The overall allele frequency in the two population is 0.5, therefore p = q = 0.5. (p+q=1)
Fst = Ht - Hs /Ht, (Fst ranges between 0 to 1)
Where Ht = 2pq = 2 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.5 and
Hs = 0 as the size of both the populations is same and heterozygosity is 0.
Therefore, Fst = 0.5 - 0 / 0.5 = 1.

QUESTION 2 Climate change is a threat to the existence of many species. Which of the following limits to natural selection hinders the adaptation of species to the new climate conditions? The developmental plans of plants and animals are too complex. They cannot cope with the warmer temperatures. Mutations happen so frequently that beneficial alleles change before natural selection can substantially increase their frequency Many species not have gene variants in their gene pool that are beneficial in higher temperatures. Climate change happens so...
Could someone check my answers, please? 1. Suppose that a species of fish has split into two populations in a lake: one on the eastern side and one on the western side. How could you determine whether the two populations constitute different species? A. Examine the populations for morphological, color, or other physical differences. B. Examine the populations for different genetic markers and allele frequencies. C. Attempt to breed members from the two populations in captivity. D. Introduce members from...
2. (22 points) A critically endangered salamander species (abbreviated Rs) is now confined to two isolated populations after replacement of much of its pine forest habitat by commercial pine plantations, and other factors like habitat fragmentation, fire suppression, introduced fish, and roads reduced the quality of remaining habitat. Patterns of genetic variation were compared to several more common closely related species (Rc and Ra) with similar life history and ecological traits. Review the provided data to describe and explain the...
In a population of mice a particular locus has two alleles A1 (dominant) and A2 (recessive). There are 126 A1A1, 167 A1A2 and 88 A2A2. Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (3 pts)? In a population of Gragons, there are 3151 A1A1, 1678 A1A2 and 2014 A2A2 individuals. If the environment changes so that the homozygous recessive genotype suffers a reduction of fitness where its fitness is now 0.73, but the other genotypes are unaffected, what will be the frequency...
PLEASE SUMMARIZE THE 4 (numbered 1-4) ARTICLES TO 4 SENTENCES FOR EACH NUMBER. THANKS. 1. Medications have to be safe for mothers-to-be and for their unborn children. Before the authorities will approve a new drug, it must be tested in animal trials on pregnant rodents and, as a rule, pregnant rabbits. Scientists in the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering at ETH Zurich in Basel have now developed a test that allows them to examine a drug's embryotoxicity in cell...

Question 12 Suppose that a decision maker’s risk attitude toward monetary gains or losses x given by the utility function U(x) = (x+10,000)^0.5 If there is a 2.5% chance that the decision maker's car, valued at $5000, will be totaled during the next year, what is the most that she would be willing to pay each year for an insurance policy that completely covers the potential loss of her vehicle? Please round all answers (also intermediate results to 2 decimals)....

1a) Suppose a population of guppies was infected with a
parasite. In that population a mutation results in a parasite
resistant genotype that spreads through the population through
natural selection. A subsequent mutation in the parasite results in
a genotype that is unaffected by the newly evolved resistant guppy
genotype. What is the name of the hypothesis that explains this
host parasite “arms race”.?
1b) What is this name...
