[A]: According to Hardy-Weinburg law both gene frequencies and genotype frequencies will remain constant from generation to generation in an infinitely large interbreeding population.
[R]: Alleles segregating in a population tend to establish an equilibrium with reference to each other, thus maintain both frequencies constant.

Persons carrying the dominant gene(s) can taste a particular chemical and are called tasters. The others are nontasters. In a large random-mating human population at the hardy-weinberg equilibrium. There are 36% non-tasters and 64% tasters. The frequency of heterozygotes in the populations is

In a population with two alleles for a gene locus (P and p), the allele frequency of P is 0.7. what would be the frequency of heterozygotes if the population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium?

[A]: If a population is of dominant genotype AA, then the frequency of dominant alleles in the gene pool will be relatively higher. [R]: The percentage of gametes bearing recessive (aa) allele will be correspondingly low

Einstein established the idea of photons on the basis of Planck's quantum theory. According to his idea, the light of frequency f or wavelength lamda is infact a stream of photons. The rest mass of each photon is zero and velocity is equal to the velocity of light (c) = 3 xx 10^(8) m.s^(-1) . Energy, E = hf, where h = Planck's constant = 6.625 xx 10^(-34)J.s . Each photon has a momentum p = (hf)/(c) , although its rest mass is zero. The number of photons increase when the intensity of incident light increases and vice-versa. On the other hand, according to de Broglie any stream of moving particles may be represented by progressive waves. The wavelength of the wave (de Broglie wavelength) is lamda = (h)/(p) , where p is the momentum of the particle. When a particle having charge e is accelerated with a potential difference of V, the kinetic energy gained by the particle is K= eV. Thus as the applied potential difference is increased, the kinetic energy of the particle and hence the momentum increase resulting in a decrease in the de Broglie wavelength. Given, charge of electron, e = 1.6 xx 10^(-19)C and mass = 9.1 xx 10^(-31) kg . The number of photons emitted per second from a light source of power 40 W and wavelength 5893 Å
