In a species of Asclepias (milkweeds) there are two alleles of a gene involved in the synthesis of cardenolides. One allele results in normal synthesis of these molecules, while the other allele prevents synthesis from occurring. Individuals who are heterozygous for this gene produce intermediate amounts of cardenolides. In a population of Asclepias where both alleles of the cardenolide synthesis allele are present the following phenotypes were observed: Normal cardenolide concentration: 241
Intermediate cardenolide concentration: 720
No cardenolides: 39
What are the expected phenotypic frequencies in this population?
A. Normal: 0.36; Intermediate: 0.62; No cardenolides: 0.02
B. Normal: 0.36; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.16
C. Normal: 0.24; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.04
D. Normal: 0.50; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.02
E. Normal: 0.24; Intermediate: 0.72; No cardenolides: 0.04

Which statement best describes a typical difference that could be found between the "analysis" and "conclusion" sections of a lab report? a) only the "conclusion" describes errors that occurred during the experiment, and only the "analysis" section suggests further research.b) only the "analysis" section includes specific data comparisons, and only the "conclusion" section suggests further research.c) only the "analysis" section discusses whether the original hypothesis was supported, and both sections include graphs of data.d) only the "conclusion section discusses whether the original hypothesis was supported, and both sections suggest further research.(the answer is b i just took the test)

Which statements best describe the differences or similarities between a comparative investigation and an experimental investigation? check all that apply. experimental investigations are best for showing cause-and-effect relationships, while comparative investigations do not necessarily show this type of relationship. comparative investigations are often impractical and unrealistic, while experimental investigations are the most practical and realistic kinds of investigations. comparative investigations allow for the use of a wide range of variables but do not have a control group, while experimental investigations involve variables that can be controlled. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations are designed to answer scientific questions. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations focus on making observations rather than collecting new data.
