In studying the gene pool of a population, you find that 21% of the population exhibits the recessive trait for eye color and th
e other 79% of the population exhibits the dominant trait. The dominant allele has complete dominance over the recessive allele. How would you use this information to solve for the frequency of the recessive allele?
In order to solve this problem we use these formula: <span>p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1p + q = 1p = % dominant allele in the population q = % recessive allele in the population p2 = % homozygous dominant individuals q2 = % homozygous recessive individuals 2pq = % heterozygous individualsFrom the given, we haveq2 = 21%Simply taking the square root,q = 4.58%</span>
Answer:Neurogenic shock can result from severe central nervous system damage (brain injury, cervical or high thoracic spinal cord). In more simple terms: the trauma causes a sudden loss of background sympathetic stimulation to the blood vessels.
Density is an intrinsic physical property of minerals that relates to the composition of the mineral and to the pattern in which the mineral’s atoms are arranged.
