Answer 1

Answer #1

The mating between male with genotype A1A2 and female with genotype A1A3 produce the following four gametes.

I have solved the above question in the following picture below, please take a look-

The probability that A3 will be passed to the offspring is 50%. please see the image for better explanation.

hente male Male A.AZ female. female. A₂A3 Parents - etes A3 offspring Ate Asta) AzAz AA) 50% passed So, in 50% of the offspri

Hope it helps, Good luck !!!!

Assume that the allele frequencies of alleles A1 and A2 were 0.2 and 0.8 in one subpopulation and 0.4 and 0.6 in another subpopulation. Assuming that there are Hardy-Weinberg proportions within each subpopulation and that the subpopulations are of equal size, what would be the observed heterozygosity if these populations were lumped? How does this compare to what would be expected if there were one random-mating population?? Calculate the same values for the three heterozygotes when the subpopulations had frequencies...

Give the Hardy–Weinberg expected genotypic frequencies for an autosomal locus with three alleles, where the frequencies of alleles A1, A2, and A3 are defined as p, q, and r, respectively. Set the problem up and show your work. Tay–Sachs disease is an autosomal recessive disorder. Among Ashkenazi Jews, the frequency of Tay–Sachs disease is 1 in 3600. If the Ashkenazi population is mating randomly for the Tay–Sachs gene, what proportion of the population consists of heterozygous carriers of the Tay–Sachs...

Question 2: In an outbreeding diploid population, an autosomal locus has two alleles, A1 and A2. You observe the allele frequencies of A1 and A2 are both equal to 0.5, and the relative fitnesses of the three genotypes (A1A1, A1A2, and A2A2) are equal to 2, 1.5, and 1, respectively. A) Which allele will become fixed in this population? (1 point) **The recessive beneficial allele A2A2 will eventually become fixed in the population (A2A2=1) B) What is the allele frequency...

A mainland population of 1000 blue iguanas have the neutral alleles A1 and A2 with frequencies of A1 = 0.50 and A2 = 0.50. A new population of blue iguanas is founded on Lizard Island with a population size of 10 males and 15 females. The neutral alleles A1 and A2 are present in the population with frequencies of A1 = 0.30 and A2 = 0.70. Migrants begin moving from the mainland to Lizard Island at a rate of 1...

In gerbils, the gene that specifies coat color is sex‑linked and has multiple alleles, as follows: B ‑ black, br ‑ brown, by ‑ yellow, and b ‑ albino. The allele br is incompletely dominant over by, the combination br by giving tan color; otherwise, dominance is in the order given ‑‑ B, br, by, b. (For your information, gerbils are mammals.) A black gerbil mated with a yellow gerbil gave one brown male and one black female offspring. a....

4.3-4. The gene for eye color in a certain male fruit fly has alleles (R, W). The gene for eye color in the mating female fruit fly also has alleles (R, W). Their offspring receive one allele for eye color from each parent. If an offspring ends up with either (R, R), (R, W), or (W, R), its eyes will look red. Let X equal the number of offspring having red eyes. Let Y equal the number of red-eyed offspring...
