A fruit fly population has a gene with two alleles, A1 and A2. Tests show that 70% of the gametes produced in the population contain the A1 allele. If the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what proportion of the flies carries both A1 and A2

0.42

Explanation:

Since 70% of the gametes have an A1 allele, this means that the frequency of the A1 allele in the population is 70% or 0.7.

The population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. For this population, the frequency of another allele for the same locus (A2) would be= 1- frequency of A1 allele = 1-0.7 = 0.3

The proportion of flies carrying both A1 and A2 alleles would be = 2 x frequency of A1 allele x frequency of A2 allele.  

So, frequency of heterozygous flies= 2 x 0.7 x 0.3 = 0.42 or 42%

answer: although many types of viruses can cause a common cold, rhinoviruses are the most common culprit. a cold virus enters your body through your mouth, eyes or nose. the virus can spread through droplets in the air when someone who is sick coughs, sneezes or talks. theres your answer

explanation:

the answer to the blank provided is “an autosomal gene that is required for the expression of genes on the x chromosome”.

testis-determining factor, abbreviated as td, which is more popularly known as sex-determining region y or sry protein, is a dna-binding protein or  gene-regulatory protein/transcription factor, encoded by the  sry gene. it is the gene responsible for the initiation of male gender determination in humans.
