Are there any answer choices for this
The Hardy-Weinberg equation is as follows:
Where:
(convert all % to decimals)
p= homozygous dominant
q= homozygous recessive
pq= heterozygous
While you did not specify whether the 0.2 frequency was for dominant or recessive, we can still figure out the answer.
Using the 1st equation, we can solve for the other dominant/recessive frequency:
1-0.2=0.8
Meaning that:
p= 0.8 & q=0.2
If the heterozygouz frequency is 2pq, then it becomes a simple "plug & chug" sort of approach.
2(0.8)(0.2)= 2(0.16)= 0.32
So, the heterozygous frequency would be:
0.32
Hope this helps!
In the lytic cycle, a virus that has invaded and entered a cell takes over the cell's replication mechanism. The virus makes viral DNA and viral proteins.
The virus then lyses (breaks open) the cell membrane, allowing the newly produced viruses to leave the now disintergrated host cell to infect other new cells.
The lytic cycle is considered the main method of viral replication. It is even more common than the lysogenic cycle. It has helped scientists understand better how the immune system responds to pathogens.

Answer:
The oxygen dissociation curve represents the percentage saturation of Hb with oxygen at different partial pressure of oxygen. The different partial pressures gives sigmoid shapes to the curve. When this curves shifts to right, it indicates low affinity or binding of oxygen by the Hb. it also indicates the unloading or releases of Oxygen by Hb molecules at condition of low pressure. e,g in the muscles during strenuous exercise.However, when the curve shifts to the left, this indicate high affinity for oxygen, great binding, at high partial pressure of oxygen.e,g in the lungs to take oxygen and releases CO2.
Therefore in this scenario, the statement -. <u>During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right.</u> is correct. because oxygen is needed by the muscles therefore ,oxygen should be less binded by Hb, decrease affinity and easily unloaded to muscles.
<u>The statement </u>This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 into hemoglobin in the lungs is wrong.
As explained above the rightwards shift indicated low affinity of Hb for oxygen(unloading)and favours unloading at the muscles because during strenuous exercise the partial pressure of oxygen is very low(but that of CO2 high) in the muscles which favours low oxygen molecules binding by Hb, and easy release to respiring cells.
