You are studying a population of sexual, diploid insects. One particular trait, wing size, is controlled by a single locus with two alleles. The allele for narrow wing size is dominant (N) and the allele for wide wing size is recessive (n). The population you are studying is comprised of 97 individuals with the NN genotype, 52 individuals with the Nn genotype and 50 individuals with the nn genotype. What is expected frequency of the dominant allele (A1) after selection

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The expected frequency of the dominant allele, N is 0.70

Explanation:

Total number of individuals in the insect population = 97 + 52 + 50 = 199

From Hardy-Weinberg equation, p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1; also p + q = 1

The frequency of dominant allele, N = p

Frequency of dominant NN genotype individuals = p2

From the given data: the population is comprised of 97 individuals with the NN genotype, 52 individuals with the Nn genotype and 50 individuals with the nn genotype.

Frequency of NN genotype individuals p2 = number of individuals with NN genotype ÷ total insect population

p2 = 97/ 199

p2 = 0.487

p = 0.697 = 0.70

Therefore, the expected frequency of the dominant allele, N is equal to 0.70

Answers

This is simply because U.S is a large country with vastly different landscapes.

Southern states in the South have rough summers and high levels of humidity so stations are built to depict those numbers.

Answers

was caused by global warming that left ocean animals unable to breathe. The largest extinction in Earth's history marked the end of the Permian period, some 252 million years ago

Explanation:

Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one.

Heparin, a highly negatively charged glycosaminoglycan, is used clinically as an anticoagulant. It acts by binding several plasma proteins, including antithrombin III, an inhibitor of blood clotting. The 1:1 binding of heparin to antithrombin III seems to cause a conformational change in the protein that greatly increases its ability to inhibit clotting. What amino acid residues of antithrombin III are likely to interact with heparin

Answers

Answer:

Positively charged amino acids

Explanation:

Heparin is an acid polysaccharide that has a strong negative charge due to the sulfate groups on its glucosamine residues. This negative charge confers to heparin anticoagulant activity. The negatively charged groups in the heparin molecule can interact with positively charged (basic) residues, such as arginine (Arg) and lysine (Lys) of plasma proteins. For example, it has been shown that lysine amino acid residues of antithrombin III may be involved in the binding with heparin.

Phage are viruses that must infect bacteria to reproduce. Viral genomes do not contain all the genes needed to produce all proteins necessary for DNA replication, RNA transcription, and protein translation; instead the viruses force bacterial proteins and enzymes to express phage genes instead of bacterial genes.
Phage are very adaptable, and their behavior depends on whether conditions are favorable or unfavorable for making more phage.
When bacteria are plentiful (favorable conditions), viral DNA within the bacteria remains separate from the bacterial chromosome, and the virus forces the bacteria to make more virus. When the amount of virus becomes too much for the cell to hold, the membrane ruptures, and viruses are released to infect surrounding bacteria. This is known as the lytic cycle.
When bacteria are scarce (unfavorable conditions), the viral DNA within the bacteria becomes integrated into the bacterial chromosome. The bacteria survive and are still able to reproduce; viral DNA is transmitted to daughter cells when the bacteria reproduces. This is known as the lysogenic cycle.
As you just read, phage depend on bacteria to reproduce. Phage can be maintained by infecting a culture of bacteria with a strain of phage, and then plating the bacteria on an agar plate to grow.
Suppose that you isolate two mutant strains of phage - one strain cannot enter the lytic cycle and the other strain cannot enter the lysogenic cycle. You also grow wild-type phage as a control. You see three different phenotypes:
A plate with no missing bacteria- the lawn of bacteria is intact
A plate with spots/circles (called plaques) where there are absolutely no bacteria in the circles
A plate with spots/circles (called plaques) where there are some bacteria in the center of the circles.
Based on what you know about what happens in each cycle, match the plating results with the identity of the strain.
Drag each plate into the correct category.

Answers

Answer:

A plate with no missing bacteria- the lawn of bacteria is intact----strain with lysogenic cycle.

A plate with spots/circles (called plaques) where there are absolutely no bacteria in the circles---- lytic cycle

A plate with spots/circles (called plaques) where there are some bacteria in the center of the circles----- wild type phage.

Explanation:

The strain which cannot enter the lytic cycle having no missing bacteria on the plate because the virus remains inside the bacterial cell while on the other hand, the other strain that cannot enter the lysogenic cycle having no bacteria on the circle due to infection of virus spreads throughout the cells and no bacterial cell remains uninfected. One plate having some bacteria and some space having no bacteria due to virus of wild type that shows both cycles.

In medieval warfare, one of the greatest technological advancement was the trebuchet. The trebuchet was used to sling rocks into castles. You are asked to study the motion of such a projectile for a group of local enthusiast planning a medieval war reenactment. Unfortunately an actual trebuchet had not been built yet, so you decide to first look at the motion of a thrown ball as a model of rocks thrown by a trebuchet. Specifically, you are interested in how the horizontal and the vertical components of the velocity for a thrown object change with time. 1. Make a large rough sketch of the trajectory of the ball after it has been thrown. Draw the ball in at least five different positions; two when the ball is going up, two when it is going down, and one at its maximum height. Label the horizontal and vertical axes of your coordinate system.2. On the sketch, draw and label the expected acceleration vectors of the ball (relative sizes and directions) for the five different positions. Decompose each acceleration vector into its vertical and horizontal components.3. On the sketch, draw and label the velocity vectors of the object at the same positions you chose to draw your acceleration vectors. Decomposes each velocity vector into its vertical and horizontal components. Check to see that the changes in the velocity vector are consistent with the acceleration vectors. 4. Looking at the sketch, how does someone expect the ball's horizontal acceleration to change with time? Could you give a possible equation giving the ball's horizontal acceleration as a function of time? Graph this equation. If there are constants in your equation, what kinematic quantities do they represent? How would someone determine these constants from the graph? 5. Looking at the sketch, how does someone expect the ball's horizontal velocity to change with time? Is it consistent with the statements about the ball's acceleration from the previous question?

How would someone determine these constants from the graph? 6. Could you give a possible equation for the ball's horizontal position as a function of time? Graph this equation. If there are constants in the equation, what kinematic quantities do they represent? How would someone determine these constants from the graph?
