Question
What is the chi-square value of the pumpkin population?
round up and use four decimal points
After doing some crosses and
genotyping some individuals, you determined that the number of individuals homozygous dominant for the largest pumpkin allele is 98, 80 are heterozygous for medium size, and 20 are homozygous
recessive for small size.

Mutants have black/brown striped legs and short mandibles. You perform a cross between wild type and mutant spiders. Your results : 5,502 wild type; 5,877 mutant; 69 black/brown striped, long mandibles; 52 black, short mandibles. What information does the recombination frequency tell you about the traits? (You will need to solve the RF first if you haven't done so in the other problem.) * A. Crossing over occurs frequently between the two traits. B. They are unlinked genes. C. They are located on separate chromosomes D. They are located very close together on the same chromosome.arrow_forwardI don’t understand the concept of Mendels formula. I don’t get how they used the ratios in table 3.4 to predict the number of genotypes in each generation and I was wondering if you could explain it better.

- If both parents are mixed hybrids, what is the phenotype in percentage (%) for the possible offspring? Use the reference sheet below to answer.arrow_forwardI need help calculating observed allelic frequencies. I'm in a biology lab and we did a classroom experiment where we were each given genotypes and simulated multiple generations by coinflip. This is the end data after multiple generations and we need to extrapolate p & q: AA individuals - 2 Aa individuals - 13 aa individuals - 5 My understanding is that the genotypic frequencies would simply be their %. So AA would be 0.1, Aa would be 0.65, and aa would be 0.25. This should mean that AA = 0.1 = p^2 and aa = 0.25 = q^2. Which should also mean that taking the square root of these numbers would give me p and q.... but they don't add up to 1. Squaring them gives me a p value of ~0.32 and a q value of 0.5. How is this possible? Shouldn't this method work to give me p and q since I know the exact genotypic frequencies? If anyone can clear up why this doesn't work, I would be extremely appreciative. Thank you!arrow_forwardIf you cross a mouse with Ff genotype with another mouse with Ff genotype, what is theprobability of exactly 2 out of 6 of their offspring also having Ff genotype?

- You have just started working in a field research laboratory focused on a species of Redtailed Hawks. They have been trying to understand the heritability of wingspan in this species. They’ve studied them in 2 different contexts. In the wild, and in an indoor enclosure that is temperature controlled and provides them with a standardized diet, eliminating environmental variance. In the wild, the total variance was determined to be 24 inches. In the enclosure, total variance between subjects was found to be 8 inches.In the enclosure, what is the VEnvironmental They ask you to figure out what the VEnvironmental (environmental variance) is for the hawks in the wild.
