Question

1. There are two alleles at gene B. Genotype B1B1 is at frequency 0.35; genotype B1B2 is at frequency 0.32; genotype B2B2 is at frequency 0.33. What is the frequency of allele B1?

2.

You've determined that the genotypes for gene C in your study population are in Hardy-Weinberg proportions. Alleles C1, C2, and C3 are present. The frequency of the C1C1 genotype is 0.90. What is the frequency of allele C1?

3.

You've determined that genotypes for gene M are at Hardy-Weinberg proportions in your study population. Does that mean that the genotypes for all the other genes in these same individuals are also in Hardy-Weinberg proportions?

These are my answers but i am not sure: e, a, b

a. 0.350

Explanation / Answer

1. e is the right answer, B1 frequency= B1B1+B1B2

B1=0.35+0.32=0.67

B2= B2B2+B1B2

B2=0.33+0.32+0.65

B1+B2=0.67+0.65=1.32

Now allele B1 frequency=0.67/1.32=0.51

2. a is the right answer, we cannot determine with next two genotypes frquency and their recombination

3. b
