Under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, if a population exists that contains 2 alleles only, each has a respective frequency:p=0.3q=0.7then, after 10 (or 20, or 50, or 100) generations, the resulting frequencies will be?

The ability to breathe fire in dragons is controlled by a single gene with two alleles. The fire-breathing allele (F) is dominant to the non-fire breathing allele (f) In a population of 600 dragons, 150 dragons are non-fire breathing (ff) and the rest can breathe fire (either FF or Ff). The population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The frequency of the dominant allele (F) is represented by "p" and the frequency of the recessive allele (f) is represented by "q". Recall the allele frequency is p+q = 1 and the Hardy-Weinburg equation is p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1. 5. +. A. What is the frequency of the recessive allele (f)? Hint: you can figure out the frequency of ff, which is equal to q2, but then you need to solve for q B. What is the frequency of heterozygous indrviduals (Ff) in the bopulation? Hint: this would be equal to 2pq. You already solved for q, so you need to determine p before you can solve for 2pq.

The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele and genotype frequencies remain constant from one generation to the next, as long as specific conditions are met. Choose Yes or No for the conditions that must be met from the providied statement below. 1. Mutations are exponentially occuring   2. All member of the population breed   3. Everyone produces the same number of offspring   4. The population is infinitely large   5. There is no migration in or out of the population   6. No net mutations are occuring   7. Natural selection of beneficial traits is occuring   8. Natural selection is not occuring   9. All mating is completely random   10. Offspring are able to migrate out of the population

Given the allele frequencies, determine the genotypic proportions predicted for a locus in a population at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Consider a population that is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium at a locus with two alleles, A and a, at frequencies of p and q, respectively. Assuming the population remains in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the expected frequency of Aa heterozygotes after 100 generations? 0.5 p2 2pq O1

Pretend that you are comparing the actual genotype distribution for a population with the distribution of genotypes predicted by the Hardy-Weinberg theorem.  So your hypothesis is that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (i.e. that actual population data fit the Hardy-Weinberg expectations).  If you carry out a chisquare goodness of fit test and calculate a total chisquare value of 0.03 with 1 degree of freedom (see table), what does this mean? (select all true statements)a) The data do NOT fit the hypothesized distribution.b) The data do fit the hypothesized distribution well enough, so we accept the hypothesis at this time (i.e. we cannot reject the hypothesis). c) The probability that the data came from a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is too small, so we reject the hypothesis.d) The probability that the data came from a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is too big, so we reject the hypothesis.e) The data support Hardy-Weinberg expectations – there is no…

1)  In smurfs, blue tails are dominant to red tails.  You observe the following distribution in a smurf population: 214 blue tailed individuals genotype BB 37 blue tailed individuals genotype Bb 19 red tailed individuals genotype bb Is this population in HW equilibrium for the blue tail gene?  Show your work.  If the population is not in HW equilibrium, what might me causing the disequilibrium?

The frequency of two alleles in a gene pool is 0.19 (A) and .81 (a). Assume hardy-Weinberg equilibrium Calculate the percentage of heterozygous individuals in the population Calculate the percentage of homozygous recessives in the population

Consider an autosomal locus with alleles A and a. If the the allele frequencies are as follows Freq(A) = 0.4, Freq(a) = 0.6. , then what is the predicted frequency of heterozygous Aa individuals, assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Freq(Aa) = ? Enter a number between 0 and 1, inclusive, for example 0.33

The UNF penguin lab decided to study the elusive polka dot penguin of Patagonia. They trapped a majority of the population using gummy worms as bait and collected the following information. Observed Genotype Frequencies (not in HWE) AA: 0.464 Aa: 0.427 aa: 0.109 If this population was in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, what would be the expected genotype frequency for the heterozygotes? Retain 3 decimal places.
