From the formula-
D = hAb - fA fb
D = coefficient of disequilibrium and fA fb are the frequency of A and b allele respectively
put all the values in the formula
0.15 = hAb - 0.3 * 0.25
0.15 + 0.075 = hAb
hAb = 0.225
QUESTION 13 "Consider two loch (A,B), each with two allelos (A and a, B and b,...
Please answer all of the following questions , and show all work if needed. What term is used for a block of alleles that is inherited together? a Marker b. Polymorphism O c Genome d Haplotype Why are regions between genes (intergenic regions) often chosen as mapping markers in genome-wide association studies? a. Intergenic regions are usually under positive or negative selection b. Variation in intergenic regions is more strongly linked to ethnicity than is variation in genic regions C....
Question 5 [10 marks] For the above gametes, the A locus is under selection and the B locus is neutral. Selection favours the A1 allele with parameters h = 0.5 and s = 0.01, and the initial frequency of A1 is p1= 0.5 (the frequency of A2 is q1 = 0.5). What will be the frequency of allele B1 after selection if its current frequency is p2 = 0.5 and the coefficient of linkage disequilibrium between the loci is D...
Consider two shares, A and B. Share A has an expected return of 10% and a beta of 1.20. Share B has an expected return of 14% and a beta of 1.80. The expected market rate of return is 9% and the risk-free rate is 5%. Which security would be considered a better buy and why? Choose one of the following options. (a) A is a better buy because it offers an expected return of 2.4% greater than B; and...

Beaker A contains 1 mole of iron atoms, and ains I mole of lead atoms. Which statement concerning these samples is I mole Beaker A Beaker B A) Beakers A and B contain an equal volume of atoms. B) Beakers A and B contain equal masses of atoms. C) Beakers A and...
Consider two long, slender rods of the same diameter but different materials. One end of each rod is attached to a base surface maintained at 100°C, while the surfaces of the rods are exposed to ambient air at 20°C. By traversing the length of each rod with a thermocouple, it was observed that the temperatures of the rods were equal at the positions XA = 0.15 m and XB = 0.25 m, where x is measured from the base surface....
1. Continuous trait can be defined as: a. Having a wide range of possible phenotypes b. Having only a few distinct phenotypes c. Traits that are not influenced by environment d. Traits heavily influenced by environment 2. Quantitative geneticists seek to answer general questions such as: a. To what degree do alleles differ at different loci interact with each other? b. How many genes affect the phenotype? c. What are the relative contributions to the phenotype by the genes? d....
2. Consider a market with only two risky stocks, A and B, and one risk-free asset. We have the following information about the stocks. Stock A Stock B Number of shares in the market 600 400 Price per share $2.00 $2.50 Expected rate of return 20% Standard dev.of return 12% Furthermore, the correlation coefficient between the returns of stocks A and B is PABWe assume that the returns are annual, and that the assumptions of CAPM hold. (a) (4 points)...
Exercise 8: Time dependence of a two-level system Consider a two-level system with stationary states a and b with unperturbed energies and E() and corresponding eigenfunctions ф ) and 4°, respectively. Assume E ) > E 0. such that the Bohr angular frequency wi(EEis positive. A time-independent perturbation V is switched on at time t 0 a) Write down the coupled set of equations for the coefficients ca(t) and c(t) of the wave function of the system: Note that we...
Consider two assets A and B. Each has the same expected return. Suppose that the variance of the return on A is 49 and the variance of the return on asset B is 100. The returns on the two assets are correlated with a correlation coefficient of .4. If an investor wants to hold a portfolio of the two assets that has the smallest variance of its return, what fraction of the investor’s wealth should be in asset A? How...
Consider an economy occupied by two households (i- A, B) who are facing the two-period consumption problem. Each household i - A, B is facing the following utility maximization problem: max subject to ci +biy(1+r)bo where Vi and US are household i's exogenous income in period t 1.2. cỈ and c are household i's consumption in period t 1,2. bo,bi is household i's bond holdings of which bo is exogenously given, r is the real interest rate, and 0 <...
