- In a population, the allele frequencies of the ABO blood type alleles are A=0.2, B=0.3, and O=0.5 . If mating is random and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what percent of people having blood type A (AA, AO) are homozygous? Please express your answer as a percent and round it to two digits (such as 42 or 89).In tomatoes, red fruit (R) is dominant over yellow fruit (r). In a tomato plant population exhibiting Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, if allele r has a frequency of 0.66, what percentage of the population is homozygous dominant for this trait? Express your answer using three significant digits. Answer%Assuming there is random mating, find the gene frequencies, genotypic frequencies, and the proportionof individuals with the different blood types (Type A, B, AB and O) if the population is composed of thefollowing: Type A - 80 Type AB - 35Type B - 90 Type O - 195

If the frequency of allele A is 0.4, what fraction of the population is heterozygous? O A. 0.40 B. 0.60 C. 0.16 D. 0.48The frequency of allele A in a population is 0.8 and the frequency of allele a is 0.2. If the population mates randomly with respect to this locus, give all the possible matings among the genotypes at this locus and the expected proportion of each type of mating.In a population of 123 individuals, a locus has two alleles: E and e. If 30 individuals have the ee genotype, and the locus is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the frequency of the EE genotype? Round your answer to the second decimal place.
- A population of swallowtail butterflies has an allele frequency of 60 percent for one allele of a locus with two alleles. Out of 3,000 individuals, _______ should be homozygotes for the less common allele if the population is at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium.the frequency of allele a is 0.45 for a population inhardy-Weinberg equilibrium. What are the expectedfrequencies of genotypes AA, Aa, and aa?When a population is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium which one of the following is true? Group of answer choices Genotypic frequencies change generation after generation. One can calculate the recessive allele frequency directly from the number of homozygous recessive phenotypes seen. Individuals of the same genotype are most likely to mate. Allele frequencies change generation after generation.
