Answer:
C) lumbar vertebrae; short, flat spinous processes
Explanation:
The Lumbar Vertebrae are bigger and stronger than vertebral bodies in certain positions.
The vertebral bodies and disks bares majority of the body weight of the body. The lamina, facets and spinous process are basic components of the posterior materials that assist in guiding the movement of the vertebrae and as a coverage or protective shelter for the spinal cord.
The spinous process are SHORT and STURDY (FLAT) in the Lumbar Vertebrae. Hence, this explain why it is often referred to as "Hatchet-Shaped".
The attached image as red dots meant to point to the spinous process in the Lumbar Vertebrae.
Answer:
the frequency of the resistant allele after one generation is 0.989
Explanation:
Given that :
A farmer plants Bt cotton that is genetically modified to produce its own insecticide.
Of the cotton bollworms feeding on these Bt plants, only 5% survive
i.e the survival rate s = 5% =0.05
unless they have at least one copy of the dominant resistance allele R that confers resistance to the Bt insecticide
Frequency of R allele = 0.01
In order to determine what will the frequency of the resistance allele be after one generation of cotton bollworms fed on Bt cotton; we need to first determine the frequency of the recessive allele r.
According to Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium ;
p+q = 1
Let p = R and q = r
R + r = 1
0.01 + r = 1
r = 1 - 0.01
r = 0.99
Now; the frequency of the resistance allele after one generation can be calculated as :
where ;
q' = R
q = r
q' = 0.989
Thus; the frequency of the resistant allele after one generation is 0.989
