In the series "Lost" 20 individuals crashed on a deserted island. One of the many alternate realities of that show was that they were never found and started a new population that was completely isolated from the rest of the world. Two of the individuals carried the allele for the recessive time-travel gene. (Hence, they are carriers and are unable to travel through time). No one who crashed on the island was able to travel through time (despite the creators wanting us to think they could). If the frequency of this allele does not change as the population grows, what will be the incidence of the ability to travel through time on the island? (Hint: You are looking for the number of recessives or q.)
