The ability to taste the chemical PTC is determined in humans by a dominant allele T, with tasters having the genotypes Tt or TT

and non-tasters having tt. If you discover that 36 percent of the members of a population cannot taste PTC, then according to the Hardy-Weinberg rule, the frequency fo the T allele should be:
a. 0.4
b. 0.6
c. 0.64
d. 0.8

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The genotypic frequency for tt (q²) = 36% = 36/100 = 0.36

To calculate for the allelic frequency of t which is q, we have to find the square root of q² to do this. Thus

√q² = √0.36 = 0.6 this q = 0.6

The allelic frequency p for the T allele can then be calculated using this formula p + q = 1

Where q is 0.6 thus p= 1 - 0.6 = 0.4.

This the allelic freq of T is 0.4

In a fox population, the allele frequency of a gene for red fur changes from 20 percent to 30 percent.What can be concluded abou
Leni [432]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B. the population is evolving.

It can be explained with the help of natural selection. It is a natural phenomenon by which organisms which are better adapted to the changing environment have better chances to survive and reproduce.

It leads to a change in the allele frequency of that trait in a population.

For example, in the given population, the allele frequency of red fur increases from 20 to 30 percent. That means the population is evolving to adapt to the changing environment.
