Question 1.You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 36%. Using that 36%, calculate the following: A) The frequency of the "aa" genotype. B) The frequency of the "a" allele. C) frequency of the a allele, then the frequency is 60%. D) The frequency of the "A" allele. E) frequency of A is by definition equal to p, so the answer is 40%. F) The frequencies of the genotypes "AA" and "Aa." G)The frequencies of the two possible phenotypes if "A" is completely dominant over "a."
(1 point) Humans with the genotypes DD and Dd show the Rh+ blood phenotype, whereas those with the genotype dd show the Rh- blood phenotype.

A species of butterfly shows variation in the length of the antennae. You measure antennae in a butterfly population and find the mean to be 15 mm. You calculate a heritability of antennae length to be 1 (h2 = 1). %3D That summer, there is a severe drought. Many of the butterflies die and only a few survive to reproduce. The surviving butterflies have a mean antennae length of 17 mm. a) What is the predicted mean limb-length of the offspring of the surviving butterflies? [ Select ] b) What type of selection was acting on antennae length in these butterflies? [ Select ] c) Five years later, you go back and measure antennae length in this butterfly population again. Every butterfly in the population has antennae measuring 16 mm. What is the heritability of antennae length in this population now? [Select ]
The equation p2+ 2pq + q2= 1 representing theHardy-Weinberg proportions examines genes withonly two alleles in a population.a. Derive a similar equation describing the equilibrium proportions of genotypes for a gene withthree alleles. [Hint: Remember that the HardyWeinberg equation can be written as the binomialexpansion (p + q)2.]b. A single gene with three alleles (IA, IB, and i) isresponsible for the ABO blood groups. Individualswith blood type A can be either IA IAor IA i;those with blood type B can be either IB IBor IB i;people with AB blood are IA IB, and type O individuals are ii. Among Armenians, the frequency of IAis0.360, the frequency of IBis 0.104, and the frequencyof i is 0.536. Calculate the frequencies of individuals in this population with the four possible bloodtypes, assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.In Problems 15–17, you will see that because matingbetween individuals within populations at Hardy-Weinbergequilibrium is random, it is possible to predict…

In corn, kernel color is governed by a dominant allele for white color (W) and by a recessive allele for yellow (w). A random sample of 152 kernels from a population that is in Hardy- Weinberg equilibrium reveals that 35 kernels are yellow and 117 kernels are white.

In a large herd of 5468 sheep, 76 animals have yellow fat, and the rest of the members of the herd have white fat. Yellow fat is inherited as a recessive trait. This herd is assumed to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. A. What are the frequencies of the white and yellow fat alleles in this population? B. Approximately how many sheep with white fat are heterozygous carriers of the yellow allele?
A mountain region has a population of 5,000 mountain goats. You score these animals for the R locus and find that this locus has two alleles, R (dominant) and r (recessive). 3200 individuals are homozygous dominant, 1,600 are heterozygous, and 200 are homozygous recessive. a) Calculate the allele frequencies for this population. Show your work. b) Calculate the observed genotypic frequencies for this population. Show your work. c) Calculate the expected genotype frequencies if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Show your work. d) Does this population appear to be at H-W equilibrium? Why or why not? (You do not need to analyze this statistically).
