Answer:

Earth formed about 4.6 billion years ago during the birth of our solar system. ... During the next major phase of earth's formation cooling and differentiation of the Earth's layers occurred. Dense materials sank to the center, forming an iron-nickel rich core. Lighter buoyant silicate-rich magma rose to the surface.

A locus that affects susceptibility to a degenerative brain disease has two alleles, V and v. In a population, 16 people have ge
Pie

Answer:

Yes, the population is evolving

Explanation:

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium states that a population is not evolving if it is in hardy weinberg equilibrium as the alleles frequency do not change over time in generations.

In mathematical equation, the genotype frequency will be -P²+2Pq+q²=1 and allele frequency will be p+q=1, where p = dominant allele and q will be recessive allele.

In the question, since the observed genotype are-

P² - VV= 16

2Pq- Vv- 92

q²- vv- 12

<u>1. Calculate allele frequency</u>

Now we will calculate if the expected value is same or close or not.

We will calculate allele frequency

Population has 120 individuals which means it has - 240 alleles.

In which V (p) will be- 32 +92= 124 allele

p- dominant allele/ total allele=  124/ 240 = 0.52

P= 0.52

q will be 1-0.52= 0.48

<u>2. Expected genotype frequency</u>

Now we will calculate expected genotypic frequency.

P²- 0.52 X 0.52= 0.27

2Pq = 2 x 0.52x 0.48 =  0.5

q²= 0.48 x 0.48 =  0.23

<u>3. Expected progeny </u>

P²= 0.27 x 120= 32 VV

2Pq= 0.5 X 120= 60 Vv

q²= 0.23 x 120= 28 vv

Since the observed value is not equal to the expected value therefore the population is not in Hardy- Weinberg equilibrium and the population is evolving.

Thus, Yes, the population is evolving is correct.
