1.) Consider flower color in a hypothetical population of 7,000 flowers, red flowers (4,000), blueflowers (2,000) are dominant over pink flowers. If there are 1,000 pink flowers, find thefollowing:a. Frequency of dominant (red flower) alleleb. Frequency of recessive (pink flower) allelec. Frequency of each genotype (homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive,heterozygous)d. Make a Punnett square and use the rule of multiplication.
2. You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (a) is 26%. Using that 26%, calculate the following: A. The frequency of the "aa" genotype. B. The frequency of the "a" allele. C. The frequency of the "A" allele. D. The frequencies of the genotypes "AA" and "Aa." E. The frequencies of the two possible phenotypes if "A" is completely dominant over "a
About 7% of men in a population are red-green colour blind due to a sex-linked recessive gene. Assuming random mating in the population with respect to colour blindness; so What percentage of women would be expected to be heterozygous?
1) In cats, the allele for white fur(W) is completely dominant and will result in cats with all white fur in both the homozygous dominant and heterozygous cases. Suppose you look at 50 cats and notice that none of them are completely white. What's the allele frequency for the white fur allele in this population? 2) In carnations, the allele that makes red pigment (R) in flowers is incompletely dominant. Flowers that are red are homozygous dominant and those are pink are heterozygous. White flowers (r) are the result of the recessive allele. Suppose you look at a field of 100 carnations and notice 42 of the plants produce red flowers, 42 have pink flowers, and 16 produce white flowers. What's the allele frequency for both the red (R) and white (r) alleles?
3. Choose ONE trait observed in class and explain why one form of the trait is more frequent than the other form of the trait (i.e. why the dominant form is more frequent than the recessive form or vis-à-vis).
2.Skin colour in dolphins is determined by a single gene showing incomplete dominance giving rise to 3 phenotypes Brown, Pink & White. A survey of a large population of dolphins was carried out and the phenotypes recorded. However, a student who had some of the data stored on their phone fell overboard and unfortunately the data was lost. The only data saved was that the brown homozygous dominants (BB) were 64% of the population . a) What would be the percentage of pink heterozygotes and white homozygotes? b) What percentage of the gametes that give rise to the next generation of dolphins in this population will contain the b allele?
21% of a population is homozygous dominant, 50% is heterozygous and 29% is homozygous recessive. What percentage of the next generation is predicted to be homozygous recessive?
