Answer: 0.18

Explanation:

For the alleles, the percentage distribution of each is 'A' (90% = 0.9)

While 'a' (10% = 0.1)

Hence, 0.9 and 0.1 are the respective frequencies of each allele

Now, apply Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation, where heterozygotes are represented by the 2pq term.

Therefore, the number of heterozygous individuals (Aa) is equal to 2pq which equals

2 × 0.9 × 0.1 = 0.18

Thus, the frequency of heterozygote is 0.18, while the percentage distribution in the population is 18%

genetic engineering might allow parent to 'design' their children before birth are you in favor of this? why or why not?​
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

I think it is quite an interesting idea to allow parents to 'design' their children before birth. Because some people have preferences and those preferences are taken very seriously. I wouldn't want to have a baby boy, I would want a baby girl. Although, this could be a waste of money and time because this might be one of the things that are better not to be fixed even if it isn't broken. But, this can also be good, if you desperately need a child with specific features, this can help. Even if I can't seem to find a reason where a child is supposed to have specific features.
