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…
I'm having trouble with my genetics study guide, and am stuck on this question. If someone could explain it with the work it would help me so much. Thank you! In humans, the inheritance of the ABO blood group system exhibits both complete dominance (alleles IA and IB are dominant to allele i) and codominance (alleles IA and IB). In addition, thalassemia shows incomplete dominance; heterozygotes (Tt) exhibit a mild form of the disease (thalassemia minor) and homozygotes (tt) have a more severe form (thalassemia major). A man has blood type A and his mother has blood type O. His wife has blood type AB. Both members of the couple have thalassemia minor. What is the probability that they will have a child with: a. thalassemia minor and blood type A? b. no anemia and blood type AB? c. thalassemia major and blood type B?
If the probability of being blood-type A is 1/8 and the probability of blood-type O is 1/2, what is the probability of being either blood-type A or O? a.5/8 b.1/2 c.1/8 d. 1/16 I know the answer is a. I just want to know the calculation (Multiplication or addition rules) and the steps that was taken to find the answer.
Suppose that you just learned that the narrow-sense heritability of blood pressuremeasured among a group of African Americans in Detroit, Michigan, is 0.4. What doesthis heritability tell us about genetic and environmental contributions to blood pressure?
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disease most common in those of African ancestry that results from the mutation of a single basepair. This mutation results in a change to the hemoglobin protein. In this experiment, “S” will represent the normal allele and “s” thesickle allele. They are codominant alleles. Therefore, SS is normal, Ss is not fatal but mildly symptomatic, and ss is debilitating,painful, and often fatal. After hundreds or even thousands of generations, both alleles are still common in those of African ancestry. How would you explain this?
For practice, let's work with blood groups. Three alleles exist for human blood types. They were not numbered, but instead marked with the letters for A, B and O. The labeling convention is : IA, IB, and Ii. IA and IB are codominant alleles, whereas Ii is the recessive allele for type O. Humans are diploid; every individual carries only two alleles. For the following question list all 6 possible Blood group genotypes. The first has been done for you below:
Given the allelic frequency of A = .5 , answer the following 1. What is the homozygous dominant frequency ? 2. What is the allellc of a? 3. What is the heterozygous frequency ?
. A gene called Q has two alleles, QFand QG, that encode alternative forms of a red blood cell protein thatallows blood group typing. A different, independentlysegregating gene called R has two alleles, RC and RD,permitting a different kind of blood group typing.

Using the HardyWeinberg Law in Human Genetics Suppose you are monitoring the allelic and genotypic frequencies of the MN blood group locus (see Question 2 for a description of the MN blood group) in a small human population. You find that for 1-year-old children, the genotypic frequencies are MM = 0.25, MN = 0.5, and NN = 0.25, whereas the genotypic frequencies for adults are MM = 0.3, MN = 0.4, and NN = 0.3. a. Compute the M and N allele frequencies for 1-year-olds and adults. b. Are the allele frequencies in equilibrium in this population? c. Are the genotypic frequencies in equilibrium?
Humans only have a few eye colors and only four ABO-based blood types. The same can be said for almost all traits. Based on genetic traits, humans are very similair in their DNA. How then, can DNA tests definitively identify individuals? (What is being looked at/tested?)
A group of people are studiedd with made up blood types AZ blood group which is a blood type controlled by a single gene with two loci.

A survey was taken to determine the blood types of children from marriages in which the wife had the blood group AB and the husband had blood type A but one of his parents is type O. The survey resulted in 250 type A, 90 type B, and 110 type AB children. Is the deviation from the expected significant?
