Hardy-Weinberg Equation (HW) states that following certain biological tenets or requirements, the total frequency of all homozygous dominant alleles (p) and the total frequency of all homozygous recessive alleles (q) for a gene, account for the total # of alleles for that gene in that HW population, which is 100% or 1.00 as a decimel. So in short: p + q = 1, and additionally (p+q)^2 = 1^2, or 1 So (p+q)(p+q) algebraically works out to p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1, where p^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous dominant individuals, 2pq = genotype frequency of heterozygous individuals, and q^2 = genotype frequency of homozygous recessive individuals. The problem states that Ptotal = 150 individuals, H frequency (p) = 0.2, and h frequency (q) = 0.8. So homozygous dominant individuals (HH) = p^2 = (0.2)^2 = 0.04 or 4% of 150 --> 6 people Heterozygous individuals (Hh) = 2pq = 2(0.2)(0.8) = 0.32 or 32% of 150 --> 48 people And homozygous recessive individuals (hh) = q^2 = (0.8)^2 = 0.64 = 64% of 150 --> 96 people Hope that helps you to understand how to solve these types of population genetics problems!
Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number (neutral particle)and all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons (positive particle) in each atom.So isotope B of the sodium will have 11 protons, 11 electrons but it may have a wide range in its number of neutrons.
ATP, Carbon Dioxide, and Water are all results of Cellular Respiration and do <em>not</em><em> </em>form during Photosynthesis. These three are actually used in the process of Photosynthesis, so they are not created by it. Plants use photosynthesis to create their own glucose.
D. The nerves exit the central nervous system in the head and from the lumbar spine.
Explanation:
The preganglionic neurons transmit the nerve impulses through the cranial or spinal nerves that arise from the brain, to the postganglionic neurons from where the nerve fibers that relay these nerve signals to the different viscera and effector organs, located along the spinal cord
