Suppose that the proportion of the white crest alleles (r) is given by w and that of the Red crest allele (R) is given by p. We have that p+w=1. The probability that an individual has 2 r alleles is given by w*w since for each allele position the probability is w. Only these individuals have a White phenotype. Hence, we get that w^2=
; the right hand side is the proportion of white birds in the total population. Doing the calculations, this yields that w=0.37. From this, we calculate that p=0.63. The possible ways we have heterozygous individuals are the combinations Rr and rR. The probability for each of those is p*w. Thus, the total probability is 2pw. This is equal to 0.466=0.47. This is the fraction of the future population that is going to be heterozygous assuming the conditions of the Handy-Weinberg equilibrium like random reproductive matching etc.
ANSWER:
The effects can be beneficial, harmful, or neutral.

Answer:
The correct option is e
Explanation:
An inversion mutation is a situation in which a sequence of the gene on a chromosome breaks out and rearranges itself from reverse (to the beginning) and then attaches itself back to the point of breakage of the same chromosome.
From the question, mutation changed the gene sequence from ABC*DEFGH to ABC*DGFEH. From this mutation, it can be seen that the gene sequence "EFG" broke-out, rearranged itself from reverse to the beginning as "GFE" and then attached itself back to the points of breakage.
NOTE: This type of inversion is called paracentric inversion since the centromere (represented as * in the question) is not part of the breakage.
the is a definite article meaning that you cannot use it
"an" can only be used before words beginning with vowels
therefore the answer is" a"
If a p53 gene is defective it may cause cell cycle to stop functioning normally. Without this cell cycle check, cells will divide continuosly creating many chromosomal damage.
