Answer:

0.483

Explanation:

The given population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. If the gene has two alleles, the sum total of the frequencies of these two alleles will be one.  

Therefore, the total of the frequency of allele B and frequency of allele b will be 1. f(B) + f(b)=1

If the frequency of allele "B" is 0.59, then the frequency of allele "b" will be=1-0.59= 0.41

The frequency of heterozygous genotype in the population= 2pq

p= frequency of the dominant allele

q= frequency of the recessive allele

So, 2pq= 2 x 0.59 x 0.41 = 0.483

Drag each label to the correct location.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Box 1: AA

Box 2: Aa

Box 3: AA

Explanation:

In order to figure out the pedigree, you first have to do a punnet square- kind of like cross-multiplying. EX: For the first box: Aa x AA

For box one, we know that it is Aa, and not AA, because box 2 has to be AA.

We know that because Aa X Aa would give us some "aa" offspring which we do not see in the last generation (see 2nd pic). The only way to get no "aa" offspring is to have an AA X Aa cross.

The relative location of four genes on a chromosome can be mapped from the following data on crossover frequencies Genes B and D
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

3. CABD

Explanation:

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.  The first gene map was constructed by the Alfred Sturtevant on the basis of recombinant produces or recombination frequency which was calculated.

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.

In the given question to construct gene map:

1. Look for the highest recombination frequency that is 50% between the C and D.

2. Now look for second-highest value and place the gene accordingly.

3.Similarly, place the genes in the decreasing order of recombination frequency and this will result that the sequence of the genes is- CABD.

Thus, Option-3 is correct.
