Question

Caus duapuve change. -n 14 answered ut of 2.00 A mouse breeder goes out of business and releases 100 true-breeding white mice and 400 true-breeding black mice. (A cross between two true breeding parents always produces offspring with the parental phenotype). The color is determined by a single gene with the Black allele (B) being completely dominant over the white allele (b). Assuming that these mice establish a new population and that all the conditions of the Hardy-Weinberg principle are met, what will be the proportion of white mice in the population after several generations? question Select one: a. 0.04 b. 0.2 o OC. 0.25 d. 0.36 o e.0.48 There are five conditions that must be met for a population to be at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Which of the following is NOT one of those conditions? ARMASI

Answer 1

Proportion of white mice according to Hardy-Weinberg principle=

Frequency of allele b is 100/500=0.2

and the probability of appereance of aa is a2= 0.2*0.2= 0.04 (Option a)

For Hardy-Weinberg principle ideal condition is large population so that error can be neglected.

But in current condition population is not large.
