Question
stand 32. in the Hardy Weinberg equilibrium equations, what does p stand for? a the frequency of the recessive homozygote genotype b. the frequency of the dominant homozygous genotype e. the frequency of the heterozygous genotype. d. the frequency of the dominant allele. e. the frequency of the recessive allele hthne hsygote o A genetic study conducted over multiple generations found that the frequency of genotypes in the first generation were: AA-0.24, Aa-0.62, aa-0.14. In the second generation, genotype frequencies shifted to: AA-0.12, Aa-0.78, aa-0.10. According to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can hypothesize 33. a natural selection is acting on the population. b, gene flow is occurring in the population. c. mating in this population is random. d. natural selection and gene flow could both be possible 34. Say baboons display two hair colors, brown and olive. Olive alleles are dominant over brown alieles. In a population of baboons you're studying, the frequency of brown hair is 0.26. What information do you know? a. The frequency of the heterozygous genotype b. The frequency of the dominant allele. c. The frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype d. The frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype e. The frequency of the recessive allele 35. When using the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equations, equilibrium - no evolution, a. True. b. False. A genetic study conducted over multiple generations found that the frequency of genotypes in the first generation were: AA-0.24, Aa-0.62, aa-0.14. In the second generation, genotype frequencies remained the same. According to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can hypothesize: 36. a. natural selection is acting on the population. b. mating in this population is random. c. gene flow is occurring in the population. d. natural selection and gene flow could both be possible.Explanation / Answer
32. Answer 'd' - the frequency of the dominant allele
Hardy Weinberg equilibrium equation : p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Where,
'p' represents the frequency of the dominant allele in the population
'q' repesents the frequency of the recessive allele in the population
p2 represents the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype
q2 represents the frequency of the recessive genotype and
2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype
35. Answer 'a' - True
According to Hardy Weinberg principle the allele and genotype frequencies of a population remains constant from generation to generation in the absence of evolutionary mechanisms.
The conditions for a population to remain at Hardy Weinberg equilibrium are:
* There should be no change in allelic frequency due to MUTATION
* No immigration or emigration of the population
* No natural selection
* A large breeding population and random mating
