The allele for free earlobes is dominant to the allele for attached earlobes. Which of these is closest to the allele frequency in the founding population? 0.1 a, 0.9 A 0.2 a, 0.8 A 0.5a, 0.5A 0.8 a, 0.2 A 0.4 a, 0.6 A If one assumes that Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium applies to the population of colonists on this planet, about how many people will have attached earlobes when the planet's population reaches 10.000? 100 400 800 1.000 10.000 The adaptive advantage associated with the filamentous nature of fungal mycelia is primarily related to the ability to form haustoria and parasitize other organisms. avoiding sexual reproduction until the environment changes. the potential to inhabit almost all terrestrial habitats. an extensive surface area well suited for invasive growth and absorptive nutrition.
