Answer:
Explanation
Given that 36% are recessive in traits
100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%
P=dominant allele
q= recessive allele
P2= dominant genotype
q2= recessive genotype
according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1
64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore
p2=0.64
then
P=√0.64
p= 0.8
Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8
Answer:
Antibiotics inhibit enzymes specific to bacteria and have no effect on virally encoded enzymes
Explanation:
The specificity of the antibiotics to inhibits some bacterial enzymes is one of the major reasons why antibiotic do not affect viruses.In addition antibiotics are designed to have a significant destructive effects on the mechanisms of biochemical reactions in bacteria and its physiology, e,g on the cells walls,( inhibiting the formation of peptydoglycans) on certain organelles e,g ribisomes (inhibiting protein synthesis) and on the DNA(disrupting replication). The virus physiology is different from bacteria, therefore the design of antibiotics will nor affect these same mechanisms in viruses, thus no specificity for the antibiotic to act on in virus
Answer:
DNA replication is important because without it, cell division could not occur. With DNA replication, the set of DNA of a cell can be duplicated and then each cell that results from division can have its own entire set of DNA, and cell division can theoretically continue indefinitely.
