Document Summary
Problem set # 5 due fri. , nov. 14. This is the fourth of six problem sets that will count towards your final grade. The problem set is due at the start of lecture on friday, nov. 14. You may work in groups of up to three people. Please hand in one assignment per group with up to three names listed. Staple multiple pages together no paper clips or folded corners as sheets inevitably get lost. Incorrect answers with some correct work will receive part marks; correct answers with no work shown will not receive full marks. Show (by deriving the equation) that the change in allele frequency across one generation (i. e. p) is p = m(pm pt). Plot both functions on the same graph and copy and paste it into your answer. Explain biologically why the slope is steeper in one case than in the other.
