Evidence for evolution, in other words evidence of common descent, include fossils, which have shown a (fairly) steady change in morphology over time for some species. An example would be horse hooves: we have fossils that show when they were still three toed, then two toed, then one toe in our present day horses. Another piece of evidence is vestigial organs. An example of vestigial organs is wings in some flightless birds, such as the kiwi. Their ancestors used it in order to fly across the marine barrier into New Zealand, but natural selection and random genetic drift made them quickly lose the ability to fly. Nonetheless, they still have their wings, however small. It can be assumed that eventually, their wings would be reduced to small stubs fused to other nearby bones, as has been observed in their cousins.
Answer:
0.095
Explanation:
Phenylkentonuria is a disease caused by a recessive allele.
The frequency of the recessive allele + the frequency of the dominant allele equals 1.
The frequency of the recessive allele is q = 0.05
The frequency of the dominant allele then is p = 1 - q = 0.95
If people mate randomly, the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype will be p², the frequency of the heterozygous genotype will be 2pq and the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype will be q² .
2pq=2× 0.05 × 0.95
2pq=0.095
The heterozygote frequency in the population is 0.095
The Ras protein found in tumors usually cause which of the following events to occur excessive cell division.
<h3>How does Ras oncogene contribute to cancer?</h3>
Ras genes codes for proteins that can drive cancer when mutated.
All Ras proteins are GTPases which work as molecular regulators in the cell, controlling signaling pathways and other interactions.
Thus, option "A" is correct.

Carlos will have to consume about 63 gram of protein per day.
The dietary reference intake of protein is 0.8 gram of protein per kilogram body weight or 0.36 gram per pound. Carlos is 175 pounds in weight, so he is going to need 0.36 * 175 = 63. Thus, Carlos needs 63 grams of protein per day.<span />
