Suppose that Gene B occurs in a sea turtle gene pool where the frequency of the B1 allele is 0.5 and the frequency of the B2 all

ele is 0.4. What is the frequency of the B3 allele, assuming that there are only three alleles in the population?

Answer:

Frequency of the B3 allele = 0.1

Explanation:

The allele frequencies in a given population remain constant which means that every generation will have the same gene pool across the generations. As per Hardy Weinberg’s first equilibrium equation, the sum of frequency of all the alleles at a given locus is equal to one  

Thus, if "p" represents the frequency of B1 allele and "q" represents the frequency of B2 allele and "r" represents the allele for B3 allele. Then, sum or "p", "q" and "r" is equal to one.

p+q+r = 1\\

Substituting the given values, we get -

0.5 + 0.4 + r = 1\\0.9 + r = 1\\r = 1-0.9\\r = 0.1

Threonine is a standard amino acid with a polar side chain.Identify the chiral centers in threonine. a. the carboxyl carbon b. t
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Threonine has two chiral centers.

The correct options are c. carbon b and d. carbon c

Explanation:

Chiral centers are those that have four different groups of atoms bonded to it. Carbon a has three atoms of hydrogen attached to it so it can't be a chiral carbon. It isn't the carboxyl carbon either since it is double bonded to oxygen. And the amino nitrogen does not qualify anyway because it is bonded to three different groups of atoms, not four.

<u>Nutrition and health benefits</u> are the most likely motivation ,if a person decides to switch from drinking freshly squeezed orange juice to calcium-enriched orange juice after a yearly checkup,

Explanation:

As the Calcium enriched orange juice contains calcium almost equal to that of milk , hence it is an essential mineral which helps in building and maintaining strong bones and teeths.

It is also an excellent source of vitamin D helping the body to absorb more calcium . Thus providing excellent nutrition and health benefits.
