What are the five key assumptions that are necessary for the H-W Theorem to be valid?
- Write the Hardy-Weinberg equation:
- Dominant allele “R” has a frequency (p) of 0.45 in a particular gene pool. Calculate the following showing all your work and using the proper variables for each value (e.g. p, q, p2, q2, 2pg).
- The frequency of allele “r” in that same gene pool?
- The proportion of the population that has the genotype RR.
- The proportion of the population that has the genotype Rr.
- The proportion of the population that has the genotype rr.
- If 17% of a population displays the recessive trait for Disease B, what are the frequencies of the recessive allele “b” and the dominant allele “B” in the gene pool?
