•If Albinos appear in 1in 25,000 births (0.004%) in a population. From your knowledge of the genetics of the hardy weinberg principle calculate the percentage of the heterozygous carriers in the population. Correct to 2 decimal places. Answer:
A population is made up of individuals where 77 have the A1A1 genotype, 65 have the A1 A2 genotype, and 123 have the A2A2 genotype. What is the allele frequency of A1? Answer to 2 decimal places.
There is a population of feral cats with the following allele frequencies: p = .6 and q = .4 What is the expected genotype ratio for heterozygous individuals? Can you show the work please
This lab exercise requires that we count certain Mendelian traits among students present in the lab. Your professor will explain each trait being addressed and will then ask students to identify if they are dominant or recessive for that specific trait. The collected traits will then be plugged into the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium formula in order to calculate frequency of Homozygous dominant, Heterozygous and Homozygous recessive individuals in the same. p2 + 2pq + q2 = 100 given data: trait: hair swirl 19 individuals total. 10 had the homozygous dominant hair swirl trait: clockwise the nine other were recessive please do a step by step explanation with the calculation using this data, as I am very unfamiliar with what values mean what and the equation itself thank you!
There are 100 Hodags in an isolated population. Ninety-six have eyes that glow red, whereas four have eyes that glow green. If the four green-eyed hodags (4%) represent the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype, please calculate the following: 3a. the frequency of the recessive allele (round to the nearest tenth)
I'm confused about how I would figure out these two questions as I don't really understand the difference or where to start. What would genotypic frequencies be for Wildrose at pt-8 if it were in equilibrium? and How many individuals (to 2 decimal places) of each genotype would there be from Wildrose at pt-8 if it were in equilibrium?
Among a particular population of 100 plants, red flowers are dominant and yellow flowers are recessive. F is the dominant allele and f is the recessive allele. 40 plants are homozygous dominant • 44 plants are heterozygous 16 plants are homozygous recessive Use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate the equilibrium frequencies of each genotype
in a population of 500 individuals genetic analysis reveals there are 216 AA homozygotes 154 Aa heterozygotes and 130 aa homozygous calculate the genotypic and allele frequencies
A dominant phenotype you are studying is present in 8.25% of people in a population you are studying. If the population includes 1000 people, how many people are carriers if the population is under Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
The Valyrian elders are doing projections about the future and want to calculate the frequencies of certain genotypes in the next generation. They are only interested in figuring out what proportion of the next generation will bear the signature Valyrian silver hair phenotype. (Assume the allele frequencies remain unchanged from the first part of this question.) A-What will the frequency of the AA genotype be? b-What will the frequency of the Aa genotype be?
Q.No.1. Can you always ascertain an organism’s genotype for a particular locus if you know its phenotype? Conversely, if you are given an organism’s genotype for a locus, can you always reliably predict its phenotype? Explain.
Sickle Cell Anemia is an example of "balancing selection" in which natural selection works against the extremes of a trait and favors the intermediate phenotype (e.g. the heterozygous "carriers" of the sickle cell trait) True or false?
