Widow's peak (W) is a dominant gene for hairline while a straight hairline is recessive (w). Determine the Phenotype frequency,

Genotype frequency and Allele Frequency if a heterozygous dominant crosses with a homozygous recessive

Answer:

Phenotype frequency ( widow's peak ) = 0.5

Phenotype frequency ( straight hairline ) = 0.5

Genotype frequency ( Ww ) = 0.5

Genotype frequency (ww) = 0.5

Allele frequency ( W ) = 0.25

Allele frequency ( w ) = 0.75

Explanation:

Given, Widow's peak (W) is dominant over straight hairline (w).

Parent 1: heterozygous dominant = Ww

Parent 2: homozygous recessive = ww

When Ww X ww :

     W      w

w  Ww   ww

w  Ww   ww

Half of the offspring are Ww and other half are ww so genotype frequency of Ww is 0.5 and of ww is 0.5. Phenotype ratio for widow's peak (Ww) is 0.5 and for straight hairline (ww) is 0.5.

Allele frequency = Number of that allele / Total number of alleles

f(W) = 2 / 8 = 0.25

f(w) = 6 / 8 = 0.75

Multiply 5730 years by 2 since two half-lives have gone by for carbon.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The half-life of a radioactive isotope depicts the measure of time that it takes half of the isotope in an example decay. On account of radiocarbon dating, the half-existence of carbon 14 is 5,730 years  

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.  

In this manner, after  

1 half-life there is 50 % = 1/2 of the first amount left.  

2 half-lives there is 25 % = 1/4 of the first amount left.  

25% is two half-lives.  

Every 50% of life requires 5730 years.  

So two half-lives require 2 × 5730
