In a particular species of frogs, black spots are a dominant trait and their absence is a recessive trait. In a population of fr

ogs, 50 are homozygous for the dominant trait, 34 are heterozygous dominant, and 16 show the recessive trait. Which expression is the correct way to calculate the frequency of the dominant allele?
A. 50/100

B. 84/100

C. 50/200

D. 134/200

E. 100/200

The expression which is the correct way to calculate the frequency of the dominant allele is 134/200. Thus, the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Allelic frequency?</h3>

The allelic frequency may be defined as the sum total of all the alleles of a gene in a population. It represents the overall genetic diversity within a population.

The allelic frequency is calculated by the formula when the genotypes are given in number. It is as follows:

2 × Number of Purebred dominant + Number of heterozygous/ 2× Total number of individuals in a population.

∴ Allelic frequency of dominant allele = 2 × 50 + 34/ 2× 100 = 134/200 = 0.67.

The allelic frequency of the Dominant allele is 0.67 while the allelic frequency of the recessive allele is 0.33.

Therefore, it is well described above.

MrRissso [65]
This is like a humans vs organisms in nature. Consider what makes humans different from any other living organism.

Factors that control human population growth:

food
shelter
goods
water
disease
health
relationships

Factors that control nature population growth:

- food
- shelter
- precipitation
- relationships
- food web
- weather ( natural disasters)

So as you can see humans pretty much has more control over our population growth while nature operates by cycle and a set of systems that man can't create, but can manipulate.
