1. In a population of 200 field mice, 98 mice are homozygous dominant for brown fur (FF), 84 mice are heterozygous (Ff), and 18

mice are homozygous recessive and have white fur (ff).

FF =

Ff =

ff =

A.
The genotype frequencies can be determined by dividing the number of individuals with a genotype by the total number all the individuals. 
FF genotype frequency:
98÷200=0,49. There are approximately 5 <span>homozygous dominant mice in 10.
Ff genotype frequency:
84</span>÷200=0,42. There are approximately 4 <span>heterozygous mice in 10.
ff genotype frequency:
18</span>÷200=0,09. There are approximately 1 <span>homozygous recessive mouse in 10.

B.
To determine the frequency of an allele we can divide the number of times that the allele appears by the total number of alleles.
F allele frequency:
</span>\frac{(98*2)+84}{400}<span>=0.7
There are 7 F alleles in 10 random alleles.
f </span>allele frequency:
\frac{84+(18*2)}{400}=0.3
There are 3 f alleles in 10 random alleles.<span>
</span>

What kind of mutation would occur if a sequence of DNA is changed from ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Base substitution mutation

Explanation:

Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:

ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG

This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.
