Tristan da Cunha is a group of small islands in themiddle of the Atlantic Ocean. In 1814, a group of 15British colonists founded a settlement on these islands.In 1885, 15 of the 19 males on the island were lost ina shipwreck. In the late 1960s, four cases of retinitispigmentosa, which progressively leads to blindness,were found among the 240 descendants of these settlers remaining on the island. The frequency of retinitis pigmentosa in Britain is about 1 in 6000. Explainthe high incidence of this disease on Tristan daCunha relative to that seen in Britain.
In a large, randomly mating population, the frequency of the allele (s)for sickle-cell hemoglobin is 0.028. The results of studies have shownthat people with the following genotypes at the beta-chain locus producethe following average numbers of offspring:Genotype Average numberof offspring producedSS 5Ss 6ss 0a. What will the frequency of the sickle-cell allele (s) be in the nextgeneration?b. What will the frequency of the sickle-cell allele be at equilibrium?
I asked this question before but the solution was not correct and I'm really trying to figure out how to do this to get the correct answer. Please show work!DNA typing is used to compare evidence DNA (E) left at a crime scene to two suspects(S1 and S2). Suspect 1 is excluded by the evidence, but suspect 2 remains included. What isthe frequency of suspect 2's genotype if the allelic frequencies in the population are f(A1) =0.1, f(A2) = 0.2, and f(A3) = 0.7, and the population is at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium?The answer is 0.49.

An individual who is heterozygous for 2 feelers with thin skin is crossed with an individual that has 3 feelers and is homozygous for thick skin.

The trait of blood pressure in humans has a frequency distributionthat is similar to a normal distribution. The following graph showsthe ranges of blood pressures for a selected population of people.The red line depicts the frequency distribution of the systolic pressuresfor the entire population. Several individuals with high bloodpressure were identified, and the blood pressures of their relativeswere determined. This frequency distribution is depicted with a blueline. (Note: The blue line does not include the people who wereidentified with high blood pressure; it includes only their relatives.) What do these data suggest with regard to a genetic basis for highblood pressure? What statistical approach could you use to determinethe heritability for this trait?

Instead the laws of probability may be used. The product law of probabilities says that when alleles for separate genes segregate independently, we can figure out the probability of a particular combined genotype by multiplying the probability of the alleles for each gene. 13.
