What would be the heterozygosity of a population with allele frequencies of 0.6 and 0.4 for the two alleles and an inbreeding coefficient F of 0.40?
F = 1-observed frequency(Aa)/expected frequency(Aa)
Can parent with as and AA genotype give birth to ac genotype?
If the male parent has genotype AS and the female parent has genotype AA what is the offspring?
What does p2 represent in the Hardy-Weinberg equation?
The Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 p is frequency of dominant allele A q is frequency of recessive allele a p + q always equals 1 pp or p2 is probability of AA occurring qq or q2 is probability of AA occurring 2pq is probability of Aa occurring (pq is probability of Aa, qp is probability of aA, so 2pq is probability of all heterozygotes Aa) These add up to 1 because they represent all possibilities. The frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype
Which population in the hardy- weinberg equilibrium will become increasingly smaller if homozgotes selectively mate with individuals of the same genotype?
Heterozygotes. If AA X AA, or AA X AA, is all the mating allowed, then Aa will lose frequency in the population.
How calculate the frequency of alleles in population?
If you have the alleles A and a, then the The hardy-weinberg equation is: A2 + 2Aa + a2 = 1 where a and A represent allele frequencies. So A2 would be the genotype frequency for AA. 2Aa is the genotype frequency for Aa. And a2 is the genotype frequency for aa. Plug in whatever information you have into the equation and you can probably come up with an answer. Save
What is the percent probability that one child of a mother with the genotype AAA and a father with the genotype AAA will have the genotype AAA?
50% AA and 50% Aa
Can an AA and SS combination produce an SS genotype?
No because AA and SS create the genotype AS :)
What are genotype symbols?
i think they represent if you have dominant or recessive traits. For example a symbol for a genotype may be AA or Aa.
Can a child's genotype be different from that of both parents?
A genotype is decided from two alleles. One of these alleles comes from the father, and one comes from the mother. Thus it should be clear that the genotype can be different from both parents. For instance, suppose the father has genotype AA, and the mother has genotype aa. In this case, the child will have genotype Aa, which neither parent has.
What phenotype is produced by AA genotype?
If A represents a dominant allele, then the AA genotype would produce the dominant phenotype.
If the male parent has the genotype AAA and the female parent has the genotype AAA offsprings genotype will be?
The offspring's genotype will be AA. Both parents are homozygous dominant, AA, having only dominant alleles to pass on to their offspring. So each parent can pass on only the dominant allele (A) to its offspring. So the offspring will also be homozygous dominant, AA.
What equation would a biologist use to determine the genotype frequency for the homozygous organisms within a gene pool?
the equation you would use would be Aa=2pq
