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).

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 is a cells DNA like the books in a library
tino4ka555 [31]
Think of it this way:

DNA inside cells store all the genetic information on a person's looks, eye colour, hair colour etc. It makes them unique. The analogy of being like books in a library basically suggests that in a library there is so much information and every book is different with different knowledge... That's basically what DNA is; millions of different information things.
