If there are 12 rock pocket mice with dark fur and 4 with light-colored fur in a population, what is the value of q? Remember that light-colored fur is recessive. If the frequency of p in a population is 60% (0.6), what is the frequency of q? In a population of 1000 rock pocket mice, 360 have dark-colored fur. The others have light-colored fur. If the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what percentage of mice in the population are homozygous dominant dark-colored mice?

In a population of millipedes, the gene “R” determines their color. The color red is determined by the dominant “R” allele and the color orange is determined by the recessive “r” allele. A population of 100 millipedes consists of the following genotypes: 30 RR 44 Rr 26 rr Answer the following - You can represent the ratio/frequency as a fraction or a %. A. What is the genotypic ratio of this population of millipedes? B. What is the phenotypic ratio of this population of millipedes? C. What are the allele frequencies for “R” and “r” in this population of millipedes?

About 70 percent of all Caucasians can taste the chemical phenylthiocarbamide, and the remainder cannot. The ability to taste this chemical is determined by the dominant allele T, and the inability to taste is determined by the recessive allele t.

There are 5 individuals in a population. Blue is dominant to orange and there is 1 homozygous dominant, 1 heterozygote, and 3 homozygous recessive individuals. What is the observed allele frequency of the orange allele?
In a certain population of frogs, 120 are green, 60 are brownish-green, and 20 are brown. The allele for brown is denoted GB, and the allele for green is designated GG. These two alleles are incompletely dominant to each other. If this population were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, how many brownish-green frogs would you expect to observe?

A scientist is studying a wild population of Japanese morning glories. It is easy to separate genotypes at a flower color locus by their phenotypes. Red individuals are homozygous for the R allele, yellow individuals are homozygous for the Y allele, and orange individuals are heterozygous. If the number of individuals with the following genotypes are: RR: 831 RY: 33 YY: 442 Is the population in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium?
. In pea plants, height is controlled by a Dominant Allele (T) for Tall Height and by a Recessive Allele (t) for Short Height. If 96% of a population of pea plants have the tall phenotype, calculate the frequencies of dominant allele (T) & recessive (t) alleles. Out of the 96%, what is the estimation of how many are homozygous dominant vs. heterozygous? What is the frequency of the recessive phenotype?
