Question

bio A dominant allele: Is more important (functionally) that a recessive allele Is significant only in a heterozygotic phenotype for that gene Is significant only in a homozygous dominant phenotype Is always present in greater numbers than a recessive allele Oh man, I can't remember anything from Biology 230 (so what are my chances in this course??) example: If 4% a population (e g., 4 out of 100 individuals) homozygote recessives... 4 are homozygotc dominants for that gene 4 individuals will die 2% arc heterozygotes for that gene the allele frequency for the recessive allele is 0.2 the allele frequency for the dominant allele is 0.8 "Gene frequency" actually means: The frequency of one gene in a population The frequency of one gene in a species The frequency of all alleles in a species The frequency of an allele of one gene in a population The frequency of dominant phenotypes in a population

Explanation / Answer

A Dominant allele;
Ans: D. Is always present in greater numbers than a recessive allele

Example: If 4% a population (4 out of 100 individuals) are homozygous recessive
Ans: D)The allele frequency of recessive allele is 0.2

"Gene frequency" actually means
Ans: D. The frequency of an allele of one gene in a population
