Answer:
Assumed Human Genome
The number of possible genotypes are:
= 1,400,000 genotypes
Explanation:
Assumed number of genes in the human genome = 10,000
Approximate world population of people = 7,000,000,000
The number of alleles in each gene = 2 without mutation
A genotype = 2 alleles
The total number of genotypes based on these assumptions = 5,000 (10,000/2)
Possible number of genotypes in the human population = 1,400,000(7,000,000,000/5,000)
