Question 20You are studying a species of butterfly whose caterpillars produce different toxins based on the genotype of the Tox locus. Alleles Eand N are codominant. Individuals homozygous for E are emetic (cause vomiting), while caterpillars homozygous for N produce aneurotoxin. Heterozygotic caterpillars produce a toxin with both qualities.At the Bocas del Toro research station in Panama, you counted 45 neurotoxic caterpillars, 57 emetic caterpillars, and 82 caterpillarswith both toxic qualities. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, you calculated the expected genotypic frequencies: NN=0.218, NE= 0.498, EE= 0.284.Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? Why/why not?A) No, because the X^2 test statistic is greater than 3.84.B) No, because the genotype frequencies do not equal 1.c) Yes, because the X^2 test statistic is greater than 3.84.D Yes, because the genotype frequencies are approximately equal to 1.E) No, because the X^2 test statistic is less than 3.84.F) Yes, because the X^2 test statistic is less than 3.84.Last saved 1:10:05 PM70 minutes remainingP Type here to search
