Answer:
q = 0.42
Explanation:
This question is an example of Hardy-Weinberg question and there are two equations necessary to carry out this question;
p + q = 1
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
where;
p = the frequency of the dominant allele
q = the frequency of the recessive allele
p² = the frequency of individuals with homozygous dominant genotype
2pq = the frequency of individuals with heterozygous genotype
q² = frequency of individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype
Since the total population = 425
q² = 
= 
q² = 0.1765
To find q; we need to square root both side to eliminate the square from q².
∴ 
q = 0.4201
q = 0.42 (to two decimal places)
The shuffling of chromosomes that occurs during both fertilization and meiosis can lead to genetic variation. This is because of the independent assortment and crossing over. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
Answer:
increase
Explanation:
The mevalonate pathway is known to generate isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, which are used to synthesize diverse compounds including cholesterol and steroid hormones. The levels of mevalonate in human plasma may be used as a measure of cholesterol synthesis. When the cholesterol level is low, it stimulates its endogenous production by the mevalonate pathway. Since it is well known that the vegetarian diet reduces cholesterol, this diet also increases mevalonate levels.

Answer:
The heat given off by Earth's core is circulated through mantle convection.
Explanation:
Heating materials usually causes them to <em>expand</em>; as they become hotter, they also become less dense. Convection describes the transfer of heat from hot areas of liquids and gases to cooler ones. This causes the heated, less dense material to rise and more dense material to fall, as it’s pulled by gravity. Super-heated metal forming Earth’s central core heats rock in the mantle; the hot and cool rock slowly rise and sink- this circulation process is called mantle convection.
