Answer:

Tattoos are not really a trait. You are given a tattoo and the offspring can decide if they want a tattoo...but if it is a birthmark then the offspring might have a similar birthmark. But other than that tattoos aren't really considered a trait.I HOPE IT HELPS:)

While frying some eggs on a frying pan, a friend points to the change that happens to the egg white, which contains a protein ca

Masja [62]

Answer:

Yes because when subject to high heat, the proteins change into varying proteins, which is a chemical change. The heat causes denaturation of the albumin, which hardens and causes the change in color. The protein, when heated, untangle and they will mesh. This will trap the surrounding water, and cause the change in color.

I hope this is enough information...

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder. In one population, the frequency of affected individuals (A 2 A 2) is 0.0004

Simora [160]

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium

Explanation:

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium formula for allelic frequency is: $p+q=1$

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium formula for genotypic frequency is: $p^2+q^2+2pq=1$

Here, $p$ =frequency of dominant allele

$q$ =frequency of recessive allele

$p^2$ =frequency of dominant genotype

$q^2$ =frequency of recessive genotype

$2pq$ =frequency of heterozygous genotype

frequency of affected individuals=0.0004(given)

here,affected individuals means the one's having Cystic Fibrosis and since it is recessive disease so we can write frequency of recessive genotype as: $q^2$ =0.0004

If $q^2$ =0.0004 $q$ will be 0.02;frequency of recessive allele will be 0.02

Using the formula $p+q=1$

$p+0.02=1\\p=1-0.02=0.98$

hence,frequency of dominant allele will be 0.98

Frequency of dominant genotype will be $p^2=(0.98)^2=0.9604$
Frequency of heterozygous genotype will be $2pq=2*0.98*0.02=0.0392$

Male cones grow near (1)_____ the of the plant while female cones are located near the (2)_____.

NemiM [27]

1) bottom
2) top

The female cones are located at the top of the tree while make cones are at the bottom. The placement of cones is important in reproduction. Because cross-pollination between trees is desired. Wind will bring pollen from the male cone to female cones from other trees.
