In humans, albinism is caused by loss-of-function mutations in genes involved in the synthesis of melanin, the dark pigment in skin. only people homozygous for a loss-of-function allele (genotype aa) have the albino phenotype. in americans of northern european ancestry, albino individuals are present at a frequency of about 1 in 10,000 (or 0.0001). assuming that genotypes are in hardy−weinberg equilibrium, what is the predicted frequency of caucasians in the united states who carry a single allele for albinism?

Recent research by marine biologists suggests that bottlenose dolphins have names for themselves. scientists played sounds they had identified as the names of particular dolphins, putting them through a synthesizer so that they did not sound like the voices of particular dolphins. the researchers found that dolphins would respond to the names of other dolphins that they were related to or associated with, but they ignored the names of strangers. this discovery suggests a much greater degree of self-awareness in aquatic mammals than was previously suspected. if this research holds up, what does it suggest about dolphins?

Describe two recent or ongoing space missions.

In tomato plants, mendel found that the allele for smooth seeds (s) is dominant, while the allele for wrinkled seeds (s) is recessive. which of these punnett squares shows crosses between two plants heterozygous for smooth seeds? i need this to be answered as soon as ! sry the picture is bad quality
