Document Summary
Determine whether the following statement is true or false. Genetic variation can only be assessed qualitatively. a. ) Snapdragons are ideal species for the use of hardy-weinberg principles because: a. ) They exhibit complete dominance for flower pigment b. ) They exhibit incomplete dominance for flower pigment c. ) they exhibit co-dominance for flower pigment d. ) they are nicely coloured. Considering the following chart to answer questions 3-5. Calculate the genotype frequency for each flower phenotype. a. ) Red: 0. 350; white:0. 250; pink: 0. 400; c. ) red: 0. 200; white:0. 400; pink: 0. 250; Calculate the total number of cw and cr alleles: What is the allele frequency of the cr allele? a. ) Which of the following is true about a population at hardy-weinberg equilibrium. a. ) The frequencies of alleles in a population can change as long as genotype frequencies remain constant b. ) The frequencies of alleles and genotypes will remain constant c. ) neither frequencies of alleles or genotypes need to remain constant.
