Answer:
0.50
Explanation:
According to the given information, the frequency of the hornless genotype in the population is = 16% = 0.16. This means that the frequency of the hornless allele in the population is = square root of 0.16 = 0.4.
The gene for the horns in unicorn has three alleles. If the frequency of the allele for twisted horns is represented by "p" and that of the hornless allele is represented as "q", then the frequency of the allele for the longhorn would be (r) = 1- (p+q).
This is due to the fact that the sum total of frequencies of all the possible alleles of a particular gene in a population in the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium is always 1 (p+q+r =1). Now, putting the values of p and q in the formula to calculate the frequency of allele for the longhorn (r) = 1- (0.1 + 0.4) = 1-0.5 = 0.5
Answer:
The size and shapes of their beaks.
Explanation:
They have different food sources, so different shaped beaks are necessary, as well as size.
I feel like I have answered this before... anyways!! After several years of drought, the pond would slowly be eroding turning into land.
Answer:
To provide quick energy to the muscles.
Explanation:
It is advantageous for oxidative muscle fibers to have smaller diameters compared to glycolytic muscle fibers because these fibers depend on aerobic respiration to provide energy to muscle contractions. This smaller diameter enables the oxidative muscle fiber to move very quickly in order to provide quick energy to the muscles. If their diameters are big so they are unable to provide quick energy in the form of ATP to the muscles for their contractions.
