In a population of tree frogs, the allele that causes yellow eyes (y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y). if 85% of the frogs have yellow eyes, what is the frequency of the dominant allele?

Allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y)

Y = 85% = 0.85 and

y = 100% - 85% = 15% = 0.15

f(y) = square root of y = √y = √0.15 = 0.387

frequency of the allele that causes orange eyes = 0.387

Once we know the value of y, Y + y = 1

Putting the value of y, we get

Y = 1 – 0.387

Frequency of the dominant allele that causes yellow eyes = 0.61

there are 35 white marbles

step-by-step explanation:

y- yellow marbles

4y + 5 = 45

subtract 5 from both sides

4y = 40

divide for from both sides

y = 10

plug in 10 to get 40 yellow marbles then subtract by 5 to get 35 marbles

thus there are only 10 yellow marbles

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
