These weeds are growing in a farmer's field. The weeds compete with the soybean plants the farmer grows, so he needs to get rid of them. For a few years, the former relies on manually removing the woods, but that is labor intensive and limits how much crop he can grow. The farmer decided to change his crop to genetically modified soybeans that are herbicide resistant. This allows the farmer to use chemicals to remove the weeds. With this GM soybean, the chemical kills the woods but does not harm the crop. For many years this works, and allows the farmer to expand his farm and grow more soybeans. But then, one of the farmer's fields has a large weed plant remaining after the field has been sprayed with herbicide
1. Which of the following is the likely reason the weed has remained?
a. The weed needed to be resistant in order to survive, so it became resistant
b. A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide
2. Which of the following is likely to happen if that weed stays in place?
a. The trait will spread to nearby weeds
b. The weed will survive long enough to reproduce
c. In time, the herbicide will no longer be effective on that field.
Answer:
1) A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide ( B )
2) The weed will survive long enough to reproduce ( B )
Explanation:
1) The most likely reason the weed remained is : A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide
The weed plant must have undergone some mutation in order to be resistant to the herbicide which would kill the weed before now
2) The most likely thing that will happen if the weed stays in place in that farm is : The weed will survive long enough to reproduce
The trait or mutation of the weed cannot just spread to other weeds nearby it can only spread by reproducing more weeds of same mutation

What is included in Earth’s hydrosphere?
Answer: The hydrosphere includes water that is on the surface of the planet, underground, and in the air. A planet's hydrosphere can be liquid, vapor, or ice. On Earth, liquid water exists on the surface in the form of oceans, lakes and rivers. It also exists below ground—as groundwater, in wells and aquifers. brainliest?

The ability to taste PTC comes from the presence of a dominant allele (T). A population of 20 individuals was surveyed to determine whether or not they could taste PTC. Sixteen out of the twenty surveyed could taste PTC. Four could not taste PTC. Assume that Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium conditions are met in the population. Round all answers properly to 2 decimal digits. Rounding rules: When rounding to 2 decimal digits, look at the third decimal digit. If the third digit is 5 or greater, round up. If the third digit is less than 5, round down.
What is the frequency of the non-taster allele (t) in this population?
What is the frequency of the taster allele (T) in this population?
What is the frequency of the TT genotype? Answer What is the frequency of the Tt genotype?
What is the frequency of the tt genotype? Answer How many people in this population are expected to be heterozygous for this locus? Round to the closest whole number.
Answer:
1) What is the frequency of the non-taster allele (t) in this population?
f (t) = q = 0.45
2) What is the frequency of the taster allele (T) in this population?
f (T) = p = 0.55
3) What is the frequency of the TT genotype?
F (TT) = p² = 0.3
4) What is the frequency of the Tt genotype?
F (Tt) = 2pq = 0.5
5) What is the frequency of the tt genotype?
F (tt) = q² = 0.2
6) How many people in this population are expected to be heterozygous for this locus?
Tt = 10 individuals
Explanation:
Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files
1) What is the frequency of the non-taster allele (t) in this population?

What is a genotype?
A genotype is someone's collection of genes. The word also can guide the two alleles inherited for a respective gene.
The genotype is defined when the information encoded in the genes' DNA is used to make protein and RNA molecules.

Choose all that apply
Question 8 options:

nocturnal active at night.
nocturnal mean awake during the day, and use the light to their advantage.
diurnal means active at night
Answer:
diurnal means awake during the day, and use the light to their advantage
nocturnal active at night.
Explanation: Diurnal means active during the day, such as a mosquito meanwhile, a nocturnal animal or being is only active during the night, and sleeps the day away, such as a bat
Hope this helps ^^
Diurnal means awake during the day time, and use the light to their advantage. Nocturnal means active at night time. Thus, the correct options will be A and B.
What is Diurnal and Nocturnal?Based on the activeness of an organism during a day or 24 hours time period, the animals or organisms can be classified into two different types which are nocturnal and diurnal organisms. Nocturnal animals are the animals which are most active during the night time, and diurnal animals are the animals which are active during the daytime.
Diurnal animals are those animals which are awake during the day time, and use the light energy to their advantage. Nocturnal animals are the animals which are active at the night time.
Therefore, the correct options will be A and B.

The function of the liver in humans is to maintain the [glucose] circulating in the blood stream at reasonably constant levels. This is so organs like the brain that use primarily glucose as their carbon source to produce energy via ATP have a steady supply of glucose. It also ensures that the levels of glucose in the blood stream do not get too high. Using the plots from problem 6, discuss why it makes sense that glucokinase in liver would behave differently than the hexokinase in other cells.
Answer:
Due to difference in function.
Explanation:
Glucokinase in liver behave differently than the hexokinase in other cells because glucokinase performs different function in the body. Glucokinase is an enzyme that is responsible for sensing the glucose level in the blood and also plays a key role in the storing of glucose as glycogen while on the other hand, this storing ability is absent in hexokinase so that's why the glucokinase in liver behave differently than the hexokinase in other cells.
