Question

In a populaiton of Southwestern Jackalopes, you obseve the following numbers of genotypes for the A locus:

AA = 10

Aa = 15

aa = 5

Given these amounts, what are the genotype and allele frequencies in this population? (please round to 2 significant figures)

p2 = ____

2pq=____

q2= _____

p=____

q=____

Assuming the AA genotype has a fitness of 0.5 (WAA = 0.5), what are the expected allele and genotype frequencies in the next generation?

p=___

q=___

p2=___

2pq=___

q2=____

Did out population of Southwestern Jackalopes evolve? (yes or no)

Explanation / Answer

Total numbers of genotypes =30,

So, Frequencie of

p^2 = 0.33 2pq = 0.49 q^2 = 0.18 p = 0.58 q = 0.42

population of Southwestern Jackalopes evolve -- No
