1. Consider a population in which two alleles segregate with the following frequencies: p = 0.7, q = 0.3. If no evolutionary forces act on this population, the frequencies of p will equal _______ and q will equal_______ after 30 generations. ORDER MATTERS.
a. p=0.3, q=0.7
b. p=0.5, q=0.5
c. p=0.75, q=0.25
d. p=1, q=0
e. None of the above
2. Assume a biallelic locus in a diploid population has the following genotype frequencies: A1A1 = 0.59; A1A2 = 0.16; and A2A2 = 0.25. What is the observed allele frequency (p) of the A1 allele?
a. 0.67
b. 0.16
c. 0.25
d. 0.33
e. 0.59
Explanation / Answer
The Hardy-Weinberg principle says that allelic frequencies remain constant from 1 generation to the next,or remain in equilibrium, if we assume certain condition, none of the above.
2 the observed allele frequency of A1 allele is p= .59, (e)
