Humans vary in their ability to taste the bitter chemical compound phenylthiocarbamide ( PTC ). The taster phenotype is dominant to the non-taster phenotype. Researchers tested the PTC taster phenotype of individuals from an isolated population. In the sample, 780 individuals were able to taste PTC and 70 individuals were not able to taste PTC .Assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the frequency of the non-taster allele

The frequency of the recessive allele, t is f(t) = q = 0.29.

Explanation:

Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files.

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.
