Land 0.18 0.49 0.33 0.06 0.22 0.72

If you sample an indiv who is C1C1D2D2, find the probabiltiy of him coming from the popualtation at sand. 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Probability obtained.

The probability of coming from the population at sand is 

                      C1C1  C1C2  C2C2   D1D1  D1D2    D2D2  Total 

Sand               0.07    0.39   0.54     0.25     0.50        0.25   2.00

P(C!C1D2D2 coming from sand) =(0.07+0.25)/2 = 0.16
