Question
The gel image below shows 7 alleles, let's call them 1-7 in order of size, with 1 being the largest and 7 being the smallest. Imagine
the unlikely case that the 11 individuals represented in the gel image above were truly representative of the population. What is the
frequency (f) of allele 6? Give your answer as a percentage, to one decimal place, do not include the % symbol.
Answer: In the gel image below the frequency of allele 6 is 18 percent.
