Question

Across 4. Many times, the phrase "recessive disease allele" implies a gene variation resulting in a defective 13. The greater the allelic variation, the greater chance that when separated and subjected to differing 15. Population genetics is concerned less with the alleles of an individual, and more with the of alleles selection pressures, the two populations willgenetically from each other in the population Down A mutant loss-of-function allele is at a low frequency in a population, and the disease it can cause is almost never observed. Heterozygotes have no signs or symptoms. This allele is therefore 10.

Explanation / Answer

4. carriers (heterozygous they never express the recessive trait)

10. recessive(rare disorders are some time due to recessive allele)

13. diverge (the two population will differ from each other)

15. frequency(this matters more than for selection hypothesis)
