- Given the following information, how would you determine the allele frequencies for the B allele and the b allele? How would you determine the genotype frequencies for the BB, Bb, and bb genotypes?
- The allele for the hair pattern widow's peak is dominant. In a population of 1000 individuals, 510 show the dominant phenotype. How many individuals would you expect of each of the possible 3 genotypes for this trait? How do you answer this?
- What was the most important impact of Hardy Weinberg law of equilibrium?
- In a population that is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, 16% of the individuals show the recessive trait. What is the frequency of the dominant allele in the population?
- What was the purpose of Hardy and Weinberg's work?
- The number of trout in a lake drops when the lake is polluted. The trout population increases, but the allele frequency is different than it was before the pollution. What type of effect ls this?
- What happens when a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
- What does the term Gene pool mean?
- Calculate the number of recessive allele in hardy weinberg population of 200 individuals if frequency of dominant allele is 0.7?
- Why do populations rarely fulfill the Hardy-Weinberg conditions?
- In a poppopulation of 800,approximately 16% ofpersons have ear lobes attached to the side of the face (recessive phenotype). Calculate the frequency of the dominant allele?
- How to calculate the frequency of heterozygous (Mm) in a random mating population if the total frequency of dominant phenotype is 0.19?
- Within a population of butterflies , the color brown (B) is dominant over the color white(b) .40% of all butterflies are white. Given this simple information , calculate the percentage of butterflies in the population that are heterozygous ?
