In a population of vipers, 140 are non-poisonous (genotype tt), 680 are mildly poisonous (genotype Tt) and 1180 are very poisonous (genotype TT) Calculate f(T) and f(t) without assuming random mating, as you would need to do if conducting a Chi squared analysis to determine whether mating is random in this population Part 1 What is f(T)? What is f(t)? Part 2 In a Chi squared test of this population for random mating, what is the expected number of mildly poisonous snakes? In doing this calculation, round off frequencies to the hundredths place. 720 680 360
Genetic Variation
Genetic variation refers to the variation in the genome sequences between individual organisms of a species. Individual differences or population differences can both be referred to as genetic variations. It is primarily caused by mutation, but other factors such as genetic drift and sexual reproduction also play a major role.
Quantitative Genetics
Quantitative genetics is the part of genetics that deals with the continuous trait, where the expression of various genes influences the phenotypes. Thus genes are expressed together to produce a trait with continuous variability. This is unlike the classical traits or qualitative traits, where each trait is controlled by the expression of a single or very few genes to produce a discontinuous variation.
