Three identical isosceles triangles are joined together to make a trapezium. Each triangle has base b cm and height h cm. Work out an expression, in terms of b and h for the area of the trapezium.

Formula for the Area of a triangle: A = (base x height)/ 2
Here we have three identical triangles.
Therefore the formula for the Area of the three triangles: A = (b x h) x 3 / 2 = A of trapeziu...

In a population of 1000 lemmings there are two alleles for skin colour, the dominant colour being cream (C) and the recessive being white (c). 350 individuals have white skin. Use Hardy-Weinberg to predict the number of homozygous recessive individuals.

Hardy-Weinberg Principle states that in a population of randomly mating individuals:
p + q = 1
p²+2pq+q²=1
White fur = homozygous recessive = q² = 350/100 =...
