A true breeding red-flowered plant (P1) and true breeding white-flowered plant (P2) are crossed to get an F1 generation with intermediate color (pink). If the F1s and resulting populations are selfed for 4 generation, what will be the frequency of heterozygotes in PERCENT? (Round the answer to nearest whole number; e.g., 9.3% is 9%)

Step 1: In the F1 generation, when true breeding red-flowered plants (RR) are crossed with true breeding white-flowered plants (WW), all the offspring will be heterozygotes (RW) with a frequency of 100%. Show more…

Additive genetic variation is found when: more than a single locus is involved in determining a trait's value dominance and epistasis are absent from the genotype phenotype map the allelic effects are summed across loci to determine a trait's value a trait's value is heritable more than one hundred loci are involved in determining a trait's value

1.4 Evolution Question (1 point) Charles Darwin described which of the following mechanisms could be called natural selection? Mechanisms which this process includes are: 1. Variation within a population 2. Individuals with variations that are heritable (passed on to the next generation) 3. The biggest and strongest variants in the population will survive and reproduce 4. Those individuals who are better adapted to the environment will have more reproductive success; thus, they will contribute disproportionately to the next generation.

Questions $23-25$ In a certain population of rabbits in the midwestern United States, there are two alleles for coat color, brown and white. Brown is dominant, and white is recessive. The frequency of white-colored rabbits is 9$\% .$ Wolves are also present in the area, and rabbits constitute a major portion of their diet. Foxes recognize prey when they do not blend in to the environment. What is the frequency of the allele for brown coat color in the rabbits? (A) 0.09 (B) 0.03 (C) 0.3 (D) 0.7 (E) 0.9
