Great question!

<span> mechanical advantage is the factor of which a machine multiplies the force put into it. For example, if a simple machine has a mechanical advantage of 3 it means that it made the work you did 3 times easier or you only had to put in 1/3 the force you would have if you didn’t have the simple machine.
</span>
To calculate the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle you must divide the radius of the wheel by the radius of the axle.<span>Therefore larger wheels means that the speed of the wheels is faster than the speed of the axle and for each rotation the axle makes the wheels are making multiple rotations. A mechanical advantage of 5 means that the wheels are moving 5 times faster than the axle.
</span>
<span>F = MA= radius of wheel/radius of axle</span>, this is 1 when the radius of both the wheel and axle are the same,and greater than one when the radius of the axle is less than the radius of the wheel.

A) In the Dunker population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.3 and the frequency of i allele is 0.4. In the general population, the frequency of IB allele is 0.1 and t<span>he frequency of i allele is 0.5.
</span>
If:
I^{A} - <span>the frequency of IA allele
</span>I^{B} - <span>the frequency of IB allele
</span>i - t<span>he frequency of i allele

Then:
</span>I^{A} I^{A} + <span>I^{A} i - the frequency of individuals with A blood type
</span>I^{B} I^{B} + <span>I^{B} i - the frequency of individuals with B blood type
</span>ii <span>- the frequency of individuals with O blood type
</span>
Let's first take a look on the Dunker population:
I^{A} = 0.3
ii=0.16&#10;

<span>Since there is only one possible genotype for O individuals - ii - the frequency of the allele i is square root of the frequency of O individuals:
</span>i= \sqrt{ii}
⇒ i =  \sqrt{0.16}
⇒ i=0.4

Now, we have the frequencies of two alleles (I^{A} and i). To calculate the frequency of I^{B}<span> allele, we will use the formula:
</span>I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1
⇒ I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i
⇒ I^{B} = 1-0.3-0.4
⇒ I^{B} = 0.3

Now, in the general population:
I^{A} = 0.4
ii=0.25

<span>Similarly to the work for the Dunker population:
</span>i= \sqrt{ii}
⇒ i = \sqrt{0.25}
⇒ i=0.5

I^{A} + I^{B} + i = 1
⇒ I^{B} = 1- I^{A} - i
⇒ I^{B} = 1-0.4-0.5
<span>⇒ I^{B} = 0.1
</span>


b) A founder effect is a result of geographical separation of a few individuals from the original population. Those founding individuals will form a new population. The Dunker population was not only geographically separated, but also genetically. The group interbreeding was present resulting in increasing those allele frequencies that were the most common in the founding population. In this case, the most individuals from the founding population had B blood type.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

covalent, which repel water molecules

they contain ions, which make the entire molecule hydrophilic

they are less dense than liquid water, so they float on the surface

most of their bonds are nonpolar covalent, so they are not attracted to water

What three differences between RNA and DNA.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded. RNA contains ribose as a sugar, while DNA contains deoxyribose. Also, three of the nitrogenous bases are the same in the two types (adenine, cytosine, and guanine), but DNA contains thymine while RNA contains uracil.
