Textbook Question
Chapter 23.3, Problem 3CC
WH AT IF? → Suppose two plant populations exchange pollen and seeds. In one population, individuals of geno-type AA are most common (9.000 AA. 900 Aa. 100 aa), while the opposite is true in the other population (100 AA, 900 Aa, 9.000 aa). If neither allele has a selective advantage, what will happen over time to the allele and genotype frequencies of these populations?

- Q4.7. A large sunflower population is established in a field. The flowers mate randomly, and all individuals are equally likely to survive and reproduce. In this population, 60% of the alleles of a gene for petal color are dominant and 40% of the alleles are recessive. Given this information, after many generations, which of the following options would be most likely? The allele frequencies will be 100% dominant and 0% recessive. The allele frequencies will be 80% dominant and 20% recessive. The allele frequencies will be 60% dominant and 40% recessive. There is no way to predict what the allele frequencies will be.arrow_forwardGive typed full explanationarrow_forwardOnly answer question c pleasearrow_forward
