How many generations of natural selection will it take for the frequency of a recessive lethal allele to drop from 17% to 0.1%?
Blood types: The blood type O negative is called the "universal donor"
type, because it is the only blood type that may safely be transfused into
any person. Therefore, when someone needs a transfusion in an emergency
and their blood type cannot be determined, they are given type O negative
blood. For this reason, donors with this blood type are crucial to blood
banks. Unfortunately, this blood type is fairly rare; according to the Red
Cross, only 7% of U.S. residents have type O negative blood. Assume that a
blood bank has recruited 23 donors.
Part 1 of 2
(a) What is the mean number of donors who have type O negative
blood? Round the answer to tw
de
nal places.
The mean number of donors who have type O negative blood
is O.
Part 2 of 2
(b) What is the standard deviation of the number of donors who have
type O negative blood? Round the answer to four decimal places.
The standard deviation of the number of donors who have type
O negative blood isD.

- Population Genetics In the study of population genetics, an important measure of inbreeding is the proportion of homozygous genotypesthat is, instances in which the two alleles carried at a particular site on an individuals chromosomes are both the same. For population in which blood-related individual mate, them is a higher than expected frequency of homozygous individuals. Examples of such populations include endangered or rare species, selectively bred breeds, and isolated populations. in general. the frequency of homozygous children from mating of blood-related parents is greater than that for children from unrelated parents Measured over a large number of generations, the proportion of heterozygous genotypesthat is, nonhomozygous genotypeschanges by a constant factor 1 from generation to generation. The factor 1 is a number between 0 and 1. If 1=0.75, for example then the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 25 in each generation In this case, after 10 generations, the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 94.37, since 0.7510=0.0563, or 5.63. In other words, 94.37 of the population is homozygous. For specific types of matings, the proportion of heterozygous genotypes can be related to that of previous generations and is found from an equation. For mating between siblings 1 can be determined as the largest value of for which 2=12+14. This equation comes from carefully accounting for the genotypes for the present generation the 2 term in terms of those previous two generations represented by for the parents generation and by the constant term of the grandparents generation. a Find both solutions to the quadratic equation above and identify which is 1 use a horizontal span of 1 to 1 in this exercise and the following exercise. b After 5 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous? c After 20 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous?arrow_forwardShow that the probability of drawing a club at random from a standard deck of 52 playing cards is the same as the probability of drawing the ace of hearts at random from a set of four cards consisting of the aces of hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades.arrow_forwardresearcher is creating a new treatment protocol for Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a form of preleukemia.

- Trichotillomania is an illness characterized by the repeated urge to tear out hair, eyelashes, facial hair, nose hair, pubic hair, eyebrows, or other body hair, sometimes resulting in noticeable bald patches. A pharmaceutical company is trying to decide whether to market a drug to treat trichotillomania. The pharmacist who designed the drug believes it is very effective, especially when combined with therapy, whereas a researcher who did research on a sample of people suffering from the disorder is less convinced. Each of them created graphs to support his or her position. Determine whether the pharmacist or the researcher created each graph. (Hint: Decide whether the graph minimizes or maximizes the effect of the drug first. Then decide who would want to do that, and choose your response from the list of possible combinations.)arrow_forwardScenario: A researcher wants to study the effects of childhood stress, genetics, and their interaction for predicting aggression in adults. The researcher recruited 40 subjects, 20 reported they had no childhood stress and 20 reported they experienced severe childhood stress. The researcher is specifically interested in looking at the MAOA gene, because different versions of this gene are linked to aggression. The researcher conducts a genetic test and finds that half of subjects in each group have a gene for low MAOA activity and the other half have the gene for high MAOA activity. The researchers have the subjects self-rate their aggressive behavior over the last 6 months. 1. Given the scenario above, what are the null and alternative hypotheses? 2. Experimental design:a.

- It is now generally accepted that cigarette smoking causes heart disease, lung cancer, and many other dis- eases. However, in the 1950s, this idea was controversial. There was a strong association between smoking and ill-health, but association is not causation. R. A Fisher advanced the "constitutional hypothesis: there is some genetic factor that disposes you both to smoke and to die. To refute Fisher's idea, the epidemiologists used twin studies. They identified sets of smoking-discordant monozygotic twin pairs. "Monozygotic" twins come from one egg and have identical genetic makeup; "smoking-discordant" means that one twin smokes, the other does not. The researchers collected data on which twin dies first, the smoker or the non-smoker. The data from a Finnish twin study are shown in the following table. Smokers Non-smokers All Causes 17 5 Coronary heart disease Lung Cancer 9 According to the first line of the table, there were 22 smoking-discordant monozygotic twin pairs where at…arrow_forwardCat Ownership and Schizophrenia Could owning a cat as a child be related to mental illness later in life? Toxoplasmosis is a disease transmitted primarily through contact with cat feces, and has recently been linked with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses. Also, people infected with Toxoplasmosis tend to like cats more and are 2.5 times more likely to get in a car accident, due to delayed reaction times. The CDC estimates that about 22.5% of Americans are infected with Toxoplasmosis (most have no symptoms), and this prevalence can be as high as 95 % in other parts of the world. A study' randomly selected 262 people registered with the National Alliance for the Mentally III (NAMI), almost all of whom had schizophrenia, and for each person selected, chose two people from families without mental illness who were the same age, sex, and socioeconomic status as the person selected from NAMI. Each participant was asked whether or not they owned a cat as a child. The results showed that…arrow_forwardpls helparrow_forward
- Echinacea is widely used as an herbal remedy for the common cold, but does it work? In a double-blind experiment, healthy volunteers agreed to be exposed to common-cold-causing rhinovirus type 39 and have their symptoms monitored. The volunteers were randomly assigned to take either a placebo or an echinacea supplement daily for 5 days following viral exposure. Among the 103 subjects taking a placebo, 88 developed a cold, whereas 44 of the 48 subjects taking echinacea 1 developed a cold.arrow_forwardIt's on the photoarrow_forward
