1. If you have the dominant trait and one of your parents shows the recessive trait, what is your genotype for that trait? 2. If you have straight hair but all of your family members have wavy and curly hair, what can you conclude about your genotype? 3. Are dominant characteristics always more frequent in a population than recessive characteristics? Why or why not?

2. Dwarf lupine, a California wildflower, commonly has blue flowers, but some plants produce pink flowers. Flower color is controlled by one gene with blue dominant and pink recessive. One population has 3,291 plants with blue flowers and 25 plants with pink flowers, resulting in a total of 3,316 plants. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the expected number of plants that are heterozygous? Do you understand how to calculate the answer as being 526 plants?

3.) In a population that is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, 45 % of the individuals arehomozygous recessive for a certain trait. In a population of 15,500, how many of the individualswill be;a. homozygous dominant individualsb. heterozygous individuals
3. Albinism is a rare genetically inherited trait expressed in the phenotype of homozygous recessive individuals (aa). The most characteristic symptom is deficiency in skin and hair pigment production of melanin. This condition can occur among any human group as well as among other animal species. The average human frequency of albinism in North America is about 1 in 20,000. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg, what percentage of people in N.A. carry the albinism allele and probably do not realize it?
4. What would be the phenotypes, phenotypic ratio, and genotypes of the future kids, if the mother is heterozygous freckled and tall while the father has no freckles and heterozygous tall? Dominant traits: Tall (T) and with freckles (F)
1. Given that there's a science to back you up and you actually have the capability of producing an offspring with your desired traits, would you do it? What should the limitations be if you have to put a limit on this? 2. On the other hand, give some reasons why you will not choose to do it even if there's a science to back you up and you actually have the capability of producing an offspring with your desired traits.
1. In Population Genetics; The M and N groups are determined by two codominant alleles. In a random sample of 200 persons, 128 were found to belong to group M. Assuming random mating, what is the frequency of the N allele?

Calculate the following (show your work): a. the frequency of the aa genotype b. the frequency of the 'a' allele_ c. the frequency of the 'A' allele_ d. the frequency of the dominant phenotype_ You need to show your work to get full credit. HINT! The dominant phenotype is made out of 2 different genotypes AA and Aa
