Question

Now assume two heterozygote cats mated, what would be the expected genotypic frequencies of the offspring? (Hint: you can use a Punnett square format and use the allele frequency of the parental gene pool in place of the gametes) Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? How do you know? After genetically sampling the offspring, you find that p²=.74. How would you explain your findings? (Hint: think about the assumptions of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium) 4. In the US, 1 in 1700 Caucasian newborns have cystic fibrosis. The normal allele ??C?? is dominant over the recessive allele ??c,?? therefore an individual must be homozygous recessive to have the disease. What percent of the population described above has cystic fibrosis? If the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, how many newborns would have the disease in a population of 10,000? 5. The trait for ??male-pattern baldness?? is a recessive trait encoded by ??b.?? A survey conducted by the Hair Club for Men found that out of 1000 men, 360 had male pattern baldness, and 480 were heterozygous for the trait. What are the phenotypic ratios for the trait? Using this information, find the allele frequencies for B and b?
