You sample a population of 200 mice and find 140 Aa individuals, 50 AA individuals, and 10 aa individuals. What are the genotype frequencies for Aa, AA, and aa, respectively (the population may or may not be in HWE at this locus)? Group of answer choices Can’t answer without knowing the allele frequencies in the population 2pq, p squared, q squared (#Aa) (1), (#AA)(2), (#aa) (2) 0.7, 0.25, 0.05
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.
