If the genotype frequency of a homozygous recessive genotype is equal to 0.023 and a selection coefficient roughly 10% worse than the other genotypes (i.e., s = 0.1), what would we expect its frequency to be after natural selection?
A.) 0.015
B.) 0.0207
C.) It is impossible to answer given the information provided.
D.) 0.0023

In gerbils there is a recessive mutant gene that causes a lethal condition. For the purpose of this problem let the symbol A denote the normal allele and a the mutant. In heterozygote individuals who carry both versions of the allele (Aa), this causes a white spotting color pattern. Homozygotes for the mutant (aa) die as embryos and are never seen in live gerbils. Since the mutant allele is lethal in the homozygous form, natural selection will occur against the...

In the case of directional selection, if the advantageous allele (b) is recessive and a less advantageous allele (B) is dominant: A. b will be lost in the population because the dominant allele will increase in frequency by natural selection B. b will increase in frequency at the same speed as if it was a dominant advantageous allele, because what matters is the coefficient of selection and not if the allele is dominant or recessive C. b will increase in...

In a population of mice a particular locus has two alleles A1 (dominant) and A2 (recessive). There are 126 A1A1, 167 A1A2 and 88 A2A2. Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (3 pts)? In a population of Gragons, there are 3151 A1A1, 1678 A1A2 and 2014 A2A2 individuals. If the environment changes so that the homozygous recessive genotype suffers a reduction of fitness where its fitness is now 0.73, but the other genotypes are unaffected, what will be the frequency...

In recent years, some leopard populations have suffered from a loss of habitat. You are part of a research team that is studying the effects that decreased range has on these populations. Your team observed that a portion of one population relocated to the desert and merged with another small leopard population after its own habitat was threatened by deforestation. You have been assigned to lead the study of this new population and look at its gene pool make-up. In...

You have three genes on the same chromosome - A, B and C. Each gene has two alleles in a dominant/recessive relationship. For these genes the homozygous recessive has the mutant phenotype for that trait, the dominant phenotype = wild type for that trait. allele A is dominant to a; phenotype a = mutant for trait a; phenotype A = wild type for trait A allele B is dominant to b; phenotype b = mutant for trait b; phenotype B...
