As a scientist working for an anti-bioterrorism task force, you are asked to evaluate some biological samples for the presence of yersinia pestis, the organism that causes the plague. after confirming that the samples do contain y. pestis, you instruct your team to begin sequencing the strain. since the genome sequence of y. pestis is already known, why would sequencing this strain be useful

Suppose that on a small island off the coast of scotland, 32 percent of the population has blue eyes, which means that these individuals must be homozygous for the blue eye color gene (bb). the only other eye color found on the island is brown, and individuals that are homozygous for the brown eye color gene (bb) or heterozygous (bb) will have brown eyes because brown is the dominant gene. assume this population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium. if 100 babies are born next year, how many of these would you expect to have brown eyes and be heterozygous? a. 58 b. 49 c. 29 d. 43
