Ametabolic reaction requires 40 units of enzymatic activity to proceed. if a dominant allele d can generate 40 units of enzyme and a mutant allele d generates 20 units of enzyme, what can be said of the dominant wild-type allele?

a wild type allele is one that encodes a normal functional product while a mutant allele encodes a nonfunctional or less functional product. It implies an altered function of Gene

Explanation:

From the reaction stated the wild type generates a high range of enzyme activity. In metabolic reaction high ranges of enzyme activity have a small effect on the flux to trait component and on molecular components of a defined trait.

the dominant wild-type allele is said to be Haplosufficient

Explanation:

A situation where only one allele is needed to get functional expression of the gene, the allele is called Haplosufficent.

Here, A single copy of functional gene can perform and maintain normal function

when the displaced particles are perpendicular to the direction the wave travels, is called a transverse wave, whereas in longitudinal wave the displace practices are parallel to the direction of the wave.
