Answer:

Bathypelagic Zone

Explanation:

This zone occurs above the Abyssopelagic zone and below the Mesopelagic zone. The zone is dark because little light reached this region. Only a small proportion of the higher frequency visible light (red light)reaches this region. The sea creatures in this region will be predominantly back or red in color.

Considering the same population of cats as in Part A, what is the expected frequency of each genotype (TLTL, TLTS, TSTS ) based

zaharov [31]

Answer:

P = f(TLTL) = 0,16

H = f(TLTS) = 0,48

Q = f(TSTS) = 0,36

Explanation:

Hello!

The allele proportion of any locus defines the genetic constitution of a population. Its sum is 1 and its values can vary between 0 (absent allele) and 1 (fixed allele).

The calculation of allelic frequencies of a population is made taking into account that homozygotes have two identical alleles and heterozygotes have two different alleles.

In this case, let's say:

f(TL) = p

f(TS) = q

p + q = 1

Considering the genotypes TLTL, TLTS, TSTS, and the allele frequencies:

TL= 0,4

TS= 0,6

Genotypic frequency is the relative proportion of genotypes in a population for the locus in question, that is, the number of times the genotype appears in a population.

P = f(TLTL)

H = f(TLTS)

Q = f(TSTS)

Also P + H + Q = 1

And using the equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the genotypic frequencies of equilibrium are given by the development of the binomial:

$p^{2} = f(TLTL)$

$2pq = f(TSTL)$

$q^{2} = f(TSTS)$

So, if the population is in balance:

$P = p^{2}$

$H = 2pq$

$Q = q^{2}$

Replacing the given values of allele frecuencies in each equiation you can calculate the expected frequency of each genotype for the next generation as:

$f(TLTL) = P = p^{2} = 0,4^{2} = 0,16$
