Answer:
Explanation:
Mutation can cause a change in DNA to change in many ways.
Mutation is the sudden change in the genome of an organism that can be heritable from parent by their offspring.
Missense mutation - This occur when a base pair is substituted for by another leading to the formation of an entirely new amino acid.
Nonsense mutation - This occurs when a base pair is substituted for by another leading to the formation of a new amino acid. The new amino acid form therefore send a stop signal to the sequence of amino acid been built.
Insertion or deletion - Insertion mutation inserts new base pair into the sequence changing the number of the DNA base while deletion deletes a base pair changing the number of DNA base from the amino acid sequence.
Based on the objective you should feel comfortable calculating expected genotype frequencies when given observed allele frequencies. You should also be able to compare expected genotype frequencies from HWE to observed frequencies and determine if evolution is occurring. Here's a sample problem. You can do this without a calculator! Let's take the noob gene, a gene with two known alleles that determines feather color in the eastern lark. The two alleles, let's call them delta and gamma, can be sequenced. In fact, looking at a population in southern GA, you discover that 60% of the alleles in the population are the delta allele. So question 1, what is the percentage of the gamma allele in the population
Answer:
40% is the percentage of the gamma allele in the population.
Explanation:
Available data:
Two alleles, delta and gamma60% of the alleles in the southern GA population are the delta alleleWhat is the percentage of the gamma allele in the population?
According to Hardy-Weinberg, the allelic frequencies in a locus are represented as p and q, referring to the allelic dominant or recessive forms. The genotypic frequencies after one generation are p² (Homozygous dominant), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous recessive). Populations in H-W equilibrium will get the same allelic frequencies generation after generation. The sum of these allelic frequencies equals 1, this is p + q = 1.
In the same way, the sum of genotypic frequencies equals 1, this is
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
Being
p the dominant allelic frequency, q the recessive allelic frequency, p² the homozygous dominant genotypic frequency q² the homozygous recessive genotypic frequency 2pq the heterozygous genotypic frequencyIf the percentage of delta allele in a population is 60%, this means that its frequency is 0.6. By clearing the equation p + q = 1, we can calculate the gamma allele frequency. This is:
p + q = 1
0.6 + q = 1
q = 1 - 0.6
q = 0.4
Then the percentage of gamma allele in the population is 40%.
We can also think about it like this:
If the sum of the allelic frequencies equals 1, then 1 is 100% of the allelic frequencies. And if the percentage of delta allele in a population is 60%, then 40% is the percentage of gamma allele.
Colonial protists have been hypothesized to be the precursors to multicellular organisms. This hypothesis suggests that the individual unicellular members of the colony, which are initially identical, can begin to take on different functions. Then. the colony can begin to evolve into a multicellular organism. True or False
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Protists are group of eukaryotes that are unicellular or microscopic and some times multicellular. They can live in colonies and live individually.
Some protist live in large groups called colony.
Colonial protists form larger groups of multicellular organisms. The individuals work together as large groups and perform functions to benefit each other.
most of the colonial protist are filter feeders that feed on suspended particles. Colonies enhance feeding efficiency. In choanoflagellates, coloniest has led to the evolution of metazoans
Diffusion is a passive process that accounts for the movement of respiratory gases across the capillary membranes of alveoli.
True
False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Diffusion is a passive process (no energy required) in which the substance such as liquid and gases moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
During respiration, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli and oxygen diffuses from alveoli to blood across the respiratory membrane. The partial pressure of oxygen is low in the blood of the pulmonary capillaries and high in the alveoli. so diffusion allow movement of oxygen across the respiratory membrane from the alveoli into the blood.
Hence, the given statement is true.
A study from the National Institutes of Health states that the human body contains trillions of microorganisms that make up 1% to 3% of the body's mass. Use this information to estimate the average mass of a microorganism.
Answer:
If the mass of the human body is 60 kg so the average mass of microorganism is 1.2 kg.
Explanation:
If we suppose the mass of human body is 60 kg and we know the percentage that is 1 to 3% so we will take the average microorganism mass of which is 2%. So by doing multiplication of 60 with 2 and then divided by 100, we get 1.2 kg. The reason for dividing by 100 is that the average mass present in percentage form so for converting the percentage into standard form we have to divide it by 100. So we conclude that in every human with a mass of 60 kg have 1.2 kg microbes present in their body.

You are running an experiment to study seed germination and accidentally left a dish of seeds covered with a little water in a totally dark room. When you return a few days later, you notice that the seeds have sprouted long roots and long shoots. What was the source of most of the matter that makes up these roots and shoots?A. oxygen in the airB. carbon dioxide in the airC. water in the dishD. glucose in the seed
Answer:
D. glucose in the seed
Explanation:
Plants generally make their food through the process of photosynthesis in the presence of sunlight by utilizing carbon-dioxide and water and produces oxygen and carbohydrate.
But due to the absence of sunlight, plant will be unable to use carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis and oxygen is a by-product.
So the reason of seed germination is the presence of glucose in the seed. Seeds generally germinate through the process of inhibition, that require uptake of water. Glucose works as energy source in humans and plants as well. sugar or glucose allow the seed to utilize the water and help foster its growth.
Hence, the correct option is D. glucose in the seed.

