8 Rosettes are the dominant coat type (R) in guinea pigs while smooth coat is recessive (r). Of 1630 guinea pigs observed on an expedition in South America, 1190 have rosettes and 440 present with a smooth coat. a. If this muddle of guinea pigs is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for the hair coat locus, what is the frequency of the recessive allele?
You are examining heritability of traits implicated in disease resistance/avoidance in snails. Given the values below determine heritability. Trait VG VE VP H2 A. Level of oxidative molecules in the blood 5.33 0.65 B. Phototaxis toward dark habitat, which reduces exposure to parasites 1.36 4.72 C. Presences of proteins implicated in parasite recognition in the blood 4.26 1.63 You are examining heritability of traits implicated in disease resistance/avoidance in snails. Given the heritability values you calculated above, which trait would you select for to increase the frequency of resistant snails in the fewest number of generations and why?
I'm so confused with these table, how do I find the number for each one. I can do the formula but the rest im confused. Biology II. Please show me how to do it for I can practice. In a class of 20 biology students, 12 have the recessive disorder, chronic whining syndrome. Use the Hardy-Weinberg equations to determine the frequency of the recessive allele for the chronic whining disorder within the class of 20 students.
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?
Linked Genes While working with a type of beetle that is normally smooth and large, you discover two mutations that lead to the recessive phenotypes, bumpy and small, respectively. For the body type (i.e., smooth or bumpy) use S or s to designate the alleles. For the size (i.e., large or small) use L or l to designate the alleles. You cross two true-breeding parents to get all F1 beetles that are large and smooth. You cross the F1 to true-breeding small, bumpy beetles and get: 228 large and smooth, 19 small and smooth, 16 large and bumpy, 237 small and bumpy. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of the two parental beetles (P generation)? Calculate the distance in cM between the S and L genes, using the information from the cross above. Now draw a linear genetic map of these two genes. Another gene for beetle body color, gene W, is found to be 5 cM from the S gene. Indicate the TWO places where this gene may fall in relation to the other two genes on the linear genetic map…
I have a biology question, this is a matching question, which is only used once: The phenotype of the heterozygote is a blending of the phenotypes of both homozygotes. One allele masks the expression of the only other allele for the trait. One gene pair will interact so as to control the expression of a second gene pair One example is the ABO blood group system. When 3 or more pairs of genes control the expression of a trait. matched with: multiple alleles incomplete dominance polygenics dominance epistasis
The expression levels for two genes measured at four times are: Compute the correlation coefficient for this pair of genes. Make a plot of the gene1 levelsagainstthe gene 2levels.Isthe informationinthe plot consistent with the implication of the correlation coefficient? Comment on potential hazards of using the correlation coefficient based on your findings.
In an assessment of learning in Drosophila, flies were trained to avoid certain olfactory cues. In one population, a mean of 8.5 trials was required. A subgroup of this parental population that was trained most quickly (mean = 6.0) was interbred, and their progeny were examined. These flies demonstrated a mean training value of 7.5. Calculate realized heritability for olfactory learning in Drosophila.
The ability to taste the compound phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) is controlled by a dominant allele T. Individuals homozygous for the recessive allele t are unable to taste PTC. In a genetics class of 125 students, 88 can taste PTC and 37 cannot. Calculate the frequency of the T and t alleles in this population and the frequency of the genotypes.
Example: I go to a different population of fruit flies that have the same two alleles for eye-color. I suspect that the alleles occur in different frequencies in this second population. I sample 1000 flies and discover 10 that have brown eyes. What are the estimated frequencies of the "R" and "r" alleles in this population? Answer: Again, p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1. The term q2 = the relative frequency of homozygous recessive individuals, which corresponds to the ten brown-eyed flies I counted out of 1000 flies sampled. Thus, q2 = 10/1000 = 1/100. q = the square root of 1/100 or 0.1. Thus the frequency of "r" in this second population is 0.1 and the frequency of the "R" allele is 1 - q or 0.9. Problem 1: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disease caused by the build-up of the byproducts of metabolizing phenylalanine. It is caused by a defective, recessive allele. If a child is homozygous for this recessive allele, it will develop PKU. In the United States, PKU is detected in approximately 1 in 10,000…
Sixteen percent (16%) of the population is homozygous recessive for a trait. What are the frequencies of the dominant and recessive alleles of that trait?
