You measure the effects of a single allele (T2) on fitness in two populations of mosquito, Population A and Population B. Population A lives near human cities where pesticide is sprayed regularly. The average excess of fitness of the T2 allele (a72) in Population A is 1.0, and the average fitness of the population (w) is 1.0. Population B lives far away from human cities. They are never exposed to pesticides. The average excess of fitness of the T2 allele (a72) in Population B is 1.8 and the average fitness of the population (w) is 1.0. a) In which mosquito population is the frequency of the T2 allele going to change faster? b) What do you predict will happen to the frequency of the T2 allele (pT2) in Population B? It will increase c) What do you predict will happen to the frequency of the T2 allele (pT2) in Population A? It will increase
