On your Spring Break in Mexico, you take a break to count the starfish in a tidal pool. You notice that there is a rare recessive trait that causes the starfish to have 6 legs instead of 5. Of the 27 starfish you can find, only 1 has 6 legs. What are the allele frequencies for this population

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.04 for 6 legs starfish and 0.96 for 5 legs starfish.

Explanation:

The allele frequency for the 6 legs starfish is 0.04 whereas, the allele frequency for the 5 legs starfish is 0.96 because there is only one 6 legs starfish in the given population as compared to 5 legs starfish. The low population of 6 legs starfish is due to the presence of recessive allele while on the other hand, higher population of 5 legs starfish is due to the presence of dominant allele. The allele frequencies for both population is done by dividing the allele of interest by total number of alleles present in the population.

In mitosis, the DNA is replicated once, while in meiosis it is replicated twice.
True or False?

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Like mitosis, meiosis is a form of eukaryotic cell division. However, these two processes distribute genetic material among the resulting daughter cells in very different ways. Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. In contrast, meiosis gives rise to four unique daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

what's assembled during the second step of protein synthesis

Answers

Answer: Translation is the second step in protein synthesis. It is shown in Figure below. Translation takes place at a ribosome in the cytoplasm. During translation, the genetic code in mRNA is read to make a protein. In the first step, called transcription, the genetic code in DNA is copied by RNA. In the second step, called translation, the genetic code in RNA is read to make a protein. A mutation is a change in the base sequence of DNA or RNA.

A segment of a DNA strand is shown. AGGTCAGG
a. What is the complementary DNA strand?

b. What is the mRNA strand?

c. What amino acids are produced as a result (use the codon chart to help you)

Answers

Answer:

b. messenger ribonucleic acid

a. The complementary DNA strand is the sequence that pairs with the given DNA strand. In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). Therefore, the complementary DNA strand of "AGGTCAGG" would be "TCCAGTCC".

b. The mRNA strand is synthesized based on the complementary DNA strand. In mRNA, thymine (T) is replaced by uracil (U). Therefore, the mRNA strand corresponding to the given DNA sequence "AGGTCAGG" would be "UCCAGUCC".

c. To determine the amino acids produced, we need to identify the codons (groups of three nucleotides) in the mRNA strand and refer to a codon chart (also known as a genetic code chart). Here's an example of how the codons in the mRNA strand "UCCAGUCC" can be translated:

UCC (Serine)

AGU (Serine)

CCU (Proline)

Therefore, the resulting amino acid sequence would be Serine-Serine-Proline.

While Rebecca at her locker she can hear students coming from around the corner. Which wave interaction explains why she can hear them

Answers

Answer:

Diffraction

Explanation:

Diffraction is the key explanation why we can hear sounds around corners but not see them. As compared to light waves, sound waves have much longer wavelengths, making diffraction effects much more visible. When the size of the object that the wave is diffracting around is about the same as the wavelength of the wave, diffraction effects become very visible.

Sound has a wavelength of 1 m, while light has a wavelength of 0.1 micro m. Reflection is a secondary reason. Sound waves bounce off walls in a specular way, allowing them to bounce around corners, but light bounces off walls in a diffuse manner.

The  property (quality) of fossils allows scientists to determine the relative ages of rock layers are fossils show change over time as species evolve.

What is the minimum age of a fossil?

A living being that lived more than 11 thousand years ago is considered a fossil, that is, before the Holocene, which is the current geological epoch. Ancient remains or evidence, but less than 11,000 years old, such as sambaquis, are classified as subfossils.

Chemistry is present in this process, more precisely the element Carbon. The dating of a fossil can be done based on the already known percentage of Carbon-14 (C14) in relation to Carbon-12 (C12) of living matter (without decomposition).

An animal with a larval form that disperses by drifting in ocean currents and an adult form that is attached to a surface is most likely to exhibit ______ as a larva and ______ as an adult. bilateral symmetry . . . bilateral symmetry bilateral symmetry . . . be asymmetrical radial symmetry . . . radial symmetry radial symmetry . . . bilateral symmetry bilateral symmetry . . . radial symmetry

Answers

Answer:

Bilateral symmetry as a larva

Radial symmetry as an adult

Explanation:

Bilateral symmetry refers to the division of the animal through a longitudinal plane, int two mirror-image, right and left halves, as seen in organisms such as insects, reptiles or in man. Animals with bilateral symmetry have anterior and posterior halves (head and tail), dorsal and ventral (front and back), and right and left sides. Most animals are bilaterally symmetrical. Animals with bilateral symmetry are best suited for active lifestyles involving streamlined and directional motion.

Radial symmetry refers to the arrangement of body parts around a central axis, just like rays on a sun, ie.they have bodies that seem to radiate outwards from a central point. Animals that are radially symmetrical have top and bottom surfaces only but no left and right sides, or front and back sides. Animals that have radial symmetry are best suited for sedentary lifestyles and are usually attached to some surface (sessile)

An animal with a larval form that disperses by drifting in ocean currents and an adult form that is attached to a surface is most likely to exhibit bilateral symmetry as a larva and radial symmetry as an adult.

Ivanhoe charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The installation service is estimated to have a standalone selling price of $590. The customer pays Ivanhoe $1,920 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,120) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows.
