Total population = 1000067
Total number of deaths last year= 38972
Among 38972 dead population,117 were left footed.
A.) Total population in death sample= 38972
Left footed individuals are homozygous recessive, so their genotype is rr
So genotype frequency of rr = 117/38972= 0.003 =q2
So,q = 0.054
We know, p+q =1
So p= 1-q =0.946
Therefore,gene frequencies of the death sample, p =0.946 and q= 0.054
B.) Left footed individuals are homozygous recessive, so their genotype is rr
So genotype frequency of rr = 117/38972= 0.003 =q2
So the rest of the population in the sample are visibly normal individuals,that is they are either heterozygous or homozygous dominant for the syndrome.
38855 individuals are either heterozygous (Rr) or homozygous dominant (RR) for the syndrome.
Genotype frequency of heterozygous (Rr) = 2pq= 2 X0.946 X0.054=0.102
Genotype frequency of homozygous dominant(RR) = p2 =0.946 X 0.946= 0.894
C.) The death rate of the population is = Number of deaths in a year /Total population = 38972/ 1000067 =0.039
D.)i) Proportion of total population that are hidden double foots= 117/ 1000067=0.00012
This the homozygous recessive frequency in the total population= q2
So, q= 0.0109
We know, p+q=1
So, p =0.9891
ii) Heterozygous right footed individual proportion= 2pq = 0.022
iii) Homozygous right footed individual proportion=p2 = 0.978

The occurrence of the NN blood group genotype in the US population is 1 in 400, consider NN as the homozygous recessive genotype in this population. You sample 1,000 individuals from a large population for the MN blood group, which can easily be measured since co-dominance is involved (i.e., you can detect the heterozygotes). They are typed accordingly: BLOOD TYPE GENOTYPE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS RESULTING FREQUENCY M MM 490 0.49 MN MN 420 0.42 N NN 90 0.09 Using the...

i need some help with this lab ASAP please! HUMAN GENETICS It to study because of the relatively long life span and the limited number In addition, the number of chromosome pairs (23) increases the possible number of genetic combinations. It is possible, however, to take a sample from human frequency of a trait and the possible ways a given trait is inherited. populations to estimate the Objectives .Investigate the inheritance of some human traits. Estimate the frequency of selected...
Since the 1980s, HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) has been infecting humans around the world causing the condition known as AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). HIV, like all viruses, needs to enter cells and use their machinery to reproduce and spread. During HIV infection, the virus enters specific cells of the immune system (T-cells) by "docking" onto cell surface proteins, including one called CCR5 Genetic analysis of individuals who are naturally immune (resistant) to HIV have revealed that resistance to HIV...
Hello, Please answer both the parts of these questions. I only had one question left for my subscription. if you cannot answer this please let someone else do it but please whoever is doing it do it correctly- both the parts. Thank you!

Question 1 Which of the following is an accurate statement about the consequences of declining trust in government? Distrust makes people less willing to pay the taxes necessary for public activities. Distrust motivates people to participate in politics through voting, volunteering for political campaigns, and running for office. Distrust makes it easier for the government to help people in times of crisis. Distrust strengthens the government’s ability to defend our national interests in the world economy. Question 3 Generally speaking,...
