Question

Mutation changes the frequency of a specific allele in the population rapidly than selection. Genetic drift: If the frequency of homozygous recessive individuals in a population is 0.04, what is the frequency of the dominant allele? Assume the population is in equilibrium and only the dominant and recessive alleles exist. If a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, then is subsequent generations, one can expect that: The offspring of inbred zoo animals survive the offspring from noninbred animals. In the human genome: It is currently estimated that the human proteome contains proteins. In a large population, the frequency of a recessive allele is always lower than the frequency of a dominant allele.
