Answer:
980,100
Explanation:
let the recessive condition (aa) be represented as q² which is the genotypic frequency = 100/1,000,000 = 0.0001
allelic frequency of a = q = √q² = √0.0001 = 0.01. thus q = 0.01
From the formula p + q = 1 where p is the allelic frequency of A.
since q = 0.01
p = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99. The allelic frequency of A (p) = 0.99
p² = 0.99² = 0.9801. Genotypic frequency of AA= 0.9801
= 0.9801 x 1,000,000 = 980,100 individuals with AA (homozygous normal)
For 2pq genotypic frequency for hetrozygous (Aa).
Using the formula p² + 2pq + q² = 1. Since p² = 0.9801 and q² = 0.0001
2pq = 1 - (p² + q²)
= 1 - (0.9801 + 0.0001)
= 1 - (0.9802)
= 0.0198 = 0.0198 x 1,000,000 = 19,800 individuals with Aa
Extinction of species reduces the number of different species in ecosystems, hence lowering the diversity of living things.
would it be acidic? since it produces lactic acid
