Answer:

According to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, heterozygotes are represented by the 2nd term. Therefore, the number of heterozygous individuals (Aa) is equal to 2 pq, which is equivalent to 2 × 0.19 × 0.81 = 0.31 or 31%

Explanation:

Homozygous recessive individuals (aa) are represented by the term q 2 in the equilibrium HWecuation which is equivalent to 0.81 × 0.81 = 0.66 or 66%

Select the landforms that one would expect to find a divergent boundary. Folded Mountains Rift Valley Mid-Ocean Ridge Deep Sea T
Luden [163]

The answers would be:

Rift Valley

Mid-Ocean Ridge

New oceanic crust

Here is why:

A divergent boundary is a boundary where two plates are<u> moving apart</u>. (You should remember this so you have an idea about what is formed)

A <u>rift valley</u> is formed when two continental plates (These are plates on land) <em>pull apart</em>, creating a rift in the middle. They are literally ripped apart.

The <u>mid-ocean ridge</u> was formed when oceanic plates moved apart. This also leads use to the new oceanic crust part.

Now when oceanic plates move apart, this leaves space for magma, from beneath the Earth's crust, to occupy and rise. When it goes out through the opening, it is cooled by the water on the surface, so it hardens and becomes <u>new oceanic crust</u>. This goes  on and on and this is also how we can explain, seafloor spreading.


<em>*You might be wondering about the Deep Sea Trench. The deep see trench is created by subduction which occurs in convergent boundaries. The trench is the point where the other plate slides under the other. So this is NOT a divergent boundary formation. </em>

Dmitriy789 [7]

Specimen collection is the process of obtaining tissue or fluids for laboratory analysis or near-patient testing.

A specimen collection helps a scientist do an experiment by assembling a large number of samples for comparison. A poorly collected specimen may lead to failure in isolating the causative organism(s) and/or result in the recovery of contaminating organisms.

The mechanism for reactive oxygen species to cause mutation is Select one: a. bases are oxidized to a variety of different produ
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Option a. is correct

Explanation:

A mutation refers to a change in our DNA sequence which causes it to break down. It occurs due to the following reasons:

1. Due to mistakes when the DNA is copied

2. Due to environmental factors such as UV light, smoking.

3. Exposure to specific chemicals or radiation

The mechanism for reactive oxygen species to cause mutation is that bases are oxidized to a variety of different products which might pair with a different base than the original base would have.
