Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
Biodiversity usually refers to the different varieties of life forms that exist on earth. This includes the varieties in terms of ecosystem, and species and genetic changes.
This biodiversity is directly dependent on the region where there occurs a high amount of sunlight and precipitation. The factors such as latitude, climate, height, availability of resources are important for the growth and expansion of biodiversity. In these regions, the biogeochemical cycle also occurs rapidly, as the processes that are associated with it occur at a faster rate, thereby enhancing biodiversity.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
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
