In hamsters, there is a dominant allele (S) for smooth fur and a recessive allele (s) for spiky fur. A unique characteristic of

these alleles is that the heterozygote (Ss) has its own phenotype - rough fur. In this way, we can determind the number of heterozygotes in the population. In a population of 1000 hamsters, 390 have smooth fur (SS), 470 have rough fur (Ss) and 140 have spiky fur (ss).
What are the allele frequencies in this population?

Answer:

<em>What are the allele frequencies in this population?</em>

  • Frequency of S = 0.625  
  • Frequency of s = 0.375

<em>In the next generation of 1000 hamsters, what are the expected genotype frequencies?</em>

  • Frequency (SS) = 0.39          
  • Frequency (Ss) = 0.47          
  • Frequency (ss) = 0.14  

<em>What are the expected number of each genotype in the next 1000 hamsters?</em>

  • Individuals SS =  390
  • Individuals Ss =  469
  • Individuals ss =  140

<em>Have the allele frequencies changed?</em> No, they are the same

<em>Is the population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?</em> Yes, it is.  

<em>The expected genotype frequency of Ss (2pq) in the next generation is expected to be: </em>0.469 (option a)

<em>The expected number of smooth fur hamsters (SS) in the next generation of 1000 hamsters is</em>: 390

If organisms are of the same species, _____.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be options-

1. they share genetic similarities

2. they can interbreed

3. they fall under the same genus

Explanation:

The taxonomic studies help the organism to identify, nomenclature and classification of the organism.

The classification system helps organize the organisms into several groups based on the similarity of the morphological characters. The species is the lowest group of the system which contains the organism which is reproductively isolated from the other group of organism.

If two organism is found to be of the same species shows that they share the same gene pool, belongs to the same genus and they can interbreed.

Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.
