If the actual allele frequencies in a population do not match genotype frequencies predicted by the Hardy Weinberg equation what is the population?
The population is evolving.
In order to use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate genetic variation in a population what conditions must exist in the population?
All organisms must reproduce.
What conditions must exist in the population in order to use the hardy weinberg equation to calculate genetic variation in a population?
All organisms must reproduce.
What parts of the Hardy Weinberg equation represent gene frequency?
The Hardy-Weinberg equation is as follows: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 p & q represent the frequencies for each allele.
Do population geneticists use the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation to determine whether evolution is occurring at a given locus?
Yes. This answer is TRUE. (I am an Anthropology Grad student).
What is q2 in Hardy Weinberg equation?
The frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype.
In which cases does the Hardy Weinberg equation work?
To determine how allele frequency changes
What does the Hardy Weinberg equation p2 represent?
The frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype.
What is q2 representing in the Hardy-Weinberg equation?
The frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype.
What variables must be known in order to use the Hardy -Weinberg equation?
p and q
What is hardy-weinberg equation?
The Hardy Weinberg equation is: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 Where p and q are the initial frequencies for the two alleles in question. This equation suggests that the three possible genotypes (homozygous p, heterozygous pq, and homozygous q) will reach a frequency equilibrium (i.e. stable frequency) in those proportions described above, if the following conditions are met: # Large population # No mutation # No selection# No emigration/immigration # Random mating In other words, evolution-- allelic frequency change within a population-- will not occur if the above 5 conditions are met.
The linearized regression equation for an exponential data set is log ŷ = 0.14x + 0.4, where x is the number of years and y is the population. What is the predicted population when x = 15 Round your answer to the nearest whole number.?
