All the following statements about the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium are true except: Group of answer choices It explains why dominant alleles do not necessarily replace recessive alleles in a population. It assumes that populations are infinite. It assumes that individuals prefer to mate with individuals with certain genotypes. All of the above are correct. It applies to populations in which there is no gene flow.

fertilization, pictured in figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. the egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. to ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. in mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. when a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. in placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in figure 24.23b. the fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. the nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.

explanation:

this protocol provides a detailed procedure for co-immunoprecipitation (co-ip) to identify protein–protein interactions.
