The alula is a small structure that is found on birds. It is located at the joint between the hand wing and the arm wings of birds and it is the freely moving, first digit of a bird's wing. It is normally used by birds in slow flight. In humans, the structure that is comparable to the alula is the thumb.

Lena [83]

Answer:

No, observed and expected frequencies are different.

Observed frequencies: p2 = 0.56 , 2pq = 0.375, q2 = 0.062

Expected frequencies: p2 = 0.774 , 2pq = 0.211, q2 = 0.014

Explanation:

Given frequency of recessive genotype (q2)= 14/ 1006 = 0.0139

Frequency of recessive allele s (q) = square root of 0.0139 = 0.12

Frequency of dominant allele S (p) = 1-q = 1-0.12 = 0.88

Expected frequency of homozygous recessive genotype = 0.12 x 0.12 = 0.014

Expected frequency of homozygous dominant genotype = 0.88 x 0.88 = 0.774

Expected frequency of heterozygous dominant genotype = 2pq = 2 x 0.88 x 0.12 = 0.211

Observed frequencies in population 2

Observed frequency of homozygous dominant genotype = 308 / 549 =0.56

Observed frequency of heterozygous dominant genotype = 206 / 549 =0.375

Observed frequency of homozygous recessive genotype = 34 / 549 =0.062

Observed frequencies do not match with expected frequencies.

Slowing signals between neurons is a function of __________.
MrRissso [65]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is- d. inhibitory neurotransmitter.

Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers in the body, which are released by the axon terminal of neuron ( also called nerve cell) and transmit nerve impulse to the neighboring cell ( which could be a muscle cell or a nerve cell) .

There are primarily two types of neurotransmitters that are-

1) Excitatory neurotransmitter and 2) Inhibitory neurotransmitter.

Inhibitory neurotransmitter have inhibitory effects on the neuron that is they reduce the chances that a neuron will fire an action potential. In other words, they are responsible for slowing signals between neurons.

Example- The most common inhibitory neurotransmitter is GABA ( gamma amino butyric acid)
