8. Describe the changes in genotypic frequencies. (2 points) 9. Compare your final allelic and genotypic frequencies with those of the starting population. (2 points) 10. If you can, formulate a general summary statement or conclusion. (2 points) 11. Would you expect your results to be the same if you had chosen different starting allelic frequencies? Explain. (2 points) 12. Critique your experimental design. (2 points)

Step 1
Describe the changes in genotypic frequencies: (2 points) Without specific data, I cannot describe the exact changes in genotypic frequencies. However, in general, genotypic frequencies can change over time due to factors such as natural selection, genetic drift, Show more…

Describe the four microevolutionary forces that lead to changes in allele frequencies across generations (2 pts each). In the description for each indicate whether the force supplies new variation or alters existing variation and whether the force is expected to increase or decrease variation within populations. Rank the forces in terms of the amount of time required to cause changes in allelic variation (2 pts).

Question 1: Would changing the number of immigrants per generation (e.g. migrating 5 or 20 individuals each time) affect the changes in frequencies? Explain your reasoning. Yes, because there would be a greater chance to mix the alleles. Question 2: How does the differences in starting allelic frequencies between the two populations affect the changes in frequencies? Explain your reasoning.

The genotypic and allelic frequencies of a population at the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is described by the equation: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 Analyze the pairing given below. If properly paired indicate "A" but if improperly paired indicate "B" for your answer. p2 : frequency of homozygous dominant B A
