Question 2
Julia and Vinay are learning about cells in their high school Biology class. To gain a deeper understanding of cells, their teacher is having them perform a laboratory experiment to identify unknown cell types. Julia and Vinay must create a hypothesis based on the cell types they believe they will identify. Then they will be given three microscope slides that contain samples of different cell types. During the experiment, Julia and Vinay will answer analysis questions, and after the experiment, they will complete a laboratory report with a conclusion.

After Julia and Vinay got their microscope slides, they set them up on their microscope. The images show the three cell types Julia and Vinay viewed while looking under their microscope.

Question 25: To calculate the frequency of heterozygous individuals (2pq), we start with the frequency of homozygous recessive individuals (q² = 0.04). Then:

1. q = √0.04 = 0.2 (frequency of recessive allele)
2. p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8 (frequency of dominant allele)
3. 2pq = 2(0.8)(0.2) = 0.32 or 32%

So, the answer is: c. 32%.
