Once upon a time there was a population of hippies living in an isolated commune called Gone. Theyhad been there for generations, and all members were homozygous for a gene that gave them apreference for crafting necklaces out of green beads, so that every individual had the genotype GGat this locus. In another isolated commune, called Yonder, was a population of hippies that had agenetic propensity for making necklaces out of yellow beads, and everyone was homozygous for adifferent allele at the same genetic locus; their genotype was YY. Last year (prior to our current socialisolating) everyone repaired their W buses, and a giant gathering in celebration of the 50thanniversary was held at the Oregon Country Fair. The next few questions will ask you about thesetwo populations that came together at the fair.GenotypeObservedExpected(0-E)(0-E)2(O-E)?/EGG8179.281-79.2-1.81.82=3.243.24/79.2=0.0412.96/105.6=0.GY102105.6102-105.6=-3.6 -3.62=12.9612YY3735.237-35.2=1.81.82=3.243.24/35.2=0.09Total22022019.440.25 What is the p-value you calculated (record two decimals)?You can use this online calculator .

It is the year 1998, and the men and women sailors (in equal numbers) on the American ship the Medischol Bounty have mutinied in the South Pacific and settled on the island of Bali Hai, where they have come into contact with the local Polynesian population. Of the 400 sailors that come ashore on the island, 324 have MM blood type, 4 have the NN blood type, and 72 have the MN blood type.

A botanist studying water lilies in an isolated pond observedthree leaf shapes in the population: round, arrowhead, and scalloped.Marker analysis of DNA from 125 individuals showed theround-leaf plants to be homozygous for allele r1, while the plantswith arrowhead leaves were homozygous for a different allele atthe same locus, r2. Plants with scalloped leaves showed DNA profileswith both the r1 and r2 alleles. Frequency of the r1 allele wasestimated at 0.81. If the botanist counted 20 plants with scallopedleaves in the pond, what is the inbreeding coefficient F forthis population?
Why do scientists believe that the sickle-cell trait has not evolved out of the human population yet considering how deadly it is to be homozygous for the sickle cell gene?
A mountain region has a population of 5,000 mountain goats. You score these animals for the R locus and find that this locus has two alleles, R (dominant) and r (recessive). 3200 individuals are homozygous dominant, 1,600 are heterozygous, and 200 are homozygous recessive. A deadly virus infects all of the RR mountain goats in the population (above), killing all individuals of this genotype and leaving the population with only the rr and Rr mountain goats. a) Calculate the new allele frequencies for this population. Show your work. b) Calculate the new (observed) genotypic frequencies for this population. Show your work. c) Does this population still appear to be at H-W equilibrium? Why or why not? (You do not need to analyze this statistically).
Many modern people have some Neanderthal DNAin their genome, but the Neanderthal alleles are notuniformly distributed across their genome. A person ofEuropean or Asian ancestry typically has 1.5 to 2 percent Neanderthal DNA in their autosomes. However, researchers have never found any Neanderthal alleles on the Y chromosome of a modern human. By one hypothesis, Neanderthal Y alleles disappeared because theywere incompatible with H. sapiens genes. Explain howreduced fitness in hybrids arising from genetic incompatibility could have, over time, led to the elimination of theNeanderthal Y alleles from the H. sapiens gene pool.
You picked up two mice (one female and one male)that had escaped from experimental cages in the animalfacility. One mouse is yellow in color, and the other isbrown agouti. (Agouti hairs have bands of yellow,while non-agouti hairs are solid-colored.) You knowthat this mouse colony has animals with different alleles at only three coat color genes: the agouti (A) ornon-agouti (a) or yellow (AY) alleles of the A gene(AY> A > a; AYis a recessive lethal), the black (B) orbrown (b) alleles of the B gene (B > b), and the albino(c) or non-albino (C) alleles of the C gene (C > c; cc isepistatic to all other phenotypes). However, you don’tknow which alleles of these genes are actually presentin each of the animals that you’ve captured. To determine the genotypes, you breed the two escaped mice together. The first litter has only three pups. One is albino,one is brown (non-agouti), and the third is black agouti.a. What alleles of the A, B, and C genes are present inthe two mice you…
