Chapter 42, Problem 9TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
According to Hamilton, the altruistic gene is favored by the process of natural selection when rB>C. Here, r is the coefficient of relatedness, B is the recipient of the benefits, and C is the cost by the donor. The coefficient of relatedness determines how close the organism is related to the other one. This helps in determining if the sacrifice is valuable or not.

find the expected heterozygosity that is denoted by HT at the locus of C in total popuatlion.
For Mole Faction why do you sum T + C = 1 - A - G? Where did the 1 come from? What does it mean?
Also if the mole fraction for A is 0.22 where do you get 20% from?

None of the above The common morning glory (Ipomoea purpurea) is highly polymorphic for flower color. Part of this phenotypic variation is due to allelic variation at the P locus. This locus determines whether flowers will be in purple or white color. Further genetic studies showed that the purple color is dominant. Based on a survey, you found that out of a total of 1000 individuals in the population, 922 are purple and 78 are white. Assuming that this population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the allele frequency for the purple allele? A. 0.078 B. 0.279 C. 0.721 D. 0.922 E. 0.960arrow_forward
