Compute for the gene and genotype frequency of the population.Assuming these are all of the possible genotypes in the population what does ff+Ff+FF=
- 60 individuals have the genotype AA28 individuals have the genotype Aa12 individuals have the genotype aaWhat is the frequency of the A allele?Think of how many alleles in total?hint: add up the number of A alleles in this population: AA= 60+60 and Aa= 28.Add those together and divide by the total number of alleles.A population of dragons or Varanus dragonus has two alleles B and P encoding for phenotypes blue and purple scales, is dominant over B. You have population of 345 individuals. PP = 100, BP; =90 , and BB = 155 . What is the frequency of the P allele? Please use and round to four decimal points.What is the chi-square value of the pumpkin population? round up and use four decimal points After doing some crosses and genotyping some individuals, you determined that the number of individuals homozygous dominant for the largest pumpkin allele is 98, 80 are heterozygous for medium size, and 20 are homozygous recessive for small size.

(round to 2 decimal places)Have the student use the infomration obtain regarding the USA population to determine the “Expected” frequency and counts as well as having them to analyze the data and provide phenotype, genotype and allele frequencies plus the perform chi-square analyses. Have the student to complete every single empty square. For frequencies, (O-E)2/E and x^2 round to two decimal places. Use whole numbers for counts… people are counted in whole numbers!In carnations, the red pigment (RR) is incompletely dominant to white (rr). The heterozygote (Rr) is pink. In a randomly mating field of carnations, 42 plants were red, 178 plants were pink, and 180 plants were white (total =400). What is the best estimate of the allele ferequency, for the red allele in this population?
