- About 7% of men in a population are red-green colour blind due to a sex-linked recessive gene. Assuming random mating in the population with respect to colour blindness; What percentage of women would be expected to be heterozygous?arrow_forwardAmong a particular population of 100 plants, red flowers are dominant and yellow flowers are recessive. F is the dominant allele and f is the recessive allele. 40 plants are homozygous dominant • 44 plants are heterozygous 16 plants are homozygous recessive Use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate the equilibrium frequencies of each genotypearrow_forwardYou decide to examine call duration in Canadian toads at Big Lake near Edmonton. Call duration in the toads is determined by a single autosomal locus "noisy", at which there are two alleles (N & n). You observe three distinct call patterns in the toad population: Long duration, intermediate duration and short duration calls. Based on research from Dr. Phoney Balloni longer calling is dominant to short duration. On one evening at Big Lake you and your socially distanced assistants record the phenotypes of the toads in the table below. Phenotype No. of individuals Long 123 Intermediate 226 Short 101 Determine whether the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. a) What are the frequencies of N and n?. b) What are the expected frequencies for each phenotype? c) Is the population is in HW equilibrium?arrow_forward
- IN a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, as the frequencies of homozygous genotypes increase, the frequency of the heterozygous genotype _____arrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardLets say there exists a gene in the United States that comes in two alleles, the dominant A and the recessive a. The allele frequency of the dominant allele is 60% and the allele frequency of the recessive allele is 40% The population in genotyped and its found in the United States there are 36% Homozygous Dominant folk, 48% Homozygous Recessive folk, and 16% Homozygous recessive folk. Do you think there is any fitness advantage to any of these genotypes? Why or why not? View keyboard shortcutsarrow_forward
- Your cooky uncle died and bequeathed to you 100 lizards. Twenty-five are homozygous recessive. Is this lizard population in Hardy- homozygous dominant for the long tail gene and 65 are Weinberg equilibrium? You must show your work!arrow_forwardThe genotypic frequency of a given autosomal recessive condition is 1 in 5,400 people. The frequency of the dominant allele is: Group of answer choices 0.0136 0.986 0.972 0.117arrow_forwardWhat is the chi-square value of the population the original counts are the largest pumpkin allele is 98, 80 are heterozygous for medium size, and 20 are homozygous recessive for small size.arrow_forward
- Hi, I need help with this. I believe the answer is 0.2, but I also believe I might be working this incorrectly. We're using the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. Thanks!arrow_forwardPlease answer the attached questionarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about Hardy-Weinberg graphs is false? Group of answer choices The x-axis is always the dominant allelic frequency. The y-axis is the genotypic frequency. The maximum heterozygous genotypic frequency is where the dominant and recessive allelic frequencies intersect. As the dominant allelic frequency increases, the recessive genotypic frequency decreases.arrow_forward
