate + water ​
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Al₂O₃ + 6HNO₃ → 2Al(NO₃)₃ + 3H₂O

Explanation:

      left side of arrow      right side of arrow

Al               2                             1

O               3                             1

H                1                             2

NO₃           1                              3

Al₂O₃ + 6HNO₃ → 2Al(NO₃)₃ + 3H₂O

now there are,

      left side of arrow      right side of arrow

Al               2                             2

O                3                             3

H                6                            6

NO₃            6                            6

you have to try and multiply different numbers and stop when you have equal molecule  on both sides of the arrow.

1. Though Florida receives a lot of rainfall, only 1 percent remains available for people to use or drink. What happens to the r
telo118 [61]
<span>
1. Although the state of Florida receives a lot of rainfall, about 61 percent of that water leaves the ground by evaporation and transpiration, and another 38 percent is ‘lost’ into the Atlantic Ocean & Gulf of Mexico, thus leaving only 1 percent of the rainfall water available for drinking and other human use. 

 2. Florida has a very vast underground water system, known as the Floridan aquifer system; for this reason, Florida is the source of drinking water to four other states. These states are South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. The Floridan underground water system is made up of the Upper and Lower Floridan aquifers.

3. Residents of the state of Florida wanted to get rid of the water in certain areas of the state because there was too many wetlands, they experienced frequent flooding which posed a great measure of difficulty in navigating the state.

4. One negative result of the changes made by people in order to get rid of the ‘excess’ water in Florida was groundwater depletion which has led to the drying up of wells, decrease in water level in streams and lakes, reducing quality of water and land subsidence.

5. One thing that has been done to try and improve those mistakes is Rainwater harvesting; a method which is often used to replenish ground water. Using the rainwater harvesting approach, an outlet pipe is connected from the rooftop and used to divert the rainwater to existing wells.

Active transport is the process by which dissolved molecules move across a cell membrane from a lower to a higher concentration. In active transport, particles move against the concentration gradient - and therefore require an input of energy from the cell.
