All right, so for this question we're given that population size is 100 ,000, so it's a population size is perhaps 10, 8, okay, and mutation rate is 0 .001%.
00:21
So therefore, the number of mutants is going to be population size, divide that by mutation rates, sorry, developed by 100 multiplied by the mutation rate, okay? so this is perhaps 10, 2 power 8 divided by 0 .001, multiply that by, or rather, that should be 100, divided that by 0 .001.

You have around a thousand mutants with this rate of mutation.
01:10
Now, what circumstances will lead to this population or there are mutations increasing? decreasing or remaining constant.
01:30
So you see, if you have this question at hand, then it's imperative that you understand that a particular mutation may be beneficial, harmful, or neutral for a population...
