Amazingly, an alien species of cellular organism is found alive in the remains of a meteorite that landed in the Mojave Desert. As a scientist, you are trying to determine whether this alien life-form uses DNA, protein, or some other type of compound as its hereditary material. What kinds of experiments would you propose to determine what the hereditary material is?

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
