In a large population of chimpanzees,  there is a recessive genetic condition telactalase (fictional).  Assume the Hardy-Weinberg distribution.  If the frequency of dominant allele is 0.77 then what fraction of the population has telactalase ? Giver your answer with four digits parts the decimal point.

A form of learning disabilities and speech impairment results from a recessive mutation in the HERC2 gene. The next 4 questions are about this mutation. In a small Amish village in Ohio, about 5 per 1000 births are affected with this disorder.  Assume Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. What is the frequency of the dominant WT HERC2 allele in this small village? A form of learning disabilities and speech impairment results from a recessive mutation in the HERC2 gene. The next 4 questions are about this mutation. Part a: In a small Amish village in Ohio, about 5 per 1000 births are affected with this disorder.  Assume Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. What is the frequency of the dominant WT HERC2 allele in this small village? a)0.005 b)0.995 c)0.07 d)0.93   Part b: What is the estimated total number of homozygous dominant individuals in this village of 1000 people? a) 70 b) 930 c) 860 d) 140

Hitchhikers thumb is a recessive trait. We'll use: H=non-hitchhikers thumb allele and h=hitchhikers thumb allele. Suppose we sample our Bi 213 class and find that 72 students have a hitchhiker's thumb, while 128 do not. Assume that the class population is in HW-equilibrium with respect to this locus. How many carriers (individuals who carry one copy of the recessive hitchhiker's thumb allele) are there in our class? (Round off your answer to the nearest 1 individual.)

Please answer the following question form the Image provided:

suppose two alleles exist for gene A in a population of fruit flies.  Alleles "A" is dominat over allele "a".  Suppose the frequency of the "A" allele = 0.4, calculate the expected frequency of allele "a" - give answer as a decimal.

Tay-Sachs disease in humans is caused by a recessive allele. The disease is characterized by mental deficiency and blindness, with death occurring by 4 years of age. Among Ashkenazi Jews of central European ancestry, about 1 in 3600 children is born with the disease. Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and calculate the frequency of the Tay- Sachs allele in this population. Round your answer to the nearest 0.001. Type your answer...

Whether or not a person has cheek dimples is an autosomally inherited character due to variation in a single gene. Having cheek dimples (D) is dominant to not having cheek dimple s (d).In a population of 28,000 Greek children, 3,500 had cheek dimples and the rest did not. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, A. what are the frequencies of the two alleles? B. how many of the children do you expect to be heterozygous?

An allele of the G6PD gene acts in a recessive manner to cause sensitivity to fava beans, resulting in ahemolytic reaction (lysis of red blood cells) afteringestion of the beans. The same allele also confersdominant resistance to malaria. The heterozygote hasan advantage in a region where malaria is prevalent.Will the equilibrium frequency (qe) be the same foran African and a North American country? Whatfactors affect qe?

Heterozygote advantage is an interesting condition in those individuals who have one of each allele (dominant and recessive) have a higher survival rate than those individuals who are either homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive.  Sickle-cell anemia is such a genetic disease associated with the recessive allele. Normal homozygous individuals (SS) have normal blood cells that are easily infected with the malarial parasite. Thus, many of these individuals become very ill from the parasite and many die. Individuals homozygous for the sickle-cell trait (ss) have red blood cells that readily collapse when deoxygenated. Although malaria cannot grow in these red blood cells, individuals often die because of the genetic defect. However, individuals with the heterozygous condition (Ss) have some sickling of red blood cells, but generally not enough to cause mortality. In addition, malaria cannot survive well within these "partially defective" red blood cells. Thus, heterozygotes tend to…
