Answer:
1. The French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war provided Great Britain enormous territorial gains in North America, but disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war's expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American revolution.
2. In the long-term, the Revolution would also have significant effects on the lives of slaves and free blacks as well as the institution of slavery itself. It also affected Native Americans by opening up western settlement and creating governments hostile to their territorial claims.
Answer:
d.0.48
Explanation:
When a population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium the <u>genotypic </u>frequencies are:
freq (AA) = p²
freq (Aa) = 2pq
freq (aa) = q²
<em>p</em> is the frequency of the dominant <em>A</em> allele and <em>q</em> is the frequency of the recessive <em>a</em> allele.
In this population of 100 individuals, 84 martians have the dominant phenotype and 16 have the recessive phenotype.
Therefore:
q²=16/100
q² = 0.16
q=√0.16
q = 0.4
And p+q=1, so:
p = 1 - q
p = 1-0.4
p = 0.6
The frequency of heterozygotes is:
freq (Aa) = 2pq = 2 × 0.4 × 0.6
freq (Aa) = 0.48
39
Reproductive cells are haploid (have 1/2 the chromosomes), whereas somatic/body cells are diploid (have the full set of chromosomes)
This makes sense if you think about it. Using the example from the question, every dog has 78 chromosomes. This includes two of each (there are two chromosome 1's, two chromosome 2's, etc. This is visible in the karyotype attached). One set of these chromosomes were inherited from the mother, and one set from the father. Each parent contributed 39 chromosomes (one chromosome 1, one chromosome 2, etc.). If the dog in the question were to have 78 chromosomes in its sperm cells, it would contribute two sets to its offspring. When combined with the chromosomes in the egg cell, the offspring would end up with extra chromosomes. Therefore, both the sperm and the egg cells will have 39 chromosomes, one of each. When combined, they will produce offspring with 78 chromosomes, the proper number.
