However‚ the Mayan people are anything but extinct with their overall headcount around ten million (Coe). That’s right. Ten million of the once almost extinct Maya people roam the earth today. However‚ at one point in time (approximately 1000 A.D.) the population had dropped to about 30‚000 (Coe). How could this have happened?

she receives both recessive alleles. This is not always the case. For example‚ Huntington’s disease only requires one dominant gene for an individual to contract the disease. Suppose that a husband and wife‚ who both have a dominant Huntington’s disease allele (S) and a normal recessive allele (s)‚ decide to have a child. (a) List the possible genotypes of their offspring. (a) Sample space is {SS‚Ss‚sS‚ss} where S=dominant disease allele and s=normal recessive allele (b) What is the probability

Will newspapers disappear? In the last ten or twenty years access to knowledge has utterly changed. Access to information is just a push on a button away. Kids and youngsters hardly read books and the latest news is available in just 140 characters. Will people in a short while only focus on short online messages‚ and type their messages about events happening to friends as well as to absolute strangers? Will people lose interest for newspapers‚ and will newspapers have to change their focus

shift in population allele frequencies in response to selective pressure. We do not grow live populations and test them in our class due to the fact that we don’t have enough time. Also the populations have to go through generations which cannot be conducted in a classroom as a result of not being enough room to reproduce‚ and the organisms would not be in their natural habitat leading to the cause they might not even try to reproduce.This procedure is different among the three populations because

20years from now‚ printed books will disappear Nowadays‚ a growing number of people take it for granted that published books will be gone in the future and be replaced by electronic methods. However‚ contrary to this notion‚ I firmly believe that books will never disappear. The rationale behind this is that they are historically invaluable and indispensible for educational purposes First of all‚ printed books are a priceless asset historically. An important reason for this is that from the past

”why did colors disappear? our people made the choice to go to sameness.” This is what everything would be like if we choose to go to sameness you need to see how different it would be for us nothing would be the same anymore everything would change. What if we could live in a place of sameness what would it all be like no one will be made fun of and everyone would be nice to each other but it might not be as good as it sounds things might not turn out how you would like them to be.

Calculation of Allele and Genotype Frequencies & Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Theory INTRODUCTION Population geneticists study frequencies of genotypes and alleles within populations rather than the ratios of phenotypes that Mendelian geneticists use. By comparing these frequencies with those predicted by null models that assume no evolutionary mechanisms are acting within populations‚ they draw conclusions regarding the evolutionary forces in operation. In a constant environment‚ genes will continue
