Question 9 1 pts A farmer plants Bt cotton that is genetically modified to produce its own insecticide. Of the cotton bollworms feeding on these Bt plants, only 8% survive unless they have at least one copy of the dominant resistance allele R that confers resistance to the Bt Insecticide. When the farmer fust plants Bt cotton, the frequency of the allele in the cotton bollworm population is 0.4. What will the frequency of the resistance allele be after one generation of cotton bollworms fed on Bt cotton! 0.0375 O 0.87 O 0.402 0 0.598 0.059 O 0.296 0.041
