h. Homozygous C'C' individuals cannot produce chlorophyllI. The ability to photosynthesize becomes more critical as seedlings age and begin to exhaust the supply of food that was stored in the seed from which they emerged. How would you expect the frequencies of the C and C'alleles to change beyond day 21?

9. A farmer is testing whether a soybean population is evolving at a locus with two alleles,
C and C', that affect chlorophyll production and leaf color. Students planted soybean
seeds and then counted the number of seedlings of each genotype at day 7 and again at
day 21. Seedlings of each genotype could be distinguished visually because the C and C
alleles show incomplete dominance: C°C° seedlings have green leaves, C°C' seedlings
have green-yellow leaves, and C'c' seedlings have yellow leaves.
