Assume a random mating population of 100 diploid individuals (N=100) that has been obligately outbreeding for many, many generations so that there is no IBD carried forward into the current generation. How much heterozygosity do you expect in this population?
Group of answer choices
A. 0.005
B. 0.01
C. 0.99
D. 0.995
Homework Answers
Answer :
Given that, N=100 and the population is randomly mating and is obligately outbreeding. We need to calculate heterozygosity, H, for the population.
Thus, expected heterozygosity is :
(D) 0.995

In a large plant population that reproduces by pollinator-assisted random mating (outcrossing), the frequencies of the genotypes GG, Gg and gg are 0.04, 0.32 and 0.64, respectively. Honey bees are under threat of decline. A loss of the bee pollinator forces the population to reproduce exclusively by self-fertilization. What will happen to the frequencies of the homozygous and heterozygous genotypes in this population after one generation of self-fertilization? If the same conditions continue to exist for many generations, what will...

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?

In a large random mating population of plants, 16,800 individuals express the phenotype of the dominant allele (genotypes AA and Aa) and 3200 express the phenotype of the recessive allele (genotype aa). a. What are the frequencies of the two alleles in this population? b. How many plants would be expected to heterozygous? c. You decide to select for the recessive phenotype and pull up 50% of the plants expressing the dominant phenotype. What will be the gene frequencies of...

Imagine that you have a sample of 2 chromosomes in the 2 island model of population structure. Each island has a size 10,000 diploid individuals. Assume that m=0.005. Calculate: (a) The probability of a coalescent event occurring before a migration event if the 2 chromosomes are sampled from the same population. (b) The probability of a coalescent event occurring before a migration event if the 2 chromosomes are sampled from different populations. (c) The probability of a coalescent event occurring...

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...
