4. In a given population, 16% of the population has blue eyes and 84% has brown eyes. Although eye color is a polygenic trait, let us assume for this problem that the brown-eyed allele is dominant to the blue-eyed allele and that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. What are the gene frequencies for brown eyed and blue-eyed alleles? = '16 Pa Brown-eyed allele frequency: _ qe 0.4 Pa 0.4 Blue-eyed allele frequency: - In this same population, there are...

There are approximately 331 million people in the United States. It is estimated that 1 out of every 700 people in the US have polycystic kidney disease. That means that 699 out of every 700 people are healthy. Answer the following questions using this information, your answers to the previous question, and the Hardy-Weinberg equation. Show your work and include the variable/s you are solving for in each question. a. What is the frequency of healthy people? (Round to the...