A scientist is tracking object orbiting the sun that is found between Mars and Jupiter which additional feature can be used to determine the object is an astroid
Answer:
The options are not given. Here are the options;
produces a coma
has an irregular shape
has a tail of ice and dust
produces a streak of light.
The answer is has an irregular shape.
Explanation:
Asteroid are small objects that are too small to be called planets that revolve round the sun. They are smaller in size. The mass of the asteroids is less than the size of the Earth's moon.
Asteroids are leftovers from the formation of our solar system about 4.6 billion years ago. Earlier, the formation of Jupiter prevented any planetary bodies from forming in the gap between Mars and Jupiter, which make the small objects that were present to collide with each other and fragment into the asteroids.
Asteriods produce irregular shape.
Answer:
the answer is has an irregular shape or b
Explanation:
Shortly after a stream dried up, you noticed a change in the field mouse population coat color variation. When the stream was flowing, there were two populations, one with darker coats and one with lighter coats. After the stream dried up, mice with darker coats were being born into the lighter coat population and vice versa.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
When the stream dried up darker coat mice were seen into the lighter coat population and vice versa because of the natural selection process.
Mice change their coat color by adapting the changes in the stream flow and evolve their coat either dark or light that provides camouflage so predators won’t see them and they are able to survive in the environment. Mice have the advantage of surviving long and they are able to pass their genes to the offspring.
Hence, the given statement is true.
13. Ranchers lobbied the government to eradicate wolves from Yellowstone National Park. Five years later the deer population had increased fivefold. The following winter 70% of the deer starved to death. Explain why this was bound to happen.
Answer: The overgrowth in deer population led to a food shortage.
Explanation:
Since the eradication of the wolves, the deer had no predator to keep their total population in check. Due to the vast amount of deer the food in the area was being eaten at a faster rate. Most of the deer died do to their environment not being capable of feeding that many deer.

The correct answer for this question is missing, which is option d. "includes a large sample size and a control, and alters only one condition between the controls and the experimental condition". The best experimental design includes all the options proposed: it includes a large sample size to ensure that the data is statistically relevant; a control to verify that the results are valid and are not obtained from other untested conditions; and it alters only one condition at the time to ensure the existence of the relation between condition and results.
Which correctly lists the three processes that are affected by freeze and thaw cycles?
O creep, landslide, and deposition
O deposition, creep, and weathering
O landslide, slump and deposition
O slump. weathering, and creep
Answer:
Slump creep and weathering
Explanation:
Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water from rainfall or melt snow penetrate into cracks and the temperature is lowered than a liquid and freeze. The process where exposed rock is broken. It gives the landscape a new shape.
When the freeze occur it expands the rock and when the temperature increases above freezing the thaw ice further penetrate into the crack.
Weathering the breaking down of rock into smaller frequent affects freeze-thaw as it allows water to penetrate into cracks.
Slump is the downward movement of materials from rock surface, it allows material to move alone the rock surface liquid such as water can be allowed to move and penetrate cracks. crack rock fragment that results from freeze thawing are deposited at rock base and form smaller rocks
Creep is also the movements of weathered materials down the slope of rock surfaces. It could result from freeze thaw.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
While doing research on deep-sea vents, you discover a very simple new life form. After some initial analysis, you find that this life form contains small fragments of DNA, small complementary RNA fragments, and proteins. Fortuitously, you collected two strains, one that is purple and one that is yellow. You wish to discover which of those three molecules could be the genetic material. You heat-kill some of the purple life form and subject three different homogenized samples to different enzymes: DNase, RNase, or protease. Which treated sample(s) will transform yellow into purple IF RNA is the genetic material
Answer:
The one treated with DNase and protease
Explanation:
The samples that will transform yellow into purple if RNA is the genetic material are the ones treated with DNase and protease respectively.
The treatment of the heat-killed sample of the purple life with DNase will ensure that the DNA in the sample becomes degraded while treatment with protease will ensure that protein is degraded, leaving only the RNA. Thus, the RNA can be taken up by the yellow life form and become transformed into purple if indeed RNA is the genetic material.
The sample treated with RNase cannot transform the yellow life into purple because the RNase catalyzes the degradation of RNA into smaller components.
The table below compares three galaxies the information about galaxies is correct in
Answer:
A. Column 1
Explanation:
The information in column 1 is correct for all galaxy but information in coulmn 2 and Column 3 has some incorrect information about Elliptical galaxy.
Information about spiral galaxy is correct in all three columns that spiral galaxy has pinwheel shape and made up of several stars, dust and gas particles hold together by gravitational force.
Elliptical galaxy has round or oval shape and made up of mostly old stars and do not have much gas and dust particles which are hold together by gravitation force and not by electrical force.
Irregular galaxy has no defined shape as of spiral and elliptical and are made up of large amount of gas and dust and forms new stars which allow them to look brighter.
Hence, information in coulmn 1 is correct for all the galaxy.
