A) a community where two species control resources
B) a community where competition between species is high
C) an open community with some different species who can come and go
D) a closed community with samples of many different plants and animals

Approximately 90% of all cases of polycystic kidney disease are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. the disease is typically related to mutations to genes (pkd1 and pkd2). pkd genes can be found on chromosome 16. the disease occurs in approximately 1: 800 to 1: 1000 people. here is a hypothetical example. the dominant allele d will cause the development of pkd. the recessive allele is known as d. what genotypes would correspond to suffering from pkd? dd, dd what genotypes would correspond to being normal (not suffering from pkd)? dd consider that 1: 1,000 people have pkd in your population of 325million. consider that pkd is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. show you math for all of the following questions: what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is p? what is q? how many people in your population would have pkd?

The fish shown above is a tarpon. it is a fast-swimming and powerful open-water fish. its closest relatives, oddly, are burrow-dwelling conger eels that stay on the bottom. both eels and tarpon developed from snake-like larvae that float in the plankton during the first stages of life. once they mature, tarpon and eels are not found near one another in the ocean. the tarpon and the eel illustrate all of the following except

What happens when water’s salinity increases? mass decreases. freezing point decreases. buoyancy of objects decreases. the amount of dissolved minerals decreases.
