Two Siamese and three Persian cats survive a shipwreck, and are carried on driftwood to a previously uninhabited tropical island. All five cats have normal ears (carry the F allele), but one carries the recessive allele (f ) for folded ears (his genotype is Ff ). Based on this information, calculate the following:a. Calculate the frequencies of alleles F and f in the cat population of this island. b. If you assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for these alleles (admittedly very improbable), about how many cats would you expect to have folded ears when the island population reaches 20,000?

Explanation:

the generally accepted parts of modern cell theory include: all known living things are made up of one or more cells. all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division. the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms.

the correct answer is - d. china has a large and growing population.

the fact that china has a large (the biggest) population, and it is still growing, doesn't hinder the agriculture production in the country. in fact, it can for increased production in the agriculture, since there's more labor force, as well the sheer mass of people produces lots of scientists that come up with new inventions as to how to improve this sector. nice example is the inner mongolia region in china, in general dominated by the gobi desert, but few scientist came up with a nice idea as to how to make the region productive by using plants that are very resistant to droughts, so lots of people have been employed, and the region is becoming greener and greener each year, and the production of food in this region is also increasing.
