21. resistance to the poison warfarin is a genetically determined trait in rats. homozygotes carrying the resistance allele (ww ) have a lower fitness because they suffer from vitamin k deficiency, but heterozygotes (ww) do not. however, the heterozygotes are still resistant to warfarin. in an area where warfarin is applied, the heterozygote has a survival advantage. due to warfarin resistance, the heterozygote is also more fit than the normal homozygote (ww). if the relative fitness values for ww, ww, and ww individuals are 1.0, 0.37, and 0.19, respectively, in areas where warfarin is applied, calculate the allele frequencies at equilibrium. how would this equilibrium be affected if the rats were no longer exposed to warfarin

Imagine that certain laws of physics could be ignored and you were able to travel vast distances in moments. now imagine that you traveled to an earth-like planet located light-years away that is known to support life. think about what you’ve learned in this unit and make an argument for what you think would be the dominant type of life form on this planet. consider whether a notochord is required for an organism to manipulate its environment and become a dominant creature.
