An autosomal recessive disease has an incidence of 1/10,000. What is the approximate frequency of heterozygote carriers for this

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Given

Number of incidences or frequency of an autosomal recessive disease $= \frac{1}{10000}$

As per Hardy Weinberg's equation, frequency of a recessive genotype is $q^{2}$

$q = \sqrt{\frac{1}{10000} }\\ q = \frac{1}{100}$

As per first equation of Hardy Weinberg's -

$p+q=1$

so ,

$p = 1-q\\p = 1-\frac{1}{100}\\p = \frac{99}{100}$

$p^2 = (\frac{99}{100})^2\\p^2 =\frac{9801}{1000}$

As per second equation of Hardy Weinberg's -

$p^{2} + q^{2} + 2pq=1$

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

$\frac{9801}{10000} + \frac{1}{100} + 2pq=1\\2pq = 1-(\frac{9801}{10000} + \frac{1}{100})\\2pq = 0.99%\\OR[tex]2pq=1$ %

$2pq = \frac{1}{100}$

Hence, option B is correct.

Helen [10]

<span>The daughter producing sperm used to fertilize Brittany's eggs should be haploid sperm cells. These cells contain one set of chromosomes. The work haploid also refers to the amount of chromosomes in sperm or an egg cell, sometimes called gametes. In human beings, gametes are generally haploid cells that have 23 chromosomes which each has one chromosome pair that can be found in diplod cells.</span>
