Assignment: 01.01 Exploring Life I am so excited to see your first assignment! Please remember the following:
1. The hypothesis is a statement that relates the Independent variable with your dependent
variable in a prediction and includes a reason why.
2. The Independent variable is a measurement or condition you are purposely changing. The
dependent variable is what you are measuring. The control variable is the experimental group
that does not get the treatment from the independent variable.
3. Your conclusion should be in a paragraph form using the questions as a guide.
Follow the instructions as directed in the lesson.

Researchers studying a small milkweed population note that some plants produce a toxin and other plants do not. they identify the gene responsible for toxin production. the dominant allele (t) codes for an enzyme that makes the toxin, and the recessive allele (t) codes for a nonfunctional enzyme that cannot produce the toxin. heterozygotes produce an intermediate amount of toxin. the genotypes of all individuals in the population are determined (see chart) and used to determine the actual allele frequencies in the population. is this population in hardy-weinberg equilibrium? a) yes. b) no; there are more homozygotes than expected. c) no; there are more heterozygotes than expected. d) more information is needed to answer this question.
