In a population of 239 pea plants in equilibrium, 47 individuals have white petals, while the rest have purple petals. Color is controlled by a single gene with two alleles. Purple is dominant to white. How many individuals in the population should be heterozygotes if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium

The number of heterozygous individuals in this population is 120.

Note: All the results are rounded up. Because of this, you might get a similar value in your results but not exactly the same. That is ok, just follow the steps.

Explanation:

Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files.    

homeostasis is the tendency towards a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes. and this is how it applies to the integumentary system. back to top. skin functions in homeostasis include protection, regulation of body temperature, sensory reception, water balance, synthesis of vitamins and hormones, and absorption of materials. when body temperature falls, the sweat glands constrict and sweat production decreases.
