Answer:
0.1460
Explanation:
Total population size= 411 + 911 + 800 = 2122
Let's assume that the population is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium.
Under these conditions, frequency of recessive allele (a)= 911 x 2 + 800 / 2122 x 2 = 2622/4244= 0.6178
.
This is because each homozygous recessive genotype has two copies of the recessive allele while each heterozygous dominant genotype has one copy of the recessive allele.
For this population to be under Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium, frequency of dominant allele (A) = 1- 0.6178= 0.3822
Frequency of homozygous dominant genotype (AA) = 0.1460
Answer:
E) founder effect and genetic drift
Explanation:
Dunkers moved to Pennsylvania and inhabited a new area to develop a new population. This new population might not have the same gene pool and the same allele frequencies for all the genes as present in the original population. The change in the allele frequencies of a population due to the colonization of a new area by a few members is called the founder effect.
The small size of the new population of Dunkers present in Pennsylvania was more likely to be affected by any chance event which could have added more uniqueness to their gene pool. This is called genetic drift. Therefore, the genetic uniqueness of their population from all the other populations and from their original population might be the result of founder effect and genetic drift.
