5. Tay-Sachs disease is caused by a recessive allele. The frequency of this allele is 0.1 in a population of 3600 people. What is the frequency of the dominant allele, and how many of the 3600 people will be heterozygous for the condition? 6. In a population the homozygous dominant individuals made up 70% of the population, while heterozygous ones made up 21%, and recessive made up 9%. What are the frequencies of the A and a alleles? 7. In a population of 3000 fruit flies, 270 of them contain white eyes. White eye color is a recessive trait. What are the allelic frequencies for the red eye allele and white eye allele? What percent of the population will be heterozygous red? VWhat would be the number of red eyed flies?

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
