In the diploid ancestor of our modern bread wheat (triticum aestivum), resistance to a particular fungal pathogen is controlled by a dominant allele at a single locus. assume that a population of this diploid wheat is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium and that the frequency of the dominant (resistance) allele is 0.51. in each of the following parts, we suggest carrying your answer to three decimal places.

a) what proportion (decimal value) of the population is phenotypically resistant to the pathogen?

b) assume that all susceptible individuals in this population are eventually killed by fungal infections before they reproduce. what is the frequency of the recessive (susceptibility) allele among the survivors? (hint: count the alleles)

c) assume that the surviving plants cross-pollinate randomly and that each plant produces the same number of seeds. what proportion of the seeds produced will eventually become plants that are susceptible to the fungus?

Clues to ecological principles are given in numerous passages of the bible. a bible study of ecology actually opens the doors to better understanding of god's love and concern for the earth. use a concordance to locate bible passages associated with words concerning our stewardship of the earth. you may use a dictionary to find synonyms for these words: dominion replenish subdue judgment stewardship find each of the passages using these words related to principles of ecology. list all passages by quote, book, chapter, and verse under each word. use your own interpretation to rewrite what you think each verse is saying. after your discussion of each of these words, ask one other person to explain his understanding of the word and a related verse without any hints. summarize what he tells you. a concluding paragraph for each of the words should be written noting similarities and differences between your interpretation and that of each person consulted.

Ivan is looking at a cross section of a stem taken from a vascular plant. he sees two different types of vascular tissue: the xylem, which is closer to the center of the stem, and the phloem, located around the xylem, closer to the outside of the stem. how do these two structures work together in a living plant?
