True or false for the following: 1. The frequency of carriers (heterozygotes) in the population would likely be 35%. 2. Based on the gene alone, if you ran into a cat in a dark alley on this island, the odds of it being black would be slightly higher than 50%. 3. A new species of hawk appeared on the island and preferred to eat only brown cat. The hawks ate the brown cats into extinction and then left to find brown cats elsewhere. Brown cats would be extinct on the island and all cats in future generations would be black. 4. If the population is Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the brown allele will likely increase in frequency because it is clearly favored.
