Answer:

Cladistics

Explanation:

Cladistics is the most scientific method used to classify organisms that are categorized into distinct groups or 'clades'. The cladistic approach is derived from the studies made by the entomologist Emil Hans Willi Hennig (1913-1976). This methodology is based on the identification of the most recent common ancestor (MCRA), where organisms are classified based on shared traits (i.e., how similar they are). By using this method it is possible to draw a cladogram, i.e, an evolutionary tree that exhibits the ancestral relationships among organisms.

A rare genetic disease which is due to a recessive allele (a) and that is lethal when homozygous, occurs within a specific popul

valkas [14]

Answer:

40 individuals

Explanation:

The homozygous recessive percentage is equal to q2.

Recessive genotype frequency, q 2 is 1/1000000 = 0.000001

therefore, q = $\sqrt{q2}$ = $\sqrt{0.000001 }$ = 0.001 = allele "a" frequency

and p + q = 1, thus, p = 1 – q = 1 – 0.001 = 0.999

thus, the frequency of allele a = q = 0.001 and the frequency of allele A = p = 0.999

Carriers are heterozygous and are equal to 2pq.

So, 2pq = 2 x 0.999 x 0.001 x 20,000 = 39.96 (round of to 40)

Hence, 40 individuals will be expected to carry the recessive allele.
