AG 3301 - Genetics Pop Gen Practice problems Answer the following questions. Be sure to show...
1) (a) A single gene in horses determines coat (hide) color. Palomino (‘dove’) horses are heterozygous (Aa), while homozygous recessive (aa) are cremello, and homozygous dominant (AA) are chestnut. A horse rancher buys 80 palomino horses and 20 cremello horses and lets them breed free. (a) (10 pts) What are frequencies of alleles and genotypes in THIS (parent) generation? Are all genotypes represented? Show your calculations. Is the population at this moment (i.e. in THIS generation) in Hardy-Weinberg balance or...

10. Hemophilia is a sex-linked disorder. A normal woman whose father was hemophiliac marries a man who is not homophiliae What percentage of their son would be would be expected to be hemophiliac? What percentage of their daughters word expected to be hemophiliacs? Again, show your work, using a Punnett Square 11. Given parents with the genotypes AaBbCcDdEe and AaBbccDdEe. what is the probability of them producing offspring with the genotype of AABCDE 12. In humans, widow's peak...

questions Please. WILL GIVE GOOD RATING
1. Wild type blue-eyed mary has blue flowers. Two genes control the pathway that makes the blue pigment: The product of gene W turns a white precursor into magenta pigment. The product of gene M turns the magenta pigment into blue pigment. Each gene has a recessive loss-of-function allele: w and m, respectively. A double heterozygote (Ww Mm) is self-pollinated. What proportion...
Can someone please help me with the following questions. Please provide an answer/explanation especially for the first three. ?. Suppose a population of flour beetles has 1,000 individuals. Normally the beetles are red; however, this population is polymorphic for a mutant autosomal body color, black, designated by bb. Red is dominant to black, so BB and Bb genotypes are red. Assume the population is at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, with equal frequencies of the two alleles. What would be the allele frequencies...
