In a study of genetic variation of the Graceland gene, a researcher finds that there are two alleles in a population. In a large

sample (500 individuals), the frequency of heterozygotes is 0.63. Is the population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? 1. No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5.2. No. The frequency of each genotype would be equal if the population were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.3. No. The frequency of heterozygotes would be 1 if the population was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. No. There would be no heterozygotes if the population were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Answer:

Option 1, No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5

Explanation:

As per Hardy Weinberg’s equilibrium principle, the maximum frequency of heterozytotic individuals occur only when half of the population is dominant and recessive homozygous.  

In other way when the sum of frequency of dominant and recessive species is equal to 0.5, only then the frequency of heterozygotes is maximum which in any case would not be higher than 0.5.  

Hence, option 1 is correct

In two or more complete sentences, compare species diversity and genetic diversity, and glve an example for each one.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Diversity in the genetic characteristic or traits present in a species throughout populations of particular species called genetic diversity. Genetic diversity deals with the number of alleles and genes found between individuals. It is responsible for the adaptation and distribution of species.

Species Diversity is the relative abundance of species found in a given biological organization in a community and interacts with biodiversity by changing biotic factors.

A BbGg x bbgg cross yields a phenotypic ratio of approximately 5 black eyes, green skin : 5 orange eyes, white skin : 1 black ey
kifflom [539]

Answer:

D.Mendel's law of independent assortment is being violated.

Explanation:

According to Mendel in his law of independent assortment, the allele of one gene gets sorted into gametes independently of the allele of another gene. He discovered this when he performed a cross involving two characters i.e. dihybrid cross, which he obtained a F2 phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1. This ratio is only possible if each allele of each gene is represented in each gamete i.e. a dominant allele of the first gene is equally likely possible to be contained with a dominant or recessive allele in the second gene.

If this occurs according to the Mendel's law of independent assortment, a total of four possible combinations of gametes should be produced by each parent organism. When this 4 gametes are crossed in a punnet square, a total of 16 offsprings will be possible.

However, in this case, a total of 12 offsprings were produced, depicting that the alleles did not separate independently of one another to produce four possible gametes.
