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>

8090 [49]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Desertification refers to the formation of barren land from the arid land due to many factors which could be climatic or anthropogenic. The climate factors include no rainfall, arid conditions, less water and water bodies, overgrazing by animals and many others.

As a result of these factors, the plants die or are unable to hold the soil. This leads to loosening of soil which causes soil erosion. This converts the fertile land into infertile land and the land becomes barren.

Thus, desertification is the correct answer.
