Your answer is D. 32

If it has 5 pairs of chromosomes, it could produce 2^5 or 32 unique chromosomes. The number of different gametes is determined by counting the number of heterozygous chromosomes and raising 2 to this power. So, if all the homologous are exactly the same, there would only be 1 possible type of chromosome. 

An organism with NO heterozygous chromosomes, like BB or AAbbCCDDeeFF can produce 2^0 or 1 type of gamete- B or AbCDeF, respectively. An organism with the genotype AaBBccDdee has 2 pairs of hetrerozygous chromosomes (the As and the Ds), so the number of different gametes is 2^2 or 4. So, an organism with 5 pairs of chromosomes, AaBbCcDdEe, could produce 2^5 or 32 gametes: aBCDE, AbCDE, ABcDE, etc.

Suppose a population is carrying a condition controlled by two alleles: R (dominant) and r (recessive). Only homozygous individu
White raven [17]

<span><u>The answer is A. 72.25 percent.</u>

The Hardy-Weinberg principle can be used:</span>

<em>p² + 2pq + q² = 1</em> and <em>p + q = 1</em>

where <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> are the frequencies of the alleles, and <em>p²</em>, <em>q²</em> and <em>2pq </em>are the frequencies of the genotypes.

<span>The <em>r</em> allele (<em>q</em>) is found in 15% of the population:
q = 15% = 15/100
Thus, q = </span><span>0.15

To calculate the <em>R</em> allele frequency (<em>p</em>), the formula p + q = 1 is used:
If p + q = 1, then p = 1 - q
p = 1 - 0.15
Thus, </span><span>p = 0.85

Knowing the frequency of the <em>R</em> allele (<em>p</em>), it is easy to determine the frequency of the RR genotype (p²):
p² = 0.85² = 0.7225

Expressed in percentage, p² = 72.25%.</span>
