why A1 allele become not fixed in the population when the A2 allele is still present in this population?
Some allele which are deleterious and harmful to organism which carry them can be eliminated by natural selection as those individual will be dead due to expression of this allele and allele can't pass in next generation if individual die before reproducing.
Another allele which can pass in next generation due to reproduction of that organism, will still present in population.

Question 2: In an outbreeding diploid population, an autosomal locus has two alleles, A1 and A2. You observe the allele frequencies of A1 and A2 are both equal to 0.5, and the relative fitnesses of the three genotypes (A1A1, A1A2, and A2A2) are equal to 2, 1.5, and 1, respectively. A) Which allele will become fixed in this population? (1 point) **The recessive beneficial allele A2A2 will eventually become fixed in the population (A2A2=1) B) What is the allele frequency...
A mainland population of 1000 blue iguanas have the neutral alleles A1 and A2 with frequencies of A1 = 0.50 and A2 = 0.50. A new population of blue iguanas is founded on Lizard Island with a population size of 10 males and 15 females. The neutral alleles A1 and A2 are present in the population with frequencies of A1 = 0.30 and A2 = 0.70. Migrants begin moving from the mainland to Lizard Island at a rate of 1...
p is the frequency of a new mutation: -i.e. In a population containing only allele A2, an allele mutates into allele A1 Question: A single mutant allele A2 would start at p=0.1 in a population with ____ (how many) individuals? A.) 10 B.) 5 C.) 20
In a population of mice, there are two alleles of the A locus (A1 and A2). Tests showed that in this population there are 300 mice of genotype A1A1, 200 of A1A2 and 250 of A2A2. What is the frequency of the A2 allele in the population? (enter as decimal- with zero & rounded to nearest hundredth)
4. Say we have a population, with Ne = 100, containing two alleles, A1 and A2 at frequencies 0.6 and 0.4, respectively. We leave this population alone for 10000 generations (keeping its size constant), then come back to find that the allele frequencies are still 0.6 and 0.4. a) Explain why this would be evidence that selection is acting in this population. b) Which genotype would you expect to have the highest fitness in this case? Explain.
We're considering a fully recessive, deleterious (harmful) mutation (A2) at an allele frequency of q = 0.01 (one percent) in a large outbreeding population. Thus p(A1) = 0.99. 1. What is the population frequency of A2A2 homozygotes? 2. What is the population frequency of A1A2 heterozygotes? 3. Of all the A2 alleles in the population, what proportion are in heterozygotes? 4. And what proportion are in homozygotes? 5. Now, your country starts a policy of sterilizing all the affected individuals...

An allele, A1, in a diploid population of size N, starts at an allele frequency of 0.7. What is the expected allele frequency in the next generation? In the 100thgeneration? What is the probability that the allele frequency will increase in the next generation? If you follow 100 populations that start with the same conditions for millions of generations, how many would you expect to be fixed for A1?
QUESTION 18 Consider three cases of selection at a dialleic locus with alleles A1 and A2: Relative Fitnesses A2A2 A IAI A142 A2A2 - AIA A142 1242 AZAZ 1 0 .7 0.7 10.9 0.7 Initial Freq. of A1 -0.01; Generations - 500: Population size - Infinite. Al other conditions set to zero. Run the above model in the Alleel program Why does case 1 take so long to start to increase in frequency? Because natural selection can only act on...
In a large random-mating population of lab mice, the A1 allele is dominate and individuals that express this phenotype have a higher fitness than the A2A2 wild-type mice. The fitnesses are 1 and .75 respectively. Initially the allele frequencies are A1=0.4 and A2=0.6 Assume each generation has 100 zygotes form In the first generation, how many individuals will fail to reproduce? What will the new frequencies of the A1 allele be?
