Question
Please help:
As the amount of time that two populations are separated increases
a.the F-statistic becomes irrelevant in quantifying population substructure
b.the difference in allele frequencies should also increase until each population is completely fixed for separate alleles
c.there is no influence on subsequent changes in allele frequencies in each population
d.as the magnitude of genetic distance between them decreases
e.selectively neutral loci always remain at identical frequencies in the two populations

- I. A population called the founder generation, consisting of 2000 AA individuals, 2000 Aa individuals, and 6000 aa individuals is established on a remote island. Mating within this population occurs at random, the three genotypes are selectively neutral, and mutations occur at a negligible rate. *help needed for sub questions d-f. a. What are the frequencies of alleles A and a in thefounder generation?b. Is the founder generation at Hardy-Weinbergequilibrium?c. What is the frequency of the A allele in the secondgeneration (that is, the generation subsequent to thefounder generation)?d. What are the frequencies for the AA, Aa, and aagenotypes in the second generation?e. Is the second generation at Hardy-Weinbergequilibrium?f. What are the frequencies for the AA, Aa, and aagenotypes in the third generation?arrow_forwardUse the provided x2 table below to determine whether this population is in HWE at the M locus (c) What is the P value that corresponds to this Chi-square (X2) value? (d) is the population in HWE? (e) Mention 3 reasons why most populations are not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.arrow_forwardplease help with these two questions: 1. Which of these statements is/are NOT true about genetic drift? a. Statement 3. Genetic drift does not occur in large populations. b. Both statements 2 and 3. c. Statement 2. Genetic drift happens faster in large populations than in small ones. d. Statement 1. Genetic drift can cause the loss of an allele in a species. e. Both statements 1 and 2. 2. A genetic bottleneck in a population often results in what? a. Loss of alleles. b. None of the above. c. An increase in genetic drift. d. All of the above. e. Loss of genetic diversity.arrow_forward
- Consider 10 populations that have the genotype frequencies shown in the following table: Population A/A A/a a/a 1 1.0 0.0 0.0 2 0.0 1.0 0.0 3 0.0 0.0 1.0 4 0.50 0.25 0.25 5 0.25 0.25 0.50 6 0.25 0.50 0.25 7 0.33 0.33 0.33 8 0.04 0.32 0.64 9 0.64 0.32 0.04 10 0.986049 0.013902 0.000049 a. Which of the populations are in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium? b. What are p and q in each population? c. In population 10, the A → a mutation rate is discovered to be 5 × 10 −6. What must be the fitness of the a /a phenotype if the population is at equilibrium? d. In population 6, the a allele is deleterious; furthermore, the A allele is incompletely dominant; so A/A is perfectly fit, A/a has a fitness of 0.8, and a/a has afitness of 0.6. If there is no mutation, what will p and q be in the next generation?arrow_forward. A chicken breeder is working with a population in whichthe mean number of eggs laid per hen in one month is 28and the variance is 5 eggs2. The narrow-sense heritabilityis known to be 0.8. Given this information, can the breeder expect that the population will respond to selectionfor an increase in the number of eggs per hen in the nextgeneration?a. No, applying selection is always risky and a breedernever knows what to expect.b. No, a breeder needs to know the broad-senseheritability to know what to expect.c. Yes, since the narrow-sense heritability is close to1 (0.8), then we would expect selective breeding couldlead to increased egg production in the next generation.d. Yes, since the variance is greater than 0.e. Both c and d are correct.arrow_forwardIllustrate (Draw) the following using the punnett square method:arrow_forward
- When calculating heritability in finch beak size using parent/offspring data, we find that 70 percent of the variation in the trait is due to genetics. What might explain the remainder of the variation? Select all that apply. A. nutrition B. color C. precipitation D. stress E. rarity F. temperaturearrow_forwardA. Population 1 is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium; the frequency of allele A is 0.5. B. Two of the populations are not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.arrow_forwardMany genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle-cell disease are due to mutations in a recessive allele. You have sampled an isolated population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 36%. Using that 36%, calculate: 1a. the frequency of the "aa" genotype.
