Working in pairs, you will test Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium by simulating a population using colored beads. The bag of beads represents the gene pool for the population. Each bead should be regarded as a single gamete, the two colors representing different alleles of a single gene. Each bag should contain 100 beads of the two colors in the proportions specified by the in- structor. Record in the spaces provided below the color of the beads and the initial frequencies for your gene pool. A = color allelic frequency a= color allelic frequency 1. How many diploid individuals are represented in this population? 2. What would be the color of the beads for a homozygous dominant individual? 3. What would be the color of the beads for a homozygous recessive individual? 4. What would be the color of the beads for a heterozygous individual?
