states that the frequency of alleles and genotypes in a population’s gene pool remain constant over the generations unless acted upon by agents other than sexual recombination. For example‚ take a population of mice that consists of 1‚000 members. A specific allele‚ albino allele‚ is recessive within this species. 80% of the population expresses the normal phenotype- brown coloring‚ while the remaining 20% are albino. 640 members of the population have the genotype AA‚ 320 have Aa‚ and 40 have aa.

and 0.3 mM) on growth and antioxidant enzymes of seedlings of 2 mung bean genotypes (NM 19-19 and Azri mung-2006). Results revealed that germination percentage and seedling length decreased when compared with the control for both genotypes. However‚ seedling length and germination percentage was better in NM 19-19 as compared to Azri mung-2006. Elevated levels of protein were observed under metal stress in both genotypes. Heavy metals induced oxidative stress in plants‚ causing membrane injury

SIMULATION OF NATURAL SELECTION MATERIALS Plastic or paper bag containing 100 beads of two colours additional beads as needed. AIM To prove that both allele and genotype frequencies in a population would not remain constant if natural selection occurs. Natural selection is the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. INTRODUCTION Natural selection‚ the differential survival and reproduction of individuals was first proposed by

Introduction: 1 Vitamin D is critical for embryonic skeletal formation and long bone growth. Without vitamin D‚ the hypertrophic cell zone will expand because the cartilage fails to calcify leading to rickets. Protein disulfide isomerase A3 (PDIA3)‚ also known as ERp60‚ ERp57‚ Grp58‚ and 1‚25-MARRS‚ is a multifunctional protein that has been associated with rapid membrane-initiated signaling by 1α‚25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α‚25(OH)2D3) in several cell types.
