1. On a nice, sunny spring day you decide to go for a walk, where you notice a field of flowers. There are three colors visible: red, pink, and white. You know from you BIO 101 class that this could be the result of incomplete dominance of the red (R) and white (r) alleles for the gene encoding flower color. a. (2 points) You decide to do an experiment and count the number of flowers of each color. There are...

A wildflower native to California, the dwarf lupin (Lupinus nanus) normally bears blue flowers but occasionally bears pink flowers. Flower color is controlled by a single diploid locus, with the blue allele (B) completely dominant over the pink allele (b). In a wild population of lupins, there are 43 pink lupins and 3,398 blue lupins, for a total of 3,441. 3) First, calculate the mean relative fitness of the parental population using the provided relative fitness and genotype frequencies that...

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...

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....

In Andalusian fowl, a single gene determines feather color. Individuals are either white (aa), gray (Aa), or black (AA). The table gives the observed numbers for each phenotype in a wild population of 2,000 birds. Calculate actual allele frequencies, and the three expected phenotypes if the population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium for this locus. Show your work in a way that Phenotype Black (AA) Gray (Aa) White (aa) I can follow your calculations. Draw boxes around each Number 940...

4. A population has two alleles at the height locus. The Tallele is form the tail ons short trait. T is dominant to t. The frequency of the tall phenotype is found to frequency of the short phenotype is found to be 0.64 (64%). Assuming the pop Weinberg Equilibrium, what are the values for p (frequency of the T alle t allele)? Give an actual number. Space for calculations ne i allele is form the tall trait, and the t...

Hi fellow tutor, Please note that from part A-J have been answered. I would like some help please with parts K-N. Thank you Question 5: Applying Mathematical Analysis to Evolutionary Change (17 points) Coloration patterns of a species of snake are controlled by a single gene with two alleles (A= dominant, a=recessive). One population of snakes living in North Carolina was sampled and analyzed using RFLP analysis (restriction fragment length polymorphism), a technique that cuts DNA in specific regions that...

In the Eruopean Land snail, multipe alleles at a single locus determine shell color. The allele for brown (SB) is dominant to the allele for pink (SP) and to the allele for yellow (SY). PInk is recessive to brown, but dominant to yellow. a. In a population of 1000 snails, 160 are yellow. Assuming the populations is Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, calculate th frequency of the yellow allele, r = f(SY) = ? b. Given that p = f(SB) = 1. Calculate...
