Metamorphic rocks are formed from existing rocks, when it is exposed to great heat and pressure. This process would destroy any fossils inside the already existing rock.

There are 100 cats in a population that follows hardy-weinberg conditions. 4 cats display a recessive white coat color. how many
mr Goodwill [35]

We know that Hardy-Weinberg conditions include the following equations:


p^{2}+2pq+ q^{2}=1


where p+q=1


And where p = dominant, and q = recessive; this means that p^{2} is equal to the homozygous dominant, 2pq is the heterozygous, and q^{2} is the homozygous recessive .


So we have 100 total cats, with 4 having the recessive white coat color. That means we have a ratio of \frac{4}{100} or 0.04. Let that equal our q^{2} value.


So when we solve for q, we get:


q^{2}=0.04

q=\sqrt{0.04} =0.2


Now that we have our q value, we can use the other equation to find p:


p+q=1


p+0.2=1


p=0.8


So then we can solve for our heterozygous population:


2pq=2(0.8)(0.2)=0.32


This is the ratio of the population. So we then multiply this number by 100 to get the number of cats that are heterozygous:


0.32*100=32cats


So now we know that there are 32 heterozygous cats in the population.
