The dimensions of prokaryotic ribosomes are approximately 14 nm by 20 nm. If ribosomes occupy 20% of the volume of a bacterial cell, calculate how many ribosomes are in a typical cell as E. coli. Assume that the shape of a ribosome is approximately that of a cylinder. A typical bacterial cell volume is 1.6 um3.

Humans are believed to have evolved in coastal regions in east africa. the region had an abundant supply of fish for early humanoids to eat. when scientists analyze the fads gene they see an interesting pattern. people whose families have lived in this area of east africa for generation show a high level of diversity in alleles for the fads gene. conversely, people whose families had migrated inland a moderate distance from sources of fish showed a much lower diversity for fads gene alleles. additionally, the fads alleles found in people whose family has lived inland for generation are almost all gene alleles which produce fads proteins with a high level of function and activity. how do anthropologists explain this?
