(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of the heterozygous carrier in a population.

Introduction: According to Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, the genotype and allelic frequencies of a population will remain constant from generation to generation under special circumstances. The Hardy Weinberg equilibrium is possible in the situations of large population size, no mutation, no natural selection, and free breeding in the population.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of the heterozygous carrier in a population in the case of autosomal recessive mutation.

Introduction: As mentioned in the concept introduction part (a).

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of the heterozygous carrier in a population if q2=0.09

Introduction: As mentioned in the concept introduction part (a).

(d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of the heterozygous carrier in a population if q2=0.01

Introduction: As mentioned in the concept introduction part (a).

(e)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of the heterozygous carrier in a population if q2=0.10

Introduction: As mentioned in the concept introduction part (a).
