Answer:
0.2 (or 20%)
Explanation:
The allele frequency can be calculated by counting how many times an allele appears in a population and then by dividing this number by the total number of alleles of the gene. In this case,
- Genotype BB = 30 moths >> 60 copies of the B allele
- Genotype Bb= 12 grey moths >> 12 copies of the B allele and 12 copies of the b allele
- Genotype bb= 3 white moths >> 6 copies of the b allele
The total number of copies of the gene is:
Dominant (B) allele = 60 (BB genotype) + 12 (Bb genotype) = 72 B alleles
Recessive (b) allele = 12 (Bb genotype) + 6 (bb genotype) = 18 B alleles
Then, 72 + 18 = 90 alleles
Allele frequencies:
Dominant (B) allele = 72/90 = 0.8 (or 80 %)
Recessive (b) allele = 18/90 = 0.2 (or 20%)
The frequency of the white allele b alleles for the moth-coloration gene in the population - 40%
The frequency of an allele can be calculated by dividing the number of times the allele of interest is observed in a population by the total number of copies of all the alleles at that particular genetic locus in the population
Total number of b alleles = number of alleles present in recessive bb + number of alleles present in heterozygotes Bb
Number of bb individuals = 3 Number of b alleles present in bb = 3 × 2 = 6 Number of Bb individuals = 12 Number of b alleles present in Bb = 12 × 1 = 12 Total number of b alleles = 6 + 12 = 18the frequency of an alele = 18/45
= 40%
Thus, the frequency of the white allele b alleles for the moth-coloration gene in the population - 40%

Which of these is a condition where the endometrial lining that is normally supposed to only be inside the uterus, ends up outside the uterus (for instance, in the pelvic cavity) and causes extreme pain during menstruation? This condition affects up to 1 in 4 women.
Answer:
Endometriosis is called the pathology
Explanation:
Endometriosis is a pathology where fibroblasts or connective tissue cells proliferate outside the fallopian tubes in the abdomen, close to the intestine, and adjacent to the ovaries, by proliferating and reducing the space between the organs, the pressure of the terminals increases nervous and during menstruation it hurts.
They are benign proliferative cell foci.
The passive movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to a
region of lower concentration is known as...
A. Diffusion
B. Active Transport
C. Osmosis
D. Selective Permeability
Answer:
Answer is A. Diffusion
Explanation:
Because diffusion is a passive process in which a substance moves from a higher concentration to a lower concentration until the concentration becomes equal
The passive movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration is known as diffusion. Thus, the correct option is A.
What is Diffusion?Diffusion may be defined as the passive movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
Active transport requires energy for the movement of particles. Selective permeability may be defined as the ability to differentiate the movements of different types of particles in and out of the membrane.

Why do planets close to the sun have thin atmospheres and the planets far away from the sun have thick atmospheres. Use what you know about the nebular theory.
Answer:
There are two primary factors: size and distance from the Sun. Gravity helps planets and moons to hold on to their atmospheres, so small planets/moons such as Mars and the Moon have thin atmospheres. The reason why the outer planets are larger is probably down to two major factors. The first is simply the amount of material available which may be accreted to a planet. Clearly, the further away from the Sun, the longer the orbit (twice as far means an orbit twice the physical length).

Consider the separate stages of an animal virus life cycle. Assemble a list of structures and processes that are unique to the virus and would make good drug targets for an antiviral agent. Explain your rationale for each choice.
Answer:
Explanation:
In order to make an antiviral agent, we need to find good drug targets, that is, to find structures and processes that are only present in the virus, so there is no harm on human cells when this antiviral agent is being applied.
In the virion of a naked virus, only nucleic acid and protein are present forming the nucleocapsid. The nucleic acid and proteins of the capsid, specially, are found only in the virus and therefore make good drug targets. For example, we can express antibodies to recognize the proteins of the capsid and guide the immune system to destroy them.
Although virus particles are metabolically inert, one or more key enzymes are present within the virion in some viruses, for example, the reverse transcriptase. This enzyme is only found in viruses and if we find a way to inhibit the activity of this reverse transcriptase, like for example finding a competitor substrate, the virus will not be able to synthesize the DNA needed for its replication.
Regarding processes in the virus life cycle, they all have similar steps: first the attachment of the viral particle onto the cell, then the penetration of the virus, then the synthesis of early and intermediate enzymes using the host cell machinery, and finally the assembly of these viral components and lysis of the host cell to release new viral particles.
The attachment of a virion to a host cell is a highly specific process. Recognition proteins on the virus recognize specific receptors on the host cell. Substances that compete with the virion for these specific receptors can be used. If there is no attachment, there is no infection.

Solution : It is a mixture of solvent (Major component mostly liquid) and solute (Minor component).
It is asking from a solution where water and solute are moving whether outise or inside.
_____________________________________As Per Hint Given:Solute ; Moves from higher concentration to the lower concentration by the process of diffusion.Solvent(Water) ; Moves from low solute area to the high solute area by the process of osmosis._____________________________________ROW 1 :26: Inside the cell (because inside the cell there is 5% solute(salt) whereas outside the cell it is 10%)
27: Outside the cell (outside the cell there is more concentration of salt so water moves out)
ROW 2:In Row 2 there is equal amount of salt outside and inside the cell so Solute and Solvent do not move because the solution is ISOTONIC
28: NO MOVEMENT
29: NO MOVEMENT
ROW 3:30: Glucose moves outside the cell
31: Water moves inside the cell (because glucose is more inside the cell)
ROW 432: Outside the cell (same reasons as above)
33: Inside the cell
ROW 534: NO MOVEMENT
35: NO MOVEMENT
ROW 636: Outside the cell
37: Inside the cell

_____________________________________describe how and where carbondioxide enters the leafe?
Answer:Carbon dioxide cannot pass through the protective waxy layer covering the leaf (cuticle), but it can enter the leaf through an opening (the stoma; plural = stomata; Greek for hole) flanked by two guard cells. Likewise, oxygen produced during photosynthesis can only pass out of the leaf through the opened stomata.

A cell has chloroplasts, numerous ribosomes, an endoplasmic reticulum, and a cell wall. What type of cell is this?
Answer:
The cell with chloroplasts, abundant ribosomes, plus an endoplasmic reticulum, and a cell wall is of the plant cell type.
Explanation:
Plant cells are eukaryotic cells found in all plants, with specific characteristics given their ability to be autotrophic and use solar energy to synthesize their nutrients. The presence of many ribosomes and a developed endoplasmic reticulum is due to their high capacity for plant protein synthesis.
One characteristic that differentiates plant and animal cells is the presence of a cell wall, which surrounds the cell membrane, and chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are responsible for making the process of photosynthesis possible.
Humans deplete the most resources when
Answer:
Resource depletion is the consumption of a resource faster than it can be replenished. Natural resources are commonly divided between renewable resources and non-renewable resources (see also mineral resource classification). Use of either of these forms of resources beyond their rate of replacement is considered to be resource depletion. The value of a resource is a direct result of its availability in nature and the cost of extracting the resource, the more a resource is depleted the more the value of the resource increases. There are several types of resource depletion, the most known being: Aquifer depletion, deforestation, mining for fossil fuels and minerals, pollution or contamination of resources, slash-and-burn agricultural practices, Soil erosion, and overconsumption, excessive or unnecessary use of resources.
Resource depletion is most commonly used in reference to farming, fishing, mining, water usage, and consumption of fossil fuels. Depletion of wildlife populations is called defaunation.
