A population of wildflowers has a gene for red flower color exhibits incomplete dominance where heterozygous individuals (Rr) are pink. Calculate p and q for the following population using the counting alleles method. Show all your work. The population has 3,600 red flowers, 4,800 pink flowers and 1,600 white flowers. A forest fire ravages the area and afterwards the population has 81 red flowers, 18 pink flowers and 1 white flower. Calculate p and q after the forest fire. How has the forest fire changed the population?

Which of the following diseases may be transmitted through an accidental needle stick? a. syphilis b. tuberculosis c. cellulitis d. hepatitis b

6. in domesticated cats, the following are independently assorting: normal ears (t) is dominant to tufted ears (t); curved whiskers (c) is dominant to straight whiskers (c); the presence of six toes (s) is dominant to five toes (s); gene for hair length is an x-linked codominant. the three phenotypes for hair length are long (xhxh), medium (xhxh), and short (xhxh); medium is the heterozygous condition. given two parents: ttccssxhxh x ttccssxhy how many different gametes could be formed in the female cat with respect to these four traits? how many phenotypes are possible in the offspring from this mating?

Use this dichotomous key for insect identification to identify the insect shown. 1. a. insect has one pair of wings. order diptera b. insect has two pairs of wings. go to #2 2. a. front wings thicker in texture than hind wings go to #3. b. front and hind wings are same texture throughout. go to #4 3. a. front wings are short order dermaptera b. front wings cover entire abdomen order coleoptera 4. a. wings with scale on all parts of their area. order lepidoptera b. wings without scales go to #5. 5. a. hind wings smaller than front wings. order ephemeroptera b. front and hind wings nearly equal in size. order odonata the insect pictured is in the order diptera. ephemeroptera. coleoptera. odonata.
