How is a gene pool described in a quantitative way?arrow_forward1) Many organisms have the ability to reproduce asexually as well as perform sexual reproduction. A Scientist, John Smith, was conducting research on aphids that can undergo both methods of reproduction. He determined the males in his population had fertilization rate of 1.8 and a relative fitness of outcrossed offspring was 1.1. a) What is the equilibrium frequency of males in this population? b) Is this population stable equilibrium and why?arrow_forward
