    2.3 Problem 3 The Hardy-Weinberg equation is useful for predicting the percent of a hu- man population that may be heterozygous carriers of recessive alleles for certain genetic diseases. Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a human metabolic dis- order that results in mental retardation if it is untreated in infancy. In the United States, one out of approximately 10.000 babies is born with the disor- der. Approximately what percent of the population are heterozygous carriers of the recessive PKU allele? If you...

    In a population of Mendel's garden peas, the frequency of the dominant A (purple flower) allele is 80%. Letp represent the frequency of the A allele and q represent the frequency of the a allele. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what are the genotype frequencies? A. 16% AA, 40 % Aa, 44 % aa B. 80% AA, 10 % Aa, 10 % aa C. 50 % AA , 25 % As , 25 % aa * E....

    Two people who are “carriers” of (heterozygous) for Tay Sachs disease marry and plan a family. What is the probability that a child from this union will suffer from Tay Sachs disease. (Recall that this is an autosomal recessive disorder, that is, homozygous recessives have the disease.) a. Zero b. 0.25 c. 0.5 d. 0.75 e. 1.0 6. At Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, heterozygotes are the most common genotype in the population when- a. b. c. d . p> 0.67 q>0.67 and...

    Hardy-Weinberg Practice Problems: You need to list equations used and provide steps of problem solving. Providing answer itself is not enough for full grade. 1. You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 36%. Calculate the frequency of the heterozygous genotype, homozygous dominant genotype and homozygous recessive genotype. 2. You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 49%....

    Q3 Question 3 1 Point In a Hardy-Weinberg situation, suppose that cystic fibrosis (a rare genetic disorder caused by having two recessive alleles) occurs in approximately 1 out of 1600 births in Canada. What is the estimated proportion of the population that would be carriers for the disorder? Q4 Question 4 2 Points For some genetically linked disorders, the survival of the heterozygous individual may be less than that of a homozygous dominant individual (while homozygous recessive individuals still have...

    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...

    1. You are studying a population of sandblossoms (Linanthus parryae) that has individuals with blue and white flowers. The allele for white flowers (A) is dominant to the allele for blue flowers (a). In the population you survey, 91 out of 100 individuals have white flowers. Based on this information: a. Calculate the frequency of the A and a alleles. b. Calculate the numbers of each genotype. 2. A population of snapdragons (Antirrhinum hispanicum) has two additive alleles for flower...

    Please help me about question c)!!! 1. The table below shows the genotypic frequencies of A/A, A/a and a/a individuals in three human populations. "A" and "a" are two alleles of a gene coding for a protein involved in brain development (specifically, the trigeminal nerve). People who are heterozygous or homozygous A/A have one or more symptoms related to ACHOO syndrome, a very common condition whereby a person has the urge to sneeze upon sudden exposure to bright light (you...

    7. Why do dominant alleles tend to be advantageous and recessive alleles tend to be disadvantageous in most populations? 8. You are studying a population of parrots and you observe that there are two alleles for wing color. Allele 1 codes for green wings and is dominant over allele 2, which codes for red wings. Allele 2 is at a frequency of 70% of the population, what should be the frequency of allele 1 homozygotes? 9. You are studying a...

    The occurrence of the NN blood group genotype in the US population is 1 in 400, consider NN as the homozygous recessive genotype in this population. You sample 1,000 individuals from a large population for the MN blood group, which can easily be measured since co-dominance is involved (i.e., you can detect the heterozygotes). They are typed accordingly: BLOOD TYPE GENOTYPE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS RESULTING FREQUENCY M MM 490 0.49 MN MN 420 0.42 N NN 90 0.09 Using the...
