The number of times an allele occurs in a gene pool?
Think frequent. More of the allele in the populations gene pool and there is a change in the alleles frequency. Some goes for less of the allele.
What type of allele dominance occurs when both the alleles are active and expressed?
When both the alleles are expressed, it is called co-dominance or mixed dominance.
What is meant by alleles?
Allele frequency, or gene frequency, is the proportion of a particular allele (variant of a gene) among all allele copies being considered. It can be formally defined as the percentage of all alleles at a given locus in a population gene pool represented by a particular allele.
What is meant by the allele frequency?
An allele frequency measures how common certain alleles are in the population. "The distribution of alleles in a population" -Apex
What type of allele dominance occurs when both alleles are active and expressed?
Either Co-dominance, where different parts of the organism display the different alleles (i.e. red and white flowers), or a combination of the two alleles (i.e. red and white alleles make pink flowers)

What is meant by allele frequence?
How often a certain allele (or trait) occurs in a certain population.
In a certain population the dominant phenotype of a certain trait occurs 91 of the time what is the frequency of the dominant allele?
p^2+2pq=.91-->q^2=.09-->q=.3-->p=.7-->p^2=.49 p^2+2pq+q^2=1.49+2pq+.09=12pq=.42 the number of AA alleles =140-->49*2 + 42*1=140the number of AA alleles=60-->42*1 + 9*2=60 So the frequency of the dominant allele is equal to the number of dominant alleles over the total number of alleles.Therefore 140/200=.7.7 is frequency of the dominant allele
What is allel frequency?
Allele frequency is the frequency at which a particular allele occurs in a population. For example, the genes for eye color involves many alleles: blue, brown, green, hazel. etc. Allele frequency refers to how often each expression shows up in a population, so for example in America the allele frequency for blue eyes may be 25%, hazel 15%, green 5% and brown 50%, with 5% left for other minor alleles. This would mean approximately 50% of the alleles for eye color in the American population are the "brown" variant.
How are two traits that have Dominant and Recessive alleles inherited?
The trait received is recessive.
Occurs when each allele is equally emphasized?
If this happens, the dominant allele masks the recessive allele.
Explain how the founder effect can cause a change in the frequency of alleles in a population?
Genetic variation, variation in alleles of genes, occurs both within and among populations. Genetic variation is important because it provides the "raw material" for natural selection.
