@2WSRehpogs are mythical creatures. They are small and not very smart. Rehpogs live on the ground in a flat,warm habitat. Their fur texture and color ranges from thick purple fur to thin pink fur, depending onallele distribution. The dominant fur allele (R) codes for thick purple fur. The recessive allele (r) codesfor thin pink fur. REMEMBER: a phenotype (fur color) is the physical expression of a genotype (two-letter code for the alleles present in that individual). Each individual has two alleles for fur color:XRR genotype is homozygous dominant = Thick purple fur phenotypeRr genotype is heterozygous = Thick purple fur (because of the presence of one dominant allele)rr genotype is homozygous recessive = Thin pink fur (because of the absence of a dominant allele)For the purposes of this experiment, Rehpogs mate once per year and produce two offspring each year.Rehpogs are monogamous, faithful and fertile.#3edCC$4rfV%5tgOll6byh&7O8nJLuijOLm(9kO<14)Oaltр-:;ctrl{[+? 2WSXThe Rehpogs in the original population that stayed in the warm environment has maintained their originalgenetic diversity of 50% dominant alleles for thick purple fur and 50% recessive alleles for thin pink fur.Remember that the original population of Rehpogs lived on the ground in a relatively flat habitat. Thisgroup is called Population A.The population has increased to where there is not enough food for everyone. About half of thisgenetically diverse group of Rehpogs (Population B) was sent out by the leader to find a suitable newhome in the uneven, rocky territory to the south. Population A stayed behind in the flat habitat.Unfortunately, an unexpected effect of the dominant allele for thick purple fur is vertigo. None of theRehpogs noticed this associated trait before they moved to the uneven, rocky territory because these littlecreatures do not get hurt if they fall over on level ground.Sadly, when the thick purple furred Rehpogs walk on pathways in the uneven, rocky territory, they tendto fall off cliffs and die. The uneven, rocky environment exerts selective pressure. Field studies showthat up to 50% of the homozygous dominant individuals in the uneven, rocky territory population diefrom falling off cliffs every year.Which group (Population A that stayed in the flat territory or Population B that moved to therocky territory) will change dominant allele frequency more quickly than the other?Explain your answer.3eC$4rfV¹ de%5ts'Qg6byh&V poN7Ouj*8Oim(9k✓O<F)O-рD:;{+1?

Please read the scenario below and answer the question (in bold) that follows: In humans, the ability to roll one's tongue is a dominant trait (T). A woman who can roll her tongue is married to a man who cannot roll his tongue. The couple's daughter, Nia, can roll her tongue though their son, Michael, cannot. If Nia were to (one day) marry a man who was heterozygous for the tongue-rolling trait, what percentage of their children would be able to roll their tongues? a. 0% b. 25% c. 50% d. 75% e. 100% M
Zombie “speed” is a trait determined by the alleles F and f at the speed gene, where fast is dominant to slow. Zombie “brain eating” is a trait determined by the alleles B and b at the brain-eating gene, with eating brains recessive to not eating brains.

A female Zombie that is ffbbDd has offspring with a male Zombie that is FfBbDd. a.What is the probability that their offspring is fast?
