The Manx allele (M) is a dominant allele in cats results in no tails (or very short tails), large hind legs, and a distinctive gait. However, if a cat inherits two copies of the Manx alleles it is lethal. If two Manx cats are mated, what percent of their offspring will NOT survive?

How does a lytic infection differ from a lysogenic infection?

During convection, less dense fluid rises and denser fluid sinks.

Whenever diploid populations are in hardy-weinberg equilibrium at a particular locus a) the allele's frequency should not change from one generation to the next, but its representation in homozygous and heterozygous genotypes may change. b) natural selection, gene flow, and genetic drift are acting equally to change an allele's frequency. c) this means that, at this locus, two alleles are present in equal proportions. d) the population itself is not evolving, but individuals within the population may be evolving.
