Plz in a population of plants, the allele for long stems (s) is completely dominant over the allele for short stems (s). if 35% of the population has short stems, calculate the percentage of the population that is expected to be heterozygous (ss)

48% is your answer

Don't ask me how I know I just looked at some practice Q's and found the pattern to getting the answer.

√q^2 =√0.35

q=0.59

1-0.59=0.41

2(0.41)(0.59)=0.48 boom theirs the answer

p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1 , p+q=1 these are the formulas I used

  * Frequency of homozygous dominant alleles = p^2

  * Frequency of heterozygous alleles = 2pq

  * Frequency of homozygous recessive alleles = q^2

the answer is z.

the human body has five levels of organization. level 1: cells. cells are the basic units of life and form the first level of organization. cells in the human body have specific functions. examples include nerve cells, blood cells, liver cells, and so on.
