Use this information to answer the next five questions. This graph illustrates the percent of carbohydrate (CHO) and fat used as fuel during exercise. During low to moderate intensity exercise, CHO and fat both play important roles as fuels in energy production. (Aerobic power = intensity of exercise) Graph of Fat and C-H-O versus exercise intensity Image Description Fat and C-H-O in relation to exercise intensity in a graph. For the activity power from 0 to 100, the fat percent diminishes from 60% to 0% and the C-H-O rate increases from 40% to 100%.

How can a gene be longer than an mRNA produced by that gene? For instance, the gene for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is over 2000 kb (kb = kilobases) long, but the mRNA that this gene produces and that is found in polyribosomes is approximately 14 kb long. What causes this discrepancy?

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder in homozygous recessives that causes death during the teenage years. If 4 in 10,000 newborn babies have the disease, what are the expected frequencies of the dominant (A1) and recessive (A2) alleles according to the Hardy-Weinberg model?
