Question 7 You Ve Been Researching A Small Population Of Mice That Appear To Have A Mendelian Trait With Respect To The 1 (54.34 KiB) Viewed 12 times

QUESTION 7 You've been researching a small population of mice that appear to have a Mendelian trait with respect to the color of their fur. The dominant allele, A1, confers dark fur, while the recessive allele, A2, results in light fur. You round up a very large group of biology students who want extra credit to help you catch, genotype, and release 1300 mice. You have the following genotype chart: A1A1 435 QUESTION 8 A1A2 165 There are not very many heterozygotes, and you suspect that there may be some kind of selection acting against them for some reason. The null hypothesis is that there is no selection on this trait and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to fur color. Your first step is to find the allele frequencies. To the nearest two decimal places, what is the allele frequency for the A1 allele? Still working with the same group of mice: A1A1 435 A2A2 700 A1A2 165 A2A2 700 There are not very many heterozygotes, and you suspect that there may be some kind of selection acting against them for some reason. The null hypothesis is that there is no selection on this trait and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to fur color. You next want to know how many heterozygotes are predicted by the Hardy-Weinberg equation. To the nearest whole number, how many heterozygotes would you expect if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
