7. In a study of a Native tribe in North America, researchers found 26 albino individuals in a population of 6000. The type of albinism found is controlled by a single gene with just two alleles, and albinism is recessive to normal skin coloration. a. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, what is the frequency of the allele for albinism in this population? b. What is the frequency of carriers of the albinism allele (i.e., heterozygous) in this population, again assuming Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?

3. Albinism is a rare genetically inherited trait expressed in the phenotype of homozygous recessive individuals (aa). The most characteristic symptom is deficiency in skin and hair pigment production of melanin. This condition can occur among any human group as well as among other animal species. The average human frequency of albinism in North America is about 1 in 20,000. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg, what percentage of people in N.A. carry the albinism allele and probably do not realize it?
