Answer: a. 0.000420
b. 0.00430
c. 0.0001361
d. 0.00619
Step-by-step explanation:
heterozygous formula(2pq)
a. This locus has 2 alleles, so use the heterozygous formula(2pq)
2pq=
2(0.0106)(0.0198)=
0.00041976=
0.00041976=0.000420 ==> round to 3 sig figs
b. This locus has 2 alleles that are equal, so use the homozygous formula(p^2)
p^2=
0.0656^2=
0.00430336=
0.00430336=0.00430 ==> round to 3 sig figs
c. This locus has 2 alleles, so use the heterozygous formula(2pq)
2pq=
2(0.0005)(0.1361)=0.0001361
d. This locus has 2 alleles that are equal, so use the homozygous formula(p^2)
p^2=
0.0787^2=
0.00619369=
0.00619369=0.00619 ==> round to 3 sig figs
