Brightspace Help Center Question 19 0/1 point Assume there is a new population of individuals who are all of the Genotype AA. So the allelic frequency of 'A'-1.0. Mutation results in a second allele 'a' appearing in the population. The mutation rate (?) of A' to 'a' : 0.00004 (4 x 105). There is also a known back mutation (v) rate of a to A' of 0.00001 (1 x 105). The population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with the exception of mutation. (a) After one generation, the allelic frequency of the 'A' allele will be? b) After one generation, the allelic frequency of the 'a' allele will be? (c) The equilibrium frequency for the 'A" allele will be? (d) The equilibrium frequency for the 'a" allele will be? (e) Is this a stable or an unstable equilibrium? (f) What is the difference between a stable and unstable equilibrium?

Explanation / Answer

After 1generation

Alleilic frequency of A is 1x .00001=.00001

Allelic frequency of a is. 00004

This is unstable equillibrium
